My VFD provides medic-ce.com to all EMS personnel. It's about $50 a year self pay. Good courses, audio available.

I've been searching for this course in the Houston area. No Joy so far. Everything seems to be basic to paramedic. Any info on Texas would be appreciated.

I am looking to attend a night paramedic class. I am a volunteer so I work full time during the day (and work for free some nights and weekends..salaried). I have heard the current Paramedic class has you complete a module, then do clinicals. If this is the case I can most likely do the...

Thanks for the suggestions. It's off to the shop with it. Hopefully in March! My foster daughter just cost me two grand in repairs on her car after crashing our Camry :o I had the Ambulance sitting for 3 days, just went to check it and the batteries are so low the dash lights barely light...

Only room for two batteries in the drawer. Two questions remain: - Can a third battery be placed under the hood in the normal battery position in parallel? - With the shore line plugged in and the inverter switched on, it began a high pitched tone. What does it mean? I switched...

Yes I can turn off the disconnect. If this is done does that bypass the batteries and use the shore line for box power? Only a few days a year an engine heater would be necessary and this morning was one of them. This unit is originally from S Carolina so I'm uncertain if its equipped.

Thanks for the quick response. I had suspected it was for the inverter, I don't have any current need for continuous power in the box, ambulance is not in service. I had mistakenly thought that the "shore line" could provide power to all the box's needs. I was wrong! The batteries are...

A newb question here, does the plug in charger for a Type III ambulance actually charge the batteries? I have a PSD with two batteries in series that experience drainage. This drainage occurs when plugged in or not. Not engine heater, this is TX! Any assistance is appreciated. I am a...
