Question Hello, info please

I have a 1991 sunline T220 from what I can tell. I was wondering if anyone knew HOW or IF you can bypass the battery for electricity, is there a switch or somehting. Thanks ever so much...
Sorry if I put this in the wrong place, am a newbie, today...

The lights pump etc. all run on 12 volts DC it would be a real problem to convert them to 120 volts AC. When you plug n the camper the converter runs and makes the power for the lights etc. so that should not be a problem why do you want to by pass the battery? Some converters will not work with out a battery so that is some thing to consider also.

Smile Thanks

Wanted to bypass because could not get anything to work. Did not know there was a convertor involved.. Duh, me... I think I may have figured out the problem, hoping it's the battery may be no good or cables. Praying it's not the convertor.
Thanks ever so much

Even if you are plugged in a battery is kind of like an emergency generator you will have lights and water even if the house or camp ground doesn't. The only problem is the converter/charger if it is an older style (I believe it is) it would not be a good ideal to leave it on indefinitely they are not well regulated and could damage the battery if left on long term. It's fine for a week or two but it would be a good ideal to unplug the camper when you leave or disconnect the battery - cable. A little battery maintainer from a auto parts store would keep your battery charged while you are away if you wanted to do some thing like that. Hope you found your problem.
