    What Have You Bought Today?

    I can get a full list of the build of course. Of top of my head its currently 8 individual cells giving me 544ah as it standa, with a 3000w inverter, so camper has full 240v at all times, no hook up required. I definitely know there is no victron in the system at all. has dc dc to charging...

    @ginkster so something like this should work? https://uk.renogy.com/dcc30s-12v-30a-dual-input-dc-dc-on-board-battery-charger-with-mppt/#op=%7B%22id%22%3A367%2C%22options%22%3A%5B%7B%22optionId%22%3A%22831%22%2C%22value%22%3A%221010%22%7D%5D%7D with...

    Basic set up? Stihl battery charger?

    Fyi, a 100ah lifpo4 lithium battery holds about 1200wh. Those 3x batterys together would be about 1000wh. So, I would recommend a 100ah lifpo4 battery. And a 30A - 50A DC-DC charger. And a 1000w inverter. .... I'd look at the Renogy kit. They do all the above. 100ah smart lithium. 50A...

    Adding solar to existing set up?

    What I find remarkable is that with lithium it's now viable in a small van to do this if you're happy with the budget and space. I've had full independent mains on the narrowboat for 20 years but that relies on a massive shelf of bubbling lead acid vats in the engine space and an industrial...

    LifePO4 upgrade plus inverter

    Have to agree with the need for a lithium profile charger as I've only used mine once prior to actually using the setup when actually camping, since then the battery hasn't dropped below 86% full. My ambition is to get rid of the gas bottle especially with the Renogy 2kw inverter being £230 and...

    Adding solar to existing set up?

    You can work out how much energy you need for any AC mains device, just look at the power rating in Watts and calculate as follows. For a fag-packet calculation you can ignore losses in the inverter, assume the nominal mains value is 230V and the batteries supply 12V. Suppose you have a...

    Simple electrics set up (Renogy based)

    Hello everyone, i'm a total beginner in the electrics topic. Was reading this forum for a week, find it very informative but i still have some (many!) questions. Would really appreciate if someone could give me a hand. (And please excuse my English, i'm not a native speaker) So, we are going to...

    Leisure Battery vs Power Bank

    So my factory fit LB is now 7 years old and had another hard winter with van in storage. Was struggling last year so suspect it's on its last legs now. Been looking at replacing with a lithium but under seat placement restricts size. Also would need to upgrade B2B (plus add inverter). All...

    Should I ditch the Sargent? Please help

    Thanks that looks a decent set up. What I think I will up doing is sorting my 12v system so it runs for longer and then buy a stand alone inverter that I will just charge before I leave if I’m going to use 240 plug ins. Think I would rather have 1 or 2 lithiums and a decent solar system for...

    Adding solar to existing set up?

    Out of curiosity I did a back of the envelope calculation. Assuming a spend of about £1000 on a 200ah system with solar + inverter and 20p per unit of mains electricity: £1000 will buy 5000 kWh of mains 200ah at 12v is roughly 2.5 kWh So your break even is broadly 2000 complete cycles I...

    Double Battery whilst camping

    I was going to suggest a power pack and charger as another option, if you already have the power pack and charger then that's a good thing to try. As the lithium battery in a power pack is a very different thing to your (I assume) AGM van battery you are going to need some conversion. Although...

    LifePO4 upgrade plus inverter

    The lower power inverters can be cheaper and a lot easier to deal with the wiring and heat. The spec of your current charger is 48 x 5 = 240w, apply an 80% fudge factor for losses in the inverter and charger and we get 300w. So you could look at a 300w inverter, maybe a 500w with some...

    victron pheonix 1200 or Renology 1000w?

    Thanks, definitely looks like I need to upgrade my system then. Shame, but just what it is another learning curve. Thanks for helping me get this right, super appreciated!

    Please help me - how to use camper plug sockets?

    Have you found the leisure battery yet? What is the Ah figure on it? Minimum Standard for a T6.1 would be a DC-DC Charger between Starter Battery and Leisure Battery for a start. Leisure Battery nowadays AGM as minimum, Lithium as Gold, Size (Ah) depending on how much you expect to need it for...

    Twin passenger V Single passenger captain seat.

    Thanks very much. Seems a similar setup to mine; I am debating just going for a off grid power unit that can be carried rather than lithium just so I don't have to change lights etc. With regards to your captain seats; are they OEM? they look like the ones from Camper Beds & Seats Are they...

    victron pheonix 1200 or Renology 1000w?

    if I'm right in my thinking the microwave should only use 5.17a based on the calculations that it will actually use 70% more power than stated. interesting read here: Here So I am thinking I should be able to get away with the pheonix 1200 or 1200w inverter. I think if I use the microwave a lot...

    Off-grid Power Options

    Yep, that’s the sort of kit. I’m not very familiar with the Renogy stuff so someone who is may be able to recommend the best combo. I’ve got that solar panel but not fitted it yet so can’t comment on how good it is. Things to think about: Are your cables and fuses suitable? Does the battery...
