I have just I have just checked it and it now has a green flashing light but stays the same when van is started and off but leisure battery is just showing 12.4 now

Both camping and domestic fridge freezers come in two types. The better ones are twin compressor and thermostat and are effectively 2 independent devices in one housing. The simpler ones have a single compressor and work by sending the coolant first through the "freezer" and then the fridge...

Yes, I noticed that from the info @roadtripper referenced, but I'm not aware of anything that would prevent charging below 0C. Throughout this latest cold spell (with local, overnight lows of -6C), the van has been sat on the driveway - no EHU and obviously no DC/DC input. The fridge is off...

This is my fridge with the large and 2 small containers from Dunelm: Keep Fresh Fridge Storage Container Large | Dunelm

Just a few observations. As the interior of van gets warmer the fridge gets colder as the compressor runs more often. Yesterday was 35+ in the van all day but the fridge kept internal temperature to between 1 - 3 degrees Celsius. Due to the sunny weather and I had plenty of solar panels. One...

Full details here in my van build thread https://www.t6forum.com/threads/tallpauls-caravelle-mtb-wagon.43548/post-628617 Basically, it's a standalone unit secured down via the caravelle seat rails, has a fridge, sink, and water in it, with a pull out table and storage for a 2 burner hob.

The fridge is a Dometic top loading compressor fridge,Rated input power (DC) 45 W The battery is bog standard a 110ah Numax lead acid. it does worry me that someone could pinch the panel if we were away from the van which we would be for most of the day whilst its out in the sun. The Renogy...

Hi, Do you have any photos of this in your van? I’m really interested in getting Vangear units but wasn’t sure how well it fitted in the van (for example is there any gaps behind the unit/on the sides) Many thanks

Looking to purchase a portable solar generator like a Jackery. I’m only looking to charge phones and power my small 12v fridge, I’m looking at the Jackery 240. Anyone got any other makes they have purchased that are maybe a little cheaper?

Agree it’s a nice box and 25amps too. My strong advice is 50Ah is too small. Especially if you have a fridge etc. it would need constant charging. I have 480Ah by using 4x leisure battery’s overkill for most people but it means I can charge drone batteries (work) remotely with the inverter.

It has the usual swivel captains chairs in the cab and half dinette with a pull-down bed over. A small but useable bathroom with a shower hose that you can also use outside under the tailgate. Dometic 2 burner hob plus a fridge with a larger than normal kitchen worktop. Hot and cold water plus...

1) Quite possibly - the fact that the control panel is beeping means the voltage isn't 0 and the fridge will almost certainly have shut off after a certain low voltage has been reached. It's not as if there has been a dead short across the terminals. Assuming you can, use the EHU to charge it...

I've got a feeling you're going to be inundated! I have a tall fridge you can have, same floor space as a small fridge.

I've got a camper but we mainly use as a day van. Having 2 kids I've tried to get it to a place where when going out for the day we don't need to do a big pack beforehand. In the van we have all the standard cooking stuff, bbq, plates, cups etc. Toaster, kettle, air fryer. Sunshade awning...

Paradoxically, given I'm often advising on leisure electrics, I've not gone any further down that route on my own van. As it's not a full camper the only thing we really would use a second battery for is lights when we're parked up for fish and chips or to power the small portable fridge. To...

Hello all, I am working up courage to swap split charge relay with a Victron DC to DC and Ablemail 12-2. I only currently have a 75 sized leisure battery. So was thinking of changing that too for a bigger capacity. This is all under driver seat (impacted by diesel heater dusting). I have...

This, wot 'e said. Just one bit of shade on a panel over a few cells can reduce the outout by 40% easily, so that roof rack with shade over multiple bits of the whole panel, at a guess I'd say you'll maybe get 25-50w (maybe less) from the 400w on a perfect day when you would be betting 350+w...

I'm just about to embark on a small upgrade to my van and it'll be my first foray into electrics so looking for some advice. It's a van we bought already converted so making any significant changes i=would be difficult, so I want to do as much under the drivers seat as possible. Current set up...

...rack for kayaks/sailing dinghy although most of the time it's empty, so I'm looking for a compromise. My power usage isn't massive, a small fridge and charging the phone/laptop when camping. I already have a Renogy 50ah lifepo4 battery and 50 amp DC-DC MPPT charger. I was thinking if I got...

Theoretically, yes. If the battery was at 100% then you had a draw of less than 1a, the battery will be at less than 100% but the BMS won't have detected any draw. So then if you drive and charge the battery back up to a true 100%, it'll show 100%. I've found mine would sit at 97% when the...
