    I’ve messed up - Inverter Install

    As part of my current upgrade from AGM to Lithium, I’m installing a 2000w Renogy inverter to power my 1800w induction hob. However, I didn’t consider the limited space I have in my van and the pretty much the only place I can install it is in the back in the garage. My battery being a 230Ah...

    Portable Solar Panel without drilling holes in bodywork

    Is there a legitimate way to add a portable solar panel to trickle charge a battery without having to drill holes in the van? I usually use hookup but have a couple festivals coming up. Any recommendations would be appreciated.

    What Have You Done To Your Van Today?

    Partially disassembled it... Oh and while I was there, started on the job of routing wiring through the roof for extra lights, leisure battery monitor, and solar cables. 6mm solar cables routed through the tailgate wiring boot, once I could find the hole into the main headlining area...

    Ecoflow Alternator Charger 800W

    Look forward to hearing how you get on. I reckon this could be a game changer. I see it as a far better solution than solar panels, unless I'm missing something.

    Leisure power upgrade

    Looking better. Personally I wired the AMT differently and just went direct to the Orion as per the instructions. Less cable and connections. You could certainly do that with the neg to save routing that to the chassis. You don’t need the fused cable for the ip65 now as the one you have fitted...

    Badjamins van conversion

    Okay so budget has now gone on parking charge and MOT and previous works mentioned above. So no new purchases of any substance for the time being. I now have in my spare room- sound deadening, thermo fleece, insulation, carpet and all the adhesives remaining windows and window blanks for rear...

    Anyone out there with solar and reimo pop top able to describe or pics of how the wire is routed to allow slack for top going up but not trap the cables putting the lid down ? Thanks

    Best route for rear camera cable in fully converted van ?

    Ok thanks. I’m looking at the Autovox v5 rear view mirror dash cam setup as it would solve several issues. But routing to the rear NS barn door feels impossible! I think I can get into the void above the sliding door but not sure if that void extends down to the rear lighting cluster or not - I...

    Looking for help on which route i can take with charging cables for vehicle battery from under passenger seat(UK driver seat) in our Cali Beach T6.1. Anyone who might have done this? I dont want any drilled holes etc if possible. :)

    D-pillar cable routes. Anyone currently have a bare internal van?

    From your 1st paragraph below - I couldn’t quite understand how you used the tailgate rubber bung hole to get access to the wire you were feeding. “The new camera loom run through the existing door loop into the D-Pillar void and up to the top corner above the roof panel . . . i used the larger...

    CTEK D250 SE and solar panel.

    You have enough kit to trial things this season though by the sounds of it, so try that and see if it works for you. You might find out you like the idea but you'd rather have a roof top panel so it charges all the time. One of the downsides of the portable panels is they are really only...

    Cable length from battery to rear offside wheel area.

    I believe 3m of cable to the passenger seat, 3.5m to the drivers is sufficient for following the normal route in the channels and up behind the glove box and through to battery area and have enough for tails - these seem to be the sizes quoted in kits. For instance...

    Low charge current from MIB STD2 Discover Media

    I've recently changed phones and my previous phone charged albeit slowly when using Android Auto and GPS. New phone actually loses power when plugged in. I think the head unit can only supply around 500ma which seems is not enough to run AA, GPS and charge. Has anyone else seen this and come up...

    New to this forum and the world of vw transporters.

    I did this yesterday, the fuse box inside the cab to the left of the gearstick / selector has a middle row of fuses that are all suitable. I think I used an empty one about three down from the top. In terms of routing if you take the rubber mat up you'll see other cables that are run in floor...

    External 240v hook-up options?

    This is ringing all sorts of alarm bells in my head. I’m not familiar with the Renogy or its feed through features, but what kind of protection does it offer on the output side WRG overload/earth fault? It may be perfectly ok, but it feels wrong to me.

    How did you route the cable and did you earth it to the chassis? Cheers

    Physical layout of electrical components

    @ginkster thanks for your input. I've amended the diagram and removed the fuse into the B2B. I've also shown a fuse on the outlet from the leisure battery. It's something I'd have have hopefully noticed when I came to doing the wiring. As far as fusing all outputs on the positive busbar, all...

    Fusebox Extension Kit Set For Tow Bar Electrics 000055212A instructions

    I did my install slightly different to the book, as we plan to fit a leisure battery at some point. I brought a fused thick battery cable through behind the battery to under the drivers seat and fitted a threaded connection post. This is where we plan to fit the leisure battery. I then shortened...
