Is there a discount code for them ? https://midsummerenergy.co.uk/

Where are yours from please ? Link if possible I was thinking if I could fit TWO of the 95W flexi ones on Sylvia then I would have a total potential 475W of Solar Yield, which should be good for some off grid time I think.

As an update i was looking at solar panels for flexible options and found these which are less affected by shadows than some others. Would be interested to know if anyone uses them https://www.bimblesolar.com/95w-flisom-flexi-2m

I am not buying the "Possible New Van" Now and if anyone is interested I can put you in touch with the seller, in Hebden Bridge, West Yorkshire. Let me know. Thanks

Ha ha Well sorry to say having about as much luck as you !! This is what mine is on but it's a 160AH battery and Alpha Battery not Hankook and 100/30 MPPT Victron

What's your battery? I am pretty good at finding stuff online so if you give me the exact make model and anything else I might be able to find out some more info....

What ever you do make sure that equalisation is disabled. If you bought battery from a vendor rather than Hankook direct then maybe ask them ?

Just PM'd you LOL

Yes it was a link to the product, will check the link you gave shortly and thanks for your valued input once again @wildebus :D

I would not rely on External Power or EHU but rather have decent Solar as the primary power source; split charge relay as secondary power source; and then EHU as an optional third Power Source. EHU would be used at home when parked for top up in Winter and to send 240V to a few sockets in the...

Would it be OK to get a Larger one if the battery bank were to be upgraded in the future ? So as it stands 230AH = 23Amp to 46AMP Future possibly 800AH = 80Ampt to 160Amp So if I got https://www.cclcomponents.com/victron-energy-multiplus-compact-12v-1600va-70a-16-230v-ve-bus-inverter-charger...

I am looking at a Victron Charger for a Van build, one that could report on 240V Consumed and Power Used in that process. I am quite Taken with the Victron Multiplus units but sadly they are likely out of budget.

Fridge is OFF in Sylvia unless plugged into 240V as OLD Electrolux 3 way Job Since we are posting some history and yesterday was quite a dark day Vs Today (so far anyway) Here is my yield yesterday So from TODAY 27/10/2019 Yield will be less all over UK due to the clocks going back so would be...

2020 Plate Motorhomes are set to see as apparently by a ruling in the European Parliament, the VED for a new motorhome will increase from £265 (PLG rate) to £2,135 – a 705% increase – plus there will be significant higher ongoing yearly tax costs (for a further five years). There is a petition...

Just as an aside when I went to the motorhome show and spoke to a Vendor the TAX for new purchase registration Motorhomes or Campers is around £2200 Year one and £500 the next 4 years after that, some government change to get more income from those with Motorhomes who they probably deem as...

@wildebus thanks for latest graphs, where is your consumption bar data gained from ? Do you have Venus OS plugged into a BMV-712 or similar ?

Do you mean 120W Panel ? I don't think 120W panel with 125AH battery would be sufficient for use in the UK apart from 3 months a year in the situation you are proposing. Even with a 285W Panel and around 230AH of Battery and a Victron 100/30 MPPT I am not getting past Bulk State of charge...

I was speaking to a Boat Owner the Other day who has the following set-up: 1KW Solar panels Unknown amount of Traction batteries (Lead Acid ones from Forklifts he said) Controllers and Inverters etc Supplied by Outback Power (expensive and similar standard to Victron I think) He reckons on his...

No idea on "awning Bar" myself, I would guess it is somewhere to attach an awning. The Van I am thinking of buying next has no graphics and is registered as a MH so I take it these rules only apply to new builds going forwards? TIA

Really ? Would never have thought that, thought it would be sheet metal. It's a 1995 Transit and am struggling to find any information about them online, anything I look at seems to be post 2000 Transits. Do you have a link to verify what you are saying ? If it's GRP roof then will hopefully...
