    Override PMS in order to use LB sockets whilst engine running

    Hi, I noticed that my usb ports normally powered by the leisure battery don’t work when the engine is running. I think this is pretty common as a few other friends who have converted vans have said the same. Is there an easy way to override this? I know the leisure battery can provide power...

    has anyone come across a switch panel that looks half decent? I've found a few but they don't allow the feeds to be individually fused.

    Has Anyone Used A Non-sargent Control Panel??

    Not much to add really. I quite like a control panel with a built in USB and plug sockets (it's smaller looking and less intrusive) but have only ever known people to use Sargent control panels with their conversions. Has anyone used a different one and had no issues?? I know what a Sargent...

    Sargent System pricing?

    A question for the experienced from a conversion newbie, "how much should it be costing me to have a Sargent 155 system supplied & fitted?" rough estimate will do, also because its a T6 I'm told I also need a Ablemail B2B charger?? Thanks in advance gents......

    PMS 3h - Power Management System

    Hi Everyone, i have the above in my T6 with a split charger relay but to be honest i'm not 100% sure how it works. I understand that if the "battery selector" rocker switch is set to "car" then the 12v power for the lights etc.. will come from the car battery. When the same switch is in the...
