Joke lads,Phil

Couple of bottle Jack's bolted upside down on the floor 🤔🤗.Phil

Doesn't sound that way from this angle. Anyway those that do go off grid like me for weeks at a time the current situation with electric appliances just would not stand up, plus my wife just loves to use the oven for baking and roast dinners maybe others dont have such luxury when away like...

Obviously your view is not held by the majority of commercial builders🤔 ahhh maybe they are just using up old stock, that's probably it, NOT. Get real and follow the experts in this subject and understand when that technology is completely viable the industry will kick into gear and use it...

It's because the electric way is way too costly in weight as well as cash for a standard 3.5ton motorhome and the majority are now concentrating on that weight as grandfather 7.5ton is dying out with the likes of my generation. If it was a better idea believe me the business people in this trade...

Ok Dave, I can see that the blinkers are on. Horses for courses, but the electrical race is far from won, 😄. Phil P.s. You do a lot of heat shrinking in your van, interesting.

Dave I know you are a electric nutter but you know exactly what I mean and that I was using a metaphor in explaining weight, what ever you try to say about electrical power the equivalent power to weight ratio of gas to electric power is undeniable. As for using power tools, unless your...

Dave you forget the present weight penalties of Using electric, to have the same untethered means to power a fridge and cooker the amount of battery power for the equivalent time with gas is greatly out weighed by the weight of equivalent stored battery power, yes it's a good idea and I'm sure...

If it was my choice I would go for it, but as previously mentioned do not use them in moderate or high winds🙃. Phil

The one in the old van was a Dometic and also in the new van, the venting for Electrolux and Thetford is garbage and in my view also dangerous in the view of carbon monoxide poisoning as they vent into the fridge cavity space and rely totally on movement of warm air rising to vent gases out...

I can only report what is my personal finding of twice being in 40+, and my wife could still enjoy her Magnum ice creams or what ever the Italian supermarket equivalents are 😁 not that they stayed long in the freezer compartment 🤪. Of course if your talking 50/50 fridge freezers then yes you...

This is where I have fitted mine on a Ducato, I've seen commercial companies fit them this hieght as well. I think I could quite safely get away fitting them about six inches higher, dont forget the legs are adjustable so one side could be appreciably higher than the other they dont have to...

For full extension and partial extension to a point yes, best way is to get someone to hold the opposite leg from the gas inlet with awning fully extended then wind the canopy in decreasing the gas inlet leg in lenght holding it up to the side of the van till the angle gets to difficult for the...

Not suggesting it doesn't have some affect, but does it have a major contributory factor, I personally doubt it, as to longevity of the fridge my previous van I had for ten years which I bought new in 2005 ( The one that I was in Venice in) and sold in 2015 the fridge was still working as it...

Yes I'm aware of the principle, I suppose I was being cynical when I said I dont understand it, I should have said I have never found it necessary. If the fridge compartment is constructed correctly and the fridge is in good condition. Anything over 45deg is so exceptional as to be unlikely...

Squirrel, I've mentioned this before can't remember if on this site or others, I really don't understand all this fan stuff, I've been out in Venice and central France where the temperature was in excess of 40deg in two different Van's with two different makes of fridge not in the same years...

Plonkers all 😄Phil Looks like they have been over a massive cliff edge slammed down and broken the axles

Really I dont feel that if you use sealant adhesive and self tappers its necessary to go over the top with fixings, as I mentioned if someone has an awning out in anything other than a light breeze without hold downs then they are asking for it. I remember about 10 years ago we were in...

Honestly you can get some really good plastic Nave plates now with all the fiat centre badge and all and until you are actually stood next to them it's very difficult to tell that they aren't alloy wheels. These are mine Phil P.s. They are not the knock on kind either the wheel nuts actually...

By the way Dave if they are genuinely Thule brackets dont give them away cheap they are £25 for the pair.🤪Phil
