We all know Wildebus has been preaching the benefits of a lead acid/lithium setup. As many secret followers of this site may have noticed progress on the Betty build has become very slow. That said it's not forgotten and it's electrics have been working well. Even using it as an outside power...

I have my habitation BMV 712 display so that I can see it without entering Murky. Today it looked like it hadn't been charging. Firework damage? No, looking at the 100-30 solar charge controller there was no charge! Opening the app. It was claiming the temperature was -18 degrees. I don't have...

How's this for an idea? I know solar has been around for a long time for domestic use, but with increasing prices and a worthless infeed tariff, alternatives have to be looked at. We just had a suggestion that our electricity bill was going to increase to around £20 - £30k a year. It was bad...

I wonder how much it costs? https://www.bpw-etransport.de/en/product-detail/electric-drive-axle-55-75-t

As a few have already I've jumped on the Chinese LiFePo4 boat. Though reading peoples complaints the Boat might have a small leak. It seems they have been despatched early, but as yet no tracking details. I'll keep you all updated.

Betty came with a very sorry seat. As you drove over rough road surfaces, the seat bounced up and down making pedal control fun. That problem was dealt with some time ago. I'd say a simple fix, but with the seat assembled not much fun. This morning last weeks enquiry about new seat foams was...

As per title, how many of you have installed it or are planning on doing so? If so how far are you going? GPS, 3/4G? Bad experiences, what to avoid.

A little something worth mentioning is the climate grade when choosing a domestic fridge for motor home use. Many people don’t know about this, but many fridges are designed to be used inside a house. Generally these have reasonably stable temperatures. For motor home use, you should be looking...

I've mentioned this before on various posts/sites, but I've found the proof again. All motorhomes should be classed as PLG (M1) regardless of weight. And not any form of HGV. I don't intend any malice, it's just to inform and show how the rules are not necessarily followed by government...

Simple configuration. Plugged into the Mains hookup and you can flick a switch for the 240v element in the calorifier. As above but a Multiplus is inline with the switch on the output side. So you could heat the water from batteries. Battery saving/extra harvesting. Use a BMV relay to operate...

Having been keeping an eye on daily consumption we haven’t exceeded 1.5kwh a day. Air 2kw eberspacher is used each night. The 12kw water eberspacher is run twice a day for hot water. Radio most of the day. Water pump as and when. The engine starter batteries are permanently connected to a...

From my limited experience and being a fussy bugger I find most seating very uncomfortable. It doesn't help with so many people being very tall. That is over the normal height of 5'3" and that seating is possibly designed around them. I've always thought there must be British Standard Seat...

It never hangs around on my apple phone long enough to read, but when I'm swapping from one device to another this notice flashes before my eyes. Is anyone else seeing this. Better still anyone worked out what it is?

Just found these people whilst looking for something else! Tunatek - ABS Interior Trim Sets (tunatekauto.com)

Inspiration please, all ideas welcome.

Whilst having a bit of a PC tidy up, I came across this link I found. Might be handy for someone doing a new serious build. I don't have any connection with them or even tried them. Coldsaver Panels, Composite Panels, Insulated panels, Sandwich Panels, Aluminium Panels

I thought this evening to give Murky a treat and put the heating on for a couple of hours. Whilst fiddling with the victron app I noticed the solar had been changing each morning. It couldn’t have been putting much current in, as the sun doesn’t get around the house until the afternoon...
