You've saved Monday! well done!YESSSS!
Found it! I was very close to ordering another from Amazon, that's a tenner saved!
In a random box of car/DIY bits in the garage that I'd been using when I last worked on/in my car

I'll get that touched up tomorrow, and also the gouge that the sliding door took out my lower runner when the wheel bearing went!
Just set up some Ruuvi tags for the van. Inside temp, outside temp and fridge temp. The fridge isn't on at the moment. 
I'm currently testing what the temperature difference for the outside one is between being in the shade Vs being under the solar panel - hoping to bolt it to the roof rack between the rack and the panel.
Looks like that's not an option. It was sitting at 27-28 degrees in the shade, under the panel also in the shade and it's at 32 degrees and still climbing...
Need to think of a better location then! Needs to be out of the direct line of fire of rain/spray and also not in direct sunlight.
Under the van somewhere tucked up away from the exhaust etc might be an option. I've seen people put them inside fuel filler cap too.

Could you put it behind a wing mirror cap?Just set up some Ruuvi tags for the van. Inside temp, outside temp and fridge temp. The fridge isn't on at the moment.

Yeah I thought about that but tbh I've not actually removed one. And I have heated mirrors so I'd assume that might affect the reading in winter.
It fits inside the fuel filler cap though so I'm seeing what that's like, just need some strong adhesive which won't fall off when hot. I do have some sikaflex but I'd like to be able to remove it when it comes to changing the battery!
Looking good
Nice is that offer still on? I need dodomat
I need to do the whole van. Since taking that bulk head out there is so much noise. I do see most people saying the rear floor isn't worthwhile
Yeah it ends today. Need to use the eBay app on your phone for it to work - it won’t work through the web browser.
Your a star thank you mate
