    Essential must have's

    We couldn't live in the van without an inverter! Induction hob, wifey hair straighteners, coffee machine, toaster, laptop charging, anything really pluggable innable! Even used a hammer drill at busfest to plant a superstake for the flagpole in rock hard ground. As long as you have a decent...

    Dellmassive`s Camper Van Adventure

    Very true, I'm looking at about a 25% duty cycle with the thermostat. Then add in the 230ah lithium battery that will be used to trickle charge the delta2 upto 8A or 100w.... Then with two.... 230+230ah = 460ah ( that's 5520wh). Assuming we fit both... Run the numbers on that and see...

    Yeah, but the operative word here is “essential” :whistle:

    DIY Beds

    I have the Van King bed and sliding tray fitted in my van it’s brilliant and very versatile, I carry our Alpicool fridge, porta potty, and 3 - 35 litre storage boxes on the tray. Behind the tray and my Kombi 3 seats I’ve built a box which holds 2 - 100ah lithium batteries, Victron charger, 1500...

    [Guide] 12v/240v Power Inverters -- How I Done It --

    I run a Renogy 1000w inverter (I want the 2000 watt) and have managed so far to blow an 80A and 100A glass tube type fuse where the load (supposedly sub 1kw travel kettle) was drawing 88A at 13.2 volts and a 700 watt microwave oven that pulled 97A at 13.2 volts. Not saying these currents are...

    Power Station substitution

    This question puts me at risk of seeming stupid or at least of being naive with an overactive imagination. At some time, hopefully, not this year, when I need to change my AGM leisure battery, I’ll get a lithium one. Its lightness and portability is worth the extra expense. 200w of solar power...

    Off Grid

    We have a low wattage (1400W) kettle in the van & only use it when we have EHU. Keeping it sub 6A gets us under the 6A limit of many campsite EHUs. We also have a 1600W inverter & Lithium LB, but hardly use the inverter. We use the gas kettle when not on EHU.

    @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...

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...

    Roamer LiFePO4 Gen4 230Ah Seatbase battery -- "How I Done It" --

    15a is fine, it'll just take longer to charge - but if you're on EHU then you'll be connected 24hrs a day. It's like solar - it might only be 20a max but type getting that all day long. Hence, 700Wh from solar (60Ah roughly) is ready to get from a solar panel. 15a for 15hrs is enough for a full...

    Lithium LifePo4 12v Batteries - Time For An Upgrade?

    I I think the massive current capabilities of lithium are a free bonus of the chemistry tbh. I think “downgrading” the current capabilities would actually add to the cost. As long as the internals of the BMS are capable of handling the current, then adding some kind of current limiting...

    What Have You Done To Your Van Today?

    Took out the old lead acid leisure battery, CBE mains charger, cabling various and threaded through a new 16mm2 cable from starter battery to the rear wardrobe. Plan tomorrow is to fit a new Fogstar lithium battery, Victron DC-DC, Ablemail AMT 12-2 and busbars, fuses, isolator etc. I’m going to...

    Van electrics upgrade - Shopping list sense check?

    Realistically have a good think how many times you are actually going to change over from EHU to Inverter before doing something complicated. And how often you are going to use it. It's perfectly viable to use it via the inverter all the time and rely on a good EHU charger to replace the...

    Renogy Inverter

    Thanks, I will do a couple of tests this evening and post on here with screen shots, I think the kettle was an issue so I will try again, do you think the 2kw inverter is TOO big for the bettery setup ? TBH I went 2Kw over 1Kw to future proof the setup, at some point I will swap put for Lithium...

    Funny you should say that, turns out I just did as one of the other members of the syndicate wanted to reduce from 2 shares to 1 (y) We have replaced the main bank with slightly larger batteries and thankfully this time no questions, I think folks saw the benefits. We also changed our charge...

    Off-Grid set up, not that great!

    Just to check on the fridge - it is a compressor fridge? Assuming so, your 12v loads are a pretty typical off-grid set-up so shouldn’t be an issue assuming an adequate recharging strategy (usually a DC-DC and preferably solar too). The inverter running 240v loads is another matter, it’s...

    240v hook up (suggest me products)

    My kit purchased consists of Renogy 50 dc to dc with Bluetooth Renogy 1000w inverter Renogy 100h lithium battery 12 x fuse box I've part installed (first fix) my 12v bits using multi core 2mm flat cable.. I actually need to get someone to come out and install my kit.
