what's the fix @Nabsim should i need to investigate and fix

Thanks - will try that first

Son pointed me to this video, quite amusing and informative

Not so far then, about an hour or so :)

Sounds good, we can move around more easily now.... are you far from me ?

My recent'ish acquisition of Mercedes 311Cdi Sprinter is, I think, good in many ways but she will not be big enough or spacious enough for full-time or extended stays in the Van Life. I am gradually doing her up a bit, electrical, cleansing, gas supply, hot-water, storage and so on and will sell...

Hey @Sprinter 1 cup - WHERE are you based ? Approximate location not street address ?

I think they would be after something more along the lines of this https://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/202004229034012

Looking forward to more images and details when you are ready @SquirrellCook :-) Think friends after something a bit more compact though, however as mentioned before I might be interested in yours myself as going to be homeless in a year or so......

As far as crimping ends to thick cable as @wildebus stated I recently purchased one of these http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/383565469809 It is NOT AS GOOD AS THE ONE @wildebus posted a link to above However, it works and the seller is some UK / Chinese reseller and they packaged the item really...

Sounds good. Spec and pictures would be great and a price. Thanks.

I find Snow and Curt a little annoying at times, however some of their content is pretty good and they are quite inspiring to take to the Van permanently and travel the world. It would be something that I would like to do one day. I would not be taking any animals with me though, seems a bit...

Some friends' of mine are after a Van. They have more money than me. I have advised them to look potentially at getting a base vehicle and employing someone to build them something. Are there any of you that offer a design and build service? Not really something I can do from scratch as not an...

No click or anything - No lights on the control on 12v - whereas there is on 240V Think I need to go through the wiring again and then give it a good clean by accessing from outside as advised Thanks for all the help guys

Have a Carver Cascade in the Mercedes, seems to work alright on 240V but can't get it to work on Gas and not sure where to start. There is 12V Going to Unit and Gas Supply but not sure how the ignition would work. Here's the control

I bought one of these https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Single-DIN-Car-Touch-Screen-9-Android-9-1-Stereo-Radio-BT-GPS-WiFi-Mirror-Link/323909708551 It is alright all in all for the money but the GUI is not that great

They work OK if you have a decent heat gun, I have used them. Not those exact ones but similar, likely come from same Chinese Factory anyway ! Have found that it works better if you tilt the wires slightly whilst heating solder as allows for flow. As above from @Nabsim have hit issues in cold...

I am a supporter of Big Clive and as such I get early access to his YouTube videos. Here I am sharing a Chinese Product that creates an ozone or hydrogen chloride based cleaner. Not yet for Public Consumption I think this would be useful for Van Life as it means you can just generate cleaner as...

Good point and no, not yet. Don't have the right colour. Maybe he could try but on some of the vanes the part where they slot in on the rest of the module has also been broken off in the past somehow. :cry:

Ah, I see Thanks @Edina
