Yesterday and today, finally got my solar panel bonded to the pop top. Renogy 200W bonded with Sikaflex 552 to a layer of clear PPF so it will be easier to remove if (when!) I need to. Left a 3-4mm gap below the panel to give some ventilation. Cables route through a Scanstrut gland outside the...

I put all my ceiling lighting wiring in place before my pop top was fitted. I did the carpet lining myself so wiring wasn't an issue but I think most of my front to rear cabling I ran from the drivers seat base into the space beneath the offside slider footwell then up to my fuse box in the rear...

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.

Ideal, thanks for the reassurance! My plan it to feed it into the AC port on the inverter. I'd like to use the inverter to send power to a 2 gang socket (also with a couple of USBs) on it that I would install on the side of my unit. My thoughts were to wire this with a UK plug into the...

I took the dash out on mine to route all the cables properly and to get to the BCM

Only another small update but i got the last of the sound deadening down last night and ran the main power cable for the spilt charge as well as a signal wire for the ctek back to the main fuse board. pretty much sticking to stock routing all the way which kept things nice and neat. I’m...

I think it comes down to physical space as well, particularly if you are considering an inverter. A 1KW inverter will be fine in either route, but you are going to need 100A cables between it and the battery that you will want to keep short. There is going to be more space with the 105Ah...

Yeah, tbh all that is planned as well as solar - I need to change to a DC-DC in order to go LiFePO4 but just doing the DC-DC won't actually give me that much benefit, I need to do both at the same time. I may get solar sorted first, I've got my eye on a Victron 305w rigid panel for £166...

Edited I'm here to vent. I have a T6 and a wolfbox G840s that I have utterly failed to install myself today... the hardwire kit I bought online (cheap) was faulty. So I went to Halfords and bought their hardwire kit. Oh what a meal I made of routing the wires! - BUY CHEAP BUY TWICE only myself...

kinda sort of started the install, in a grass camp field, with minimal tools. .. 1st job was battery and rear plate out. which gets us to this bung, we have to run the cables through this, then into the plenum chamber. ( i cut out a U shaped section large enough to allow the new cables to...

Clachtoll Beach Site Probably the favourite of the trip, staff really friendly and gave us a loan of a pair of ramp levelers which was appreciated. Short walk to another stunning beach area, the site rent out paddle boards, wet suits etc for adults and kids. The facilities were really nice...

Wind deflectors - going on tomorrow morning Wolfbox Dashcam - I am procrastinating with as I am scared to wire in to the reverse light cable, if I can even figure out how to route to it. THQ replacements bulbs - yet to be delivered

Finished up my Eberspacher install the other day. Had a minor issue on initial start up which was due to having low fuel and the drivers side jacked up. Tried 4 times trying to get the system to prime before I realised it’s probably not picking fuel up from the tank. Put it back down on the...

I suspect what's happened is that the base van had an aux battery specced to protect the starter from the heater running it down - a sensible choice. Then on conversion the 75aH is a bit small but the heater useful so you add a whole leisure setup - again a sensible choice. But you probably...

How far do you think I should go with a Lithium replacement? My 2018 t32 t6 is a pop-top conversion which has a factory fit diesel heater and 75Ah leisure battery under front seat and an independently wired 105Ah leisure battery system (VSR, EHU mains charger and EHU) in the rear supporting...

All depends where you can mount the busbars, one you've worked that out you can basically put the battery in whichever way you want to. Essentially, work out where the existing cable ends that are on the battery at the moment will reach, mount the busbars in a good location based on this, and...

Wiring all complete on the interior light strips, rear floodlight, and PV cables all completely hidden, routed through the van internal trim and headlining. I'm really pleased with how the lighting has turned out, and I'll probably add a little more 'uplighting' via LED strips in the rear of...

More wiring. Passenger seat, seat base and battery out today to route the wiring into the seat base, all done now. Added a 12v fuse box for the interior LED strips, rear floodlight, power feed to a Renogy One Core (future purchase) and the USB/12v in the seat back board. Oh and the PV cables...

Evening all - Any tips/advice on routing cables from under the seat to the back of the van? I have a twin slider, looked at going up through the seat belt pillar, how do you come back down to the control panel which will be situated in the back? Looks like I may have to drill a hole?? Also I'm...

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...
