As a matter of interest Dave as my sister in law has bought a Mercedes Vito, that has a Domestic fridge fitted run off an inverter that simply kills the liesure battery in hours even when the fridge is set at lowest temperature and has a very efficient 100watt solar panel. What domestic fridge...

Sorry mate, just that sprinter was asking how to fit (his) fridge and it was obvious to those that know that there are blanking plugs over screw holes. But yes others might indeed be fitting domestic fridges. Phil 🙃 P.s. The way you have fitted your domestic fridge of course could be used to...

True Dave but in his photos it clearly shows the blanking caps over the fitting holes. Phil

Usually the fridge would sit in between two cupboards or at least between two upright dividers, then screwed through the two plastic bungs (Once removed) on each side of the fridge, you can see these bungs when the door is fully open on each side top and bottom. Phil This is my set up you can...

Never say that In front of a Welsh man 😁

Just out of interest I googled the average price for auto lpg per ltr. https://motorway.co.uk/sell-my-car/guides/lpg-cars https://www.globalpetrolprices.com/United-Kingdom/lpg_prices/

I'm still only paying 53p a ltr at Cardiff gas in Barry South Wales, even Morrisons in Barry is only 57p a ltr. I'll ask my son how much he's paying in Burgess Hill in Sussex. I can only think that you in the south are definitely being ripped off. Phil

It was only 2019 that trains should have stopped dumping toilet waste directly on to the track, in point of fact there are still many trains dumping on the tracks in 2021. The theory is that at high speed it is vaporised and spread thinly to be oxidised and washed away on the next rain. When...

As for emptying the cassette I put in a fall y section into my soil stack with a screw on blanking cap, all available from your local plumbers outlet. So when I return home I can easily and cleanly empty the cassette outside using the outside garden hose to flush it out. In 30 years I can...

Well nobody has mentioned it so I will. The heat is great! Most folk complain when it rains too much so this is the antidote. For those that don't remember, it may seem hot to you now but in 76 the temperature stayed at between 30c and 36c for a full six weeks, and Ladies and Gentlemen that was...

You can bet your life on it that if the error was vicky verky you would have been put into court if you refused to pay it because of lapse of time. Phil

Good find Squirrell, I've known for years that travelling in the rear seats was not illegal but frowned apon, but could never find the official wording and form. Phil

Just for the interest of those that would like to be informed. The problem turned out to be the earth strap from chassis to the gearbox. The gearbox end was heavily corroded, once removed and cleaned up all started working as it should. The strange thing was that the starter motor which shares...

My neighbour has a Peugeot based motorhome 2004 that has a charging problem, he asked if I could look at it, it started apparently not to charge the cab battery a couple of months back so he would take the cab battery of and recharge it off the vehicle. The ignition light comes on when turning...

Depends on what you want to do with it Gregg, just tyre or air tools ? And how much you want to pay for it. I'm assuming its just for tyres going by you have one for the car. Phil

Hi Nabsim, the reason for an expansion/accumulater is to stop pulsing of the water flow caused by the water pump using the accumulater, and to help with thermal expansion in the hot water system by using an expansion tank. In general the use of an expansion tank in a motorhome is not necessary...

A Truma combi4 has a max working pressure of 2.8bar = 40 psi. So I would personally go for the 30psi as there is little difference in price if you shop around. As for the flow of water from a small storage tank, you can open the taps to a dribble or full flow it's up to you, but at least if you...

Looks really well put together, very professional. I'm impressed 👏. Phil

We have 7, 2 at the front one by the TV midships and two on either side of the rear day seats, this does not include four on the dashboard for travelling use I.e. dash cam, satnav and two for phone charging whilst driving. When static we can be in any area of the rear and reach a USB port even...

Have you seen the cost of copper pipe and fittings recently, it's skyrocketed in the last 2-3 years. I needed some pipe and fittings to run water out to my green house, I ended up running garden hose to the green house and just a short length of copper pipe that I had left over from a previous...
