Various panel kids are shown here: https://www.t6forum.com/threads/guide-mobile-solar-panels-how-i-did-it.13225/ Look at around 50w for a dash trickle charge. And 100-400w for a leisure battery mobile charge.

That's specifically the trailer socket module going to sleep some time after the trailer is no longer detected. I did do some experiments with the 12v sockets and USB-C but not long term. I'm also a single battery only. When I have the 12v EHU plugged in I often plug my small Beaudens power...

Keep us updated! I too will be ringing Skyline shortly. VW don’t want to know for me as the aerial has been relocated but did say they’re diagnosis code was aerial connection. I’ve thought about how to test it at home with getting a new aerial then connecting at connector at back of pop top to...

thats looks ok. . . i use 4mm PV cable for the extension cables to get the panels out in the sun. : https://amzn.to/3NWbFhx i use SB50 Andersons for the 12v POWER SIDE, : https://amzn.to/44vziUu i use MC4 solar connectors for the panel side, : https://amzn.to/3CVBrgq i use awg8 silicone...

Lots of options… 1. DC-DC with leisure battery under drivers seat 2. DC-DC with leisure battery in the rear furniture 3. Portable battery generator like an EcoFlow or Jackery mounted in the rear furniture Then you could add solar panels to the roof for any of the above For 1 and 2 you might...

When camping every time you unlock/power up the van the lights come on and the modules power up.. if you open the van multiple times a day. . . . . And if you leave the door open then the van will stay awake longer. thats why the battery will go flat after 2 days or so. +++++++++ at home...

the CTEK is good for about 400W max. But you must make sure you dont go above the 23v VOC max input of the charger or damage will ocure. multiple panels will need to be connected in parallel. size wise: for " crx50 fridge, diesel, heater , lighting and a couple of USB s for phone charging"...

No, all good. just make sure all are set to correct charge profiles, all battery connections are fused, and look at fitting some monitoring: Charging: Battery Chargers - How I Did It - Battery Charging - Main Battery Earth Point - Battery Monitoring -- How I Done It -- [Guide] Battery...

yeh, id say. . . thats 100% STC Max Power yield. the panel shows P-Max 200w - which i got. it was only for a second or two, but managed to get a screen shot. everything was for it, cold panel temp, perfect clear sky, perfect panel angle, lithium low power so ready to take a bulk charge...

So after a month of doing sweet FA on the van, this weekend I got my act together and painted the wall panelling. First of all I did it in Cuprinol light blue... then decided I didn't like it and re-did in an expensive Farrow and Ball white. I have also started messing around with a little...

Have you looked at the DIY mobile options to start with? https://www.t6forum.com/threads/mobile-solar-panels-how-i-did-it.13225/ .

Not very well as it blew off the roof whilst camping at a rally and after that only half of it worked, so I bought 2 of these and they’ve worked with no problems...

Hi, really interesting write up on the LPS, very useful, thanks. I have a question about how I go with mine. I'm mulling whether it's better to expand what's already there or rip it out and start afresh. Would appreciate thoughts. So I have the LPS 1 100Ah. After some niggling issues, I did a...

- fuses are not needed on 12v solar systems IMHO as the short circuit current is so low versus the cable gauge used (next to no chance of burning out cables) - so leave it out. ( if you wanted to fit one, it would go as close as possible to the source of power - so at the panel end of the...

yeh. . . . unfortunately the T6 wont last 4weeks. that's going to end up with a knackered battery. you need to top-up with a mains charger every 3weeks or so, or get some solar fitted. more info: Charging: Battery Chargers - How I Did It - Battery Charging - Main Battery Earth Point -...

look at getting a EHU mains charger added. ***************************************************** POWER: [Guide] Victronenergy.com - Wiring-Unlimited PDF Diagrams, Schematics & Wires -- How I Done It -- EHU & Mobile Earthing - How We Done It - Charging: Battery Chargers - How I Did It -...

i wouldn't recommend those. . . (no offence intended, but I've tested them and wasnt up to scratch)(but you could prove me wrong with any BM2 battery voltage plots showing the battery being charged) - https://amzn.to/3TLefvk for £55 your cash can be well spent else where. why? "Max power...

I did have a quick look before posting and unless I’m missing something the Sterling is a mains charger only. So what’s confusing is you’ve said the cable was from the dc-dc (aka B2B) and you’ve also mentioned solar but the Sterling has nothing to do with either. Do you have a dc-dc charger -...
