How many windows are there Alec on both sides not including the passenger and driver windows, size although not mentioned in their reasons to pass I'm certain that in this case size matters. Phil

No probs Harry, I know how you feel and what it takes to get through a build. 🙂.Phil

In my experience the best solution for battery longevity of charge is without doubt solar panels, if you drive for 2-3 hrs per day when touring then improving your mechanical charging is good but as soon as you stay for 2-3 days in one place there is nothing to beat solar panel(s) with a good...

Today's offering, I have now almost finished the wiring using a second hand Sargents EC155 and making up my own wiring loom. I've used various wire mainly thin wall auto cable and double insulated aeronautical grade stuff I got from my son who works in the aeronautics trade. I used 11 amp for...

I have been in consultation with the DVLA for the past 6 months, in September last year I sent in my D2 & D4 forms all duly filled in present and correct, sent them off luckily recorded post ( They specifically say it's not needed) after 12 weeks went by the saga started I eventually got...

I feel I should apologise Dave, I didn't mean to make you feel uncomfortable and I have unintentionally interfered in your thread, I admit that some of the things I said specifically about selling on this site was uncalled for and I withdraw that comment unreservedly, your threads are of...

Oh Dave! we aren't returning to the scenario of you flogging equipment on here again are we, that this is all really a disguised sales pitch, I rather hope not, as your experiments are as I said interesting in the main. It also seems that I'm not the only one on here that it has never...

The point I was making Dave is all though there are contributors saying that 12+ is destroying Led lights etc they in the main are quoting third party instances and not instances that have happened to them, they seem to have jumped on the band wagon and are distributing mis information. Which...

With the greatest respect Dave, as it is obvious your knowledge on electrical matters is good, but for the life of me I can't see the point of all this other than interest and experimentation. As I have been Caravanning and Motorhoming for many years and other than the hab batteries going west...

Seems to be what you require, but looking at the advert it looks like they are giving a misleading photo of the sizes available or they are using the same size containers but only partially filling them 🤔.Phil

Exactly what we noticed most, 😁.Phil

One point I think I should mention is that folks will notice the ply boards are set back from the A&B pillars, although this makes it more difficult to construct rather than straight boards from ceiling to floor which avoids the necessary detailed cutting and fitting, the extra 150mm at the top...

Thank you for your compliment Phil. Firstly many years ago before I met my wife Eileen who was struggling to bring up 4 children on her own ( Long story) My now Sister in Law paid to have a boiler fitted to Eileen's house at the time, at great cost, and I've never forgotten her kindnesses and...

Here we are again. Few photos of progress so far, it doesn't seem much has been done but for those that have not done a full conversion or are thinking of doing one this is the culmination of three weeks hard physical and mental activity, from 10 in the morning till 1600hrs, those that have done...

The latest, all insulation in place electric hook up lead fitted ready for the consumer unit and all but one ply side glued in place ready for carpeting, the fridge mount area done but will get better photo tomorrow to show how I've had to offset the grills etc. Phil

Good luck with doing that though, it's now in the seventh month of them trying to sort out my Grandfather rights licence after they said they had lost the application in their system. I was phoned by a leader in their open case team on 5 Jan to say they had sorted it out and my license with my...

Well Sunday dawned with rain in the offing, but now I've completed all the outside work on the van I concentrated on the finishing off of the fridge mount and boxing in and the bottom panels of 50mm insulation, all now in place ready to be glued in and foamed around the edges and gaps tomorrow...

Very little comes through in ordinary circumstances Squirrell a dribble that soon drys out without any damage, but if your jet/washing with a hose that is the time to be careful. Admittedly this is based on the Dometic L100 & L200 vents but these I've used now should be no different, in the...

Right now I'm well into the fridge mounting area, because it's a cheap Chinese 3 way fridge the exhaust exits opposite to conventional European 3 ways, so I've had to offset the vents to allow for a proper exhaust through to the atmosphere the Dometic top vent LS 100 is no good for this fridge...
