Thats why I said I would be using an inverter if/when mine dies Dave ha ha I saw some posts earlier this year on motorhomer whee Ken was changing his fridge or someone else and they had to pay 2 grand!

Thetford know it’s a problem and do a fan kit themselves but of course it’s an extra. I didn’t post the spec earlier but it does say in their paperwork it was either 7 or 5 degrees c it has to meet. Charlie’s was one of those tall fancy things and when you read the spec the top of the range was...

My moho is built on a Sprinter chassis cab, if the door handle height is within 6 or so inches of your van then where I was looking is about the same height.

Not used this one, is it similar to Miliput do you know, I have used that?

I think if or when my fridge packs up that will be when I start to use an inverter in earnest rather than just to charge our MacBooks

I haven’t fitted mine yet as by eye one wants to be where the gas locker door is. Now yours are on and you have used them do you think they would be okay at a higher level?

Ah that the sort Charlie was looking at 👍

I don’t know how models compare but I know Charlie’s fridge was absolute rubbish. The dealer agreed once they had tested it but Thetford didn’t. The spec that quoted was not suitable for a fridge and it met that. That was a 2018 reg Hymer so a modern unit Really used to wind him up when we had...

Ha ha Dave, well I can make them sound like a jet engine 😂😂😂 I don’t think the cheapo Chinese silencers I have are bad at all. Interesting from the outside it looks almost identical to the Eberspacher item on the water heater under the front wing. You don’t realise how much inlet noise there...

I have a similar problem with 2 x Bosch and 1 x Varta PowerFrame batterys. The actual capacity has dropped to approx half their 90ah rating in around 12 months. To be fair though, in my case, the batterys gave good service for a lot of their life they just werent right for my high demand. I...

I would have thought the main issue (I dont think problem is right) using household 240v cable is the bulk. Automotive thin wall cable is much thinner for a given rating. What could be a problem is if you use 240v single core cable, thats not recommended for vehicles although it will work until...

Yes it was 2 strokes I used to do it with. I once remember fitting reverse megaphones to a 2 stroke Yam om my mates insistence. The lack of performance had to be experienced to be believed lol Back in the early 80's it was hard to improve on Yamaha own pipes performance wise but 3rd party has...

I can’t swear to it but looking at the pics of Raes inlet and outlet silencers they are the same as I fitted. Think I paid just under a tenner For both with extra pipe and fittings. The original ‘professionally’ fitted eberspacher had no silencers. When I fitted the exhaust silencer it was as...

I have gone right if ebay for selling but I am not a business seller. I always seemed to do something wrong and lose out, I know it is what I am doing but as an occasional user I thought it rubbish to sell. On the other hand I have recently sold loads of stuff on Facebook marketplace and it’s...

Yes I know they are no good for Lithium, no good for me but I am okay with what I have now. I just need to do something with mains charging for the back end of the year Did the solar actually power the B2B side when engine not running to give more boost or was it not that clever (CTej)?

This is a mammoth task to me and an extremely interesting read do do keep it up. looking at some of your pics though you are much better set up for tackling it than most van builders lol is it vehicle conversions that’s your trade if you don’t mind me asking?

I don’t know on eBay rules sorry. I was more joking that the price without VAT was too rich for me 👍 If I did have the money and I suppose more importantly the capability of doing a conversion I could purchase a new vehicle without paying VAT due to disability. The van would be built to suit me...

@wildebus heres a question going back to your CTec 250/smartpass comparison. Did I not read somewhere when Del was looking at this that it also takes a feed from solar into one of them?

Looking good there, what base vehicle is it?

Well I could get one without the vat but still too expensive for me lol
