I have a 2003 Diplomat 38PBDD. Water leaking in from the front corner of the main slideout has resulted in the growth of some type of mold or fungus or moss on the carpet between the steering column and the drivers side and front walls. This living thing is apparently rotting (eating) the OSB floor underlayment. It is orange in color and has a fuzzy moss like appearance. I have searched the internet trying to find out what it is with no success so far. Have any of you other Monacoers experienced this or know what the stuff is? I know how to prevent it (keep it dry) and kill it (bleach or some commercial stuff) , but I just want to find out what exactly this creepy life form is. Michael Connor 2003 Dip, 38PBDD

Hi there, I will try to insert photos of my 12v/24v/48v system with descriptive captions: The photos below depict and describe my current system and should be self explanatory: I installed all this during the winter of 2015. It has been performing flawlessly since then. A few weeks ago I replaced the existing 4 six volt house batteries with one 12v-100Ah LiFePO4 battery from Battle Born. They were on their last legs and needed to be replaced anyway. I then purchased 6 more 12v-100Ah Battle Borns to replace my 8 golf cart batteries. They will be hooked up series/parallel for 24v-300Ah. We have been full time RVers for almost 20 years now, dry camping 99% of the time. If there are any questions about the system, I will be happy to reply. Michael Connor 2003 Diplomat 38PBDD, electric fridge, electric oven, no generator. Full system: Ten 24v solar panels, 6 on motorhome + 4 more on trailer, approx. 2,500 watts nominal, and one 12v 145watt panel which is now charging the 12v-100Ah battery I recently bought from you guys.
