So I am installing a drip led light above the sliding door today. Basically the type of drip channel that stops you getting a shower every time you open the sliding door in wet weather. It also has a smart LED strip built into it. To wire it, I want to take a feed from the existing van...

Pulling cables and conduit in the van at the moment. Something about putting 8.5mm positive and negative thinwall cable into a 20mm flexible conduit run of about 7 metres makes me feel uneasy. Obviously it will be appropriately fused, but still. Anybody know what the guidance/General feeling...

So the sliding door track top and bottom on my pvc is sounding and looking pretty dry of lubrication. I can see were some kind of grease/lube has been used in the past and it seems like it's time to top it up. I have new rollers all around. I'd like to look after them. So I google "best...

Possibly not the most exciting of threads, but here goes. Installed some nice shiny new windows in the van. They are the opening type whereby a section of the glass slides back into a channel top and bottom with a felty type strip in it presumably to stop rattles/drafts etc. The felty type...

Finished wiring superseal connectors onto the batteries tonight. Added an extra battery to the existing two. Trouble was it had a different bms data connector on the new one so I had to bite the bullet and swap them all over. I really struggled to source the existing connectors (some sort of...

Due to being pretty sure my alternator is on it's last legs, I had a good chat with Alterstart today. They are a local small business to me in Devon who specialise in custom alternators. I told them of my need of an alternator replacement for my Iveco Daily that would show a good output, even...

So I'm looking to purchase a clesse regulator for our Gaslow system in our self build. There seems to be an option of regulator for either 8 or 10mm copper pipework. Which should I go for... Are more fittings available for one or the other? Costs? Is different pipework diameters easier to...

Hi all, So I am just about to begin fitting a new plywood floor into our van, and thinking ahead to how I am going to cut nice crisp lines in both the sheet material for the floor, but also the sheet material for the rest of the furniture in the conversion. I have decided that I need to...
