Just had my rejection for 'external features' too. Obviously looks nothing like a camper....

Funnily enough, I was just thinking about that on my dog walk. I drain down, so I'm hopefully not at risk of pipes splitting. I'm thinking of parking the other way around so that any sunshine there is will be on the windscreen, and hopefully solar gain will provide heat now and again. I also...

Which mifi/4g router did you install?

Much more cost effective than the ones I looked at a couple of years ago. They were £200+ I think from memory, and arguably not worth it.

That is some TV....awesome....

Side entry, option 1, definitely for me. I've been scrabbling on the floor with a single version of Option 2 and it was a pain.

I think the Multiplus manual sets out that you need ventilation clearance top and bottom. Can't find the figure instantly, but I think they say 100mm?

I think perhaps you need to ask yourself this question: if water/water vapour were to get through the top layer where would you want it to go? If you tape both layers it'll get stuck in the middle of your floor, if you don't then maybe it'll work to the bottom and find its way out. Just my theory!

It’s good enough for Greg Virgoe!

Looking at it again, I've noticed it's only 150mm. 300mm isn't too bad, but it gets more pricey after that. I suppose a snag is that not being length adjustable you might be unlucky and not be able to get one that properly fits the tank you have. Barratt tanks, for example, for my vehicle are...

I may be talking nonsense here, so forgive me... I‘m probably going the Victron route for electrics and read that the monitoring stuff is able to do tank level reporting, but requires a specific sensor type - “European resistance” I think. I looked into this a while ago and they were...

Apart from the worthy Wildebus, I've been keeping an eye on prices elsewhere and no-one seems consistently always the cheapest, but On Board Energy often seem to be there or thereabouts.

OK, great, thanks. Hard to see a downside - although maybe one day old-style ones will get sold off cheap :giggle:

Thanks for the info. Poring over the manuals suggests they've taken out the bit about being able to mount the unit on its side, like you could with the old one - but I should think it would be OK, with good ventilation round it.

Afternoon Been looking through Victron stuff again and found two models of the inverter I've got my eye on: https://www.onboardenergydirect.co.uk/shop/victron-phoenix-multiplus-inverter-charger-12-1200-50-16-c.html#SID=40...

Loved it. I particularly enjoyed the method of getting extra elbow room to read the paper while sitting on the loo! Now that is specifying things in detail.

Now I'm not one to give medical advice, but a few years ago I looked at the base research that underpinned the Gov't reduction in daily units and found several interesting things. Understandably the health people distilled the research down (joke) to one simple message, but the picture was...

That's a good idea. I'll experiment a bit. Thanks!

Oh, if only!
