    Three Way Charging / Mixing Old and New Tech

    Also I'm not sure how you would clear all collected data, say after doing an upgrade. Under those conditions it would be nice to start fresh. I have some rubbish info on my first BMV from when I was trying to figure it out.

    Three Way Charging / Mixing Old and New Tech

    I'm must admit it caught me with my pants down when I installed my last BMV. I wasn't prepared for the updates, it seemed like I had no or little warning about the effects of what it was doing. I was right on the limits of my wifi too.

    Three Way Charging / Mixing Old and New Tech

    Unless I've got the wrong end of the stick, surely the BMV has to learn? You have to tell it the parameters it's working with. Then when you've been through some full charge and partial discharge cycles it will learn and give useful information. Also I'm not sure which battery you are trying to...

    Three Way Charging / Mixing Old and New Tech

    I don't expect it's only me, but it hard to get your head around the idea of a load being on the negative side of the battery. I just keep reminding myself that everything must go through the shunt to be recorded.

    Violating a Princess!

    The plaxton door should be a good fit once it's aligned properly. Murky folding electric doors work well and has a good lock. I did start to make a drop bar for the doors then decided it was over kill. The weather seal does not look wonderful, but you don't get any bad drafts. The way I...

    Violating a Princess!

    I've seen pictures of the mechanism used and it seems overkill. Murky has electric folding doors and on the whole they work well. Not that hungry either.

    Violating a Princess!

    Finally managed to crawl underneath and fit the air suspension again. Cleaning and painting will have to wait until the weather is better. Big question … Air Door! I was planning on repairing the system that operates the air door. Is it necessary? The door functions as a normal swing door...

    There are many versions from 3.5 tonne up. length and width options too. I think RAW's picture is 4 wheel drive.

    Permanently fitted leisure battery charger?

    24 volt starting. 2 x 12 volt 90ah So using one charger on each battery to keep them balanced. 12 volt habitation 2 x 6 volt 220ah The remaining one for emergency use on this. As all the chargers were the same, if a problem occurred they could be swapped or moved. As it happened they never...

    I have Three of them. Originally supplied with two options for the charge lead. Option one. Wired in. Option two. Crocodile clips All I know I have is the "wired in" type charge lead.

    Permanently fitted leisure battery charger?

    Ha ha, how did you guess? I think there is only one charge lead for each one.

    Mitsubishi Fuso/Canter

    So has anyone thought of using a chassis cab version of one of these. They don't seem to be silly money new. They even make a "Rosa" Bus/Panel Van Version but not for the UK I think.

    Top End Mercedes HGV Truck, like Band Touring Vehicle

    I expect you'd be turned away from a lot of campsites with that. Then with a car garage in it you'd struggle to convince someone it's a motorhome.

    Yes that's the ones, but I don't want anything like that for them.

    Permanently fitted leisure battery charger?

    TecMate TM202 12 → 24V 3.5A Battery Charger, with EURO, UK Plug At 12V they are 7A I would say they are about 5 years old, but Anita could look that up I expect. I have 3 of them. I think they were about £150.00 each. So make me an offer. I thing I have learnt though is disconnect them from...

    Permanently fitted leisure battery charger?

    I'm about to upgrade Murky's Mains charging to Victron units Blue Smart IP22 Battery Charger 12V - 15A 1 Output for the habitation batteries. Blue Smart IP22 Battery Charger 24V - 12A 1 Output for the Engine start. If my calculations are correct, due to the new efficiency I should be able to...

    Should I change my solar panels from parallel to series?

    After torchlight wiring Murky now has 2 x 3 solar panels with the series sets running the length of one side of the roof. Some wiring anchoring still required, but it's good enough for test. Assuming the sun will pop out to say hello today..
