TireLinc Issue??

[Scott'n'Wendy]

Found this interesting. Currently at a campground co-located with a Grand Design dealer. Had a tech come this morning for a thermostat problem. I asked him if he could help me get the Tirelinc set up. His first question was, “Do you have lithium batteries?”. Told him that I did and he told me that the dealership just found out in the last week or so that the Tirelinc system does not work with lithium batteries. Apparently the voltage is too high for the base station. He further told me that Lippert has no fix for the problem. He said a modulator may help. My new TPMS system should be in Wednesday and the Tirelinc will be gone.

He is correct. It doesn't work with lithium batteries.........or agm.......or flooded lead acid........or any other battery....lol
