Inverter numbers?

Thank you guys, sounds like she's off to the shop already

Is 2-4 hours pretty normal before needing to idle the truck? I guess I just assumed you could leave stuff plugged in 24/7 and driving during the day charged it up enough

Inverter numbers?

Howdy guys, your local rookie here. I just finished training and am working on getting a truck assignment, but having a bit of a hickup in using the outlets/heat. When the truck is running, the little inverter label in the sleeper reads 14.0, but almost instantly when I turn it off, the reading goes down to 11.1-11.4 and an alarm starts going off that reads "EOS", so I can't use my fridge or microwave, or hell even plug in my phone without the alarm going so I just turn it off. The heater in the sleeper even turned off last night about 2 am in Indianapolis (rather chilly wake up call), reading low voltage. My trainer said the batteries just needed to be charged, nothing to worry about, so I've idled it approx 45 minutes, and the same issue. I have no idea what I'm doing, and I'm not sure if it's a me problem, or if this already needs to be in the shop. If you can help me out, or even just let me know the numbers that yours shows, that would be great thanks everybody.

It is Cooper bussmann model 12-110-1800 if that is of any help
