Had a total loss of power crossing a roundabout, engine seemed to have stalled with suddenly jolt, tried to restart but low cranking speed and then totally flat battery. Aux drive belt seems to have stripped outer edge, this was only replace a week ago. Also found this on the driveway on my...
...newbie and looking for some help, we have just brought a T6 to convert and are located in Victoria, Australia. I am struggling to find any flatpack furniture kits that are a like the ones available in the UK. Does anyone know of any available in Australia or anyone that will send from the...
Have a look at Cymru Camper Furniture on Instagram. They basically do copies of van furniture but offer bespoke options. They are quite a trek from you but I think they might be venturing into flatpack delivery..
I had our diesel heater running off the starter battery for a year or so, until I could afford the leisure Electrics, never ran the starter battery flat, but I did have a jump starter battery pack in the van just in case
If you have led headlights, they are flat patten so normally ok abroad. We went to France and were fine (Edition with LEd headlights), but I carried a pack of deflectors just in case.
You might have a option in you dash cluster to change them to aboard also.

Might be worth a call, they are approved conceters for Evo Design EVO Design – VW CAMPERVAN AND MOTORHOME FLATPACK FURNITURE DIY & TRADE
Alternatively EVO Design – VW CAMPERVAN AND MOTORHOME FLATPACK FURNITURE DIY & TRADE do sell just the rear units ie full height cupboard and from memory they also do the ‘spice rack’ as well. You need to look at the kitchen units on their website and the they are on the last few pages
Before we went U shape we were looking at these.

Depending on what you are running I think 2000w for 1 or 2 nights is overkill. A 1000w would probably be enough.
EcoFlow seem to be really good units and you can buy an 800w alternator charger for them which will charge your power pack from flat to full in an hour and 20mins of driving.

Washed it, it was minging! It’s looking better now. And I simultaneously drained the starter battery because I had the phone plugged in to the van for Apple Play to connect whilst I was waiting for a phone call, so the ignition was on too. I’ve borrowed a battery charger because I loaned mine...
Have just noticed that the DeWalt pump also has a 12v cable adapter so could be used without the battery pack. If I can buy it at Forum discount price, it might be an option.
Hi everyone, thanks for letting me join, looks a great community.
My wife and I picked up a 2023 Hillside Leisure Birchover Exec from a dealer in January. 500miles on clock, just been dealer showroom van. Very nice van, 150ps dsg highline T28, good spec camper.
Sorry for long first post...
Anyone else obsessed by space saving stuff for the van? I am! My mission is to be able to have everything permanently in the van for a weekend away. My favourite so far is this bbq.
Dual fuel, can also be used as a fire pit and fits in a drawer with very little space taken up. Other faves:

Depends what size of pack you are charging.
I'd advise not running them totally flat, every charge cycle puts some wear on the cells so it's more like driving an engine than filling a fuel tank. Try not to drop below 20% in general use, occasionally doesn't matter and usually helps the battery...

Looking for a slimline low level kitchen for my T6.1 swb. I have a fabworx sliding rail bed and have approx. 300mm from the bottom which is narrower than the flatpacks I’ve seen available. Just wondered if there’s any cabinet makers local to Chesterfield?
