    Yes the heat exchangers will be in the engine coolant circuit that will also have the 12kw eberspacher.

    2017 Fiat Ducato Alternator Output

    It’s funny with what you found. I had the opposite problem with Murky, small bulbs getting a silver sheen. What’s good for the battery may not be good for other systems. I would expect a manufacturer to use a charge voltage that is adequate for the battery and systems. Is there not some rule in...

    Violating a Princess!

    As of late the progress has been getting slower, to the point where the few that were watching this saga can no longer stay awake! Today some goodies arrived via courier, two 24volt water heated fans. I won't go into details as to how I'll be using them, that can wait until I get to that stage...

    Opinions, please!

    I thought mine looked unloved and poorly worked on, maybe I should forget the idea of buying a new KAB seat.

    Solar project anyone?

    I for one would consider it bad practice Trev. Once you combine -ve you'll probably need to increase the wire gauge for the extra current the combined wire is carrying. Then split the wire to each controller. If your putting another hole in the roof, you might as well make two as you are...

    Solar project anyone?

    It’s never wise to ground or common solar panels in separate arrays. Without knowing the solar controller circuitry you could have undesirable affects.

    Solar project anyone?

    Until I started using the Victron controllers I never had much choice. On those wet overcast days an Amp is more welcome than no Amps. Having a higher panel voltage sure does help then. Though is series you'll never get more current than your worst panel. And if one goes open circuit you...

    Solar project anyone?

    That was my conclusion, either two controllers or wire them all parallel. Parallel is a lot of rewiring and piggy back connectors. At the times series would be an advantage, chances it wouldn't be pointing the right way. So the best way would be to have two controllers. Still an extra hole in...

    I have a KAB seat in Betty and it looks like yours, but worse. I just thought it was more coach mechanic buggery again.

    Solar project anyone?

    We have made Murky polarised with our panel changes. Even 600W on inclement days is not good. It seems we need to park north south or vice versa for best results. The panels are wire in series rows along the roof each side. Curved roof with furniture down the middle. At the M62 camp we were...

    Opinions, please!

    Just had a good look though their website. Interesting section about van conversions. I like the fact they point out that once you have converted your van to a passenger vehicle (motor home) it should be reclassified as M1, M2 or M3. Not private lgv or hgv

    Opinions, please!

    The style of the rivets and rubber surround look like KAB seating, though I expect they all import from China.

    Opinions, please!

    Does the seat have a brand name on it?

    Opinions, please!

    I guess it's the seat supplier I would question? It's only an of the shelf seat is it not?

    Bit of an electrical quandary ....

    Wow so many Jumpers, is it cold or a mass suicide? But seriously.... Well done Dave, but I wonder if it's too much for a british standard human to understand? Have you had a think about misplaced jumpers and will it fail safe?

    Compost toilet review

    I'm not ever accepting an offer of food or drink form a caravaner or motorhomer! I hate to think what people do to avoid using their limited resources. Personal hygiene is not just about you. Studies have been done that show how easily bacteria can be transferred from one surface to another.

    Compost toilet review

    Still if your waste is contained in a plastic bag. Your still adding to plastic waste.
