I couldn’t mount mine vertically as it was a bit of an emergency fit whilst in Spain. However, I only have 100w panel and even with external temps in high 20’s and 8 amps going through it, it didn’t even get particularly warm. So I’ve left it in the roof void mounted horizontally. I guess it...

It's 115Ah YUASA VBX Active Leisure L35-115 that was already fitted when we bought the van 6 weeks ago.

...they might put it as they could connect to the existing feed in the wardrobe without running any new wire to the front when fitting just a 100W panel. I asked because in another thread @Chris1983 said he was quoted £700+ from Hillside to fit such. That’s pretty extortionate considering the...

Thank you. I have a Dokio 100w but no fuse holder. Was going to put one in close to where it connects to battery.

I sold it and reverted to a leisure battery setup. The EF Delta Mini specs on their website says 8A

I’ve added another solar panel to the roof as 100w of solar sometimes did not cut it.

Thanks for you input. That 100w solar panel has now sold on eBay so looking at others on the Renogy eBay site as they don't seem to do the portable ones on their main site, along with a separate charge controller rather than inbuilt, so I'll look into the MPPT ones. I was thinking I could...

...have ended up with a fried brain, so apologies if the answers already out here. I have the D250SE installed, and have just purchased a Dokio 100w foldable solar panel. I read a bit about COV, and took note that for the D250 SE it's 23v. The Dokio panel spec on Amazon stated the COV as 22.5v...

If you had a basic solar panel that would also extend the use of your battery, a 100w panel should put back in about 30Ah on a sunny day, which means you can go for a smaller battery as it'll be constantly getting charged during the day. I will say though, with a big system like mine (230Ah...

I am wanting to change my 100w solar panel for a 200w solar panel. At present there are no isolation switches installed in the solar system. Where would these need to be installed, and what type of switches would be required?

...and that's if your battery was full to start with. As you tested the heater, it probably wasn't. You'd get about 30Ah per day in full sun from a 100w panel, so it's really not hard to only see a few Ah from solar. Then you're at a 10-15Ah deficit every day. If you're not driving it once a...

Did you use the split mc4 connectors? Got a pic of that connection?

Firstly... That's a ridiculous price for removing and fitting a new panel! o_O As @T6ChrisO says, rigid is far more reliable - it's just more difficult to fit. If your roof is nice and flat you can use the ABS mounting brackets: If there's any curve though they get awkward to fit. If...

Yes I was surprised at how simple it was. The LPS does not show the watts going in but it does show the battery percentage going up as it would on hook up or the van running. I only have a renogy 100w panel and was surprised how well it topped up the LPS even without a massive amount of sunlight.

Renogy 100Ah Lifepo4 Battery + 100W Renogy Solar Suitcase Not mine . . . but might interest some. https://ebay.us/FmpjhZ Renogy 12V 100Ah Heavy Duty Long Life Lithium Leisure Battery LiFePO4. Bought last summer and never used due to covid and Ill health. It’s mint condition as seen...

C1 = 3.4 C2 = 3.3 C3 = 3.2 C4 = 3.0 Put the battery back in the van Managed to get my 2 x 100w solar panels wired to feed my Renogy dc-dc . Ran diesel heater to drawn down on battery. Good to see then the DC-DC starting to top up battery then after 1.5 hours or so,indicating full charge (green...

I'd go with lithium and dc-dc. Then add solar later.

so, thoughts? Order of priority? Solar onto sca rails (100w initially but modular ability to upgrade to 200) maxing out budget Vs Swapping leisure for lifepo and dc to dc Both dependent on finding someone to install (the age old full carpet interior rearing it’s head again (as per prev...

Just dropped them a line to give me a price to change my 100w roof panel to 200w or greater. Soon have my Lithium battery bulging with all that extra power.

Yep - so best to avoid roof bars over the top of your panel (or parking near trees/buildings/seagulls)
