    I'd say that's debatable tbh. There are definite advantages to both spray foam and Kingspan type stuff IMO. They are made by a company called Solway: https://solwaycamperconversions.co.uk/shop They do make the job easy.

    it's the Moreland stuff. It's not bad tbh, easy to cut but not great to drill (I'm likely being picky :) ). Does make life easy though. Feel like I'm cheating 😀

    Fitting a MaxxFan Video

    I videoed fitting our MaxxFan a year ago, but with everything else going on didn't upload it. My new LED MaxxShade arrived a few days ago and I decided to finish the video, also showing how it works and how loud it is and adding what I think of it after having it running almost constantly for a...

    Thanks. Looking like trying to fit a remanufactured engine in our van now. Be a lot easier is someone who had more of a clue could help me though (useless as mechanics). Hoping to find someone that knows more than me (like everyone lol) who wants a hand with their van. Hoping.... Anyway - next...

    Thanks. The shower tray is 670 x 670, then there will be a shallow unit (about 100-120ish deep) between it and the wall (at waist height). This will have the sink on top, so it gives loads of roof at shoulder height. Does make a nice size bathroom. It's the same in our own van.

    I think it's 3mm board from Morlands. Not 100% as was bought before I started. Do know the rest of the interior is Poplar 15mm lightweight ply.

    Not my own van, this is one I'm doing for someone else. They ran out of time after deciding to go back to work for the summer, so couldn't finish it. I had the time, so why not :cool: Anyway, here's video 1:

    Balancing Power Consumption and Charging. Getting there....

    Well it "says" 75K :LOL: I think I bought a bit of a ringer tbh. It was 3 years old to the day and had 35K on the clock (we have had van for 6 years). During the last 6 years it has had 2x new alternator and 2x new starter motor and 3x new battery. This was all for the same problem. I was new...

    Balancing Power Consumption and Charging. Getting there....

    It's a the Ford unit in the Peugeot, the 2.2 HDI 220 When the turbo went it sucked out the oil from the engine. When the AA came originally, they said it was a miracle the engine hadn't blown and that it could be damaged. Then, when getting quotes to have a new turbo, 3 separate garages all...
