Any danger in reversing when they are not suposed to be?

Thought mine only tested ac

Have a curtesy light that blew out. Was originally halogen. Looks like it singed the carpet under it, and melted the plastic housing. Tried to replace the entire light, but with an LED. Did not light up. Any way to see if there is power from the wires? Or any other suggestions as to...

Water supply check valve on the back of my vacuflush. Anyone have any idea what this does? Has a black water hose attached to it. Thanks!

Want to get my "6-pack". Anyone have any good recommendations of an online course? I do not have a schedule that allows me to go to a classroom. Hard to know what the individual courses are like just from their websites. Thanks!

Cruising question.Need some opinions. Was in the Intercoastal Waterway last weekend, a bit north of Venice, FL. Speed limit there is 25 mph. I was going about 22 mph.Felt I was doing it safely. Was running straight, not zig zagging around other boats. There were boats out there, but I...

Hello all! Have the Vimar Idea CO monitors. Can not find ANY info online about them. Are they still in business of CO monitors? Couldn't even find it on their website. Is this rectangular unit the actual sensor or is it just a display. Have one in the salon and owner's room as well. My...

Stupid question, but could it be on the DC side? Or just something AC. And is it something where the breaker has to be on?

Thanks everyone. Of course the marina wants to blame my boat. Why is the Charger called a 100 amp charger?

Breaker at the dock is tripping.

The boat has a single, 50 amp cord. I believe it is a 3 prong, but can not remember for sure. So being that it is a 100 amp Charger, and a 50 amp cord to shore power, would that be a problem?

I am certifying now that I know nothing much about electrical stuff. Have a 50 amp cord. Our marina plugs into 50 amps power. Our battery charger is a "Charles 100 amp" charger. Shore power keeps tripping. Does the Charles 100 amp need a 100 amp outlet to work properly? Could it be "asking...

Different boat- haven't updated profile. It's a 50 amp. Tried a neighbor's power station, still trips. Tried isolating the device that may be causing the trip- still trips. What about--- If I bought a Y adapter. Maybe taking my 50 amp cord from the boat-- and splitting to 2 30amp to plug...
