The sealant/adhesive hasn’t been degraded by UV by any chance has it? I know a lot of products are affected by UV but I thin’ you can stop that by painting over them

I got a bit lost I’m all the previous posts as to what folks were trying to do. I do exactly what you do Steve although I use a Votronic B2B..

All the battery thermostats I have for Votronic and Victron equipment say to mount them on the negative battery pole, (may have just said battery pole and I used negative). Not had my 700 out for a while but from my admittedly poor memory I seem to think you can either connect to VE or connect a...

Andy did an update on the Daly bms and was happy with how it worked 👍

Thought you may have been on to something there with the smart networking but it doesn’t look like it is set up. If I click on VE. Smart networking I get options to create or join existing networks. Am I right in assuming that means it isn’t enabled or do I need to create/join to disable it?

Do you only use your 12v in hab area when solar harvesting then Dave?

You are going to need lots of boxers Gregg lol

More weird stuff this week. I have the van parked outside the house and decided to do a bit of tidying on the electrical wiring rats nest. As it was getting very cold and to give a little extra space to work I removed both my Lifepo4 battery’s and both 30a chargers and took them in the house. I...

Does the Victron B2B not have a connection for a temperature sensor? I know on my Votronic B2B there is a connection ready but you had to buy the sensor separately

The exhaust can get literally red hot so make sure fuel lines aren’t close no matter what material you use 👍

Will have a play next time I get hookup somewhere. Only time I have had that this year was when I visited Charlie so may be time to go back there :) Charlie did come to see me in the Peak District yesterday in hid brand new MAN 4x4

I can’t believe how much they are charging for bus bars or strips of copper to make your own. I am sure I sent some copper and brass strip to scrap yard when I moved last year :(

Get an old salamander stove that will burn it, will be smelly and no use in the van though :)

You can charge them below 5 degrees but not at full rate, it’s when they get to zero you can’t charge.

Yes it is the latest type Inverter generator with pure sine wave output. Although a fair bit cheaper than a Honda it is not a cheap generator. If it was anything at the genny end would it clear turning charger off then on again? That’s how I get the charger back at 30a now when it’s putting out...

The Hyundai I have displays output voltage along with revs, running hours etc. it’s only something I look at when there is a reason though so can’t answer. It is something I can have a look at next time I run it and the charger starts pushing out excess current 👍

Definitely the Victron chargers not doing what they say they should. Can connect up and turn charger on and getting approx 45a showing on the BVM. Turn charger off then back on and it shows the 30a it is supposed to put out. I may have suspected a faulty charger but it does the same with both of...

I was going to say the same Dave, my understanding is you can still burn any wood but selling has changed. Of course I am know to be wrong occasionally lol

Will sticky back Velcro hold it in place?

I wasn’t impressed that Mrs said she is getting one installed this week :(
