    Sargent or Victron set up?

    ...have a similar setup, victron for solar and dcdc charger, will get a main charger when my battery fails and I want to upgrade. Seems like the Sargent is quite good consolidated unit for consumer unit, fuses and control panel etc which I don’t think victron do anyway (at least not completely...

    Best kombi bed

    I have Vanking LWB system for sale, it was fitted in a van we have just bought but the wife now wants a seating area so we are getting rid of it. The van is going in for the refit end of November, but can be removed and sold prior to then. See attached brochure, it has the steel slider and...

    Phantom Leisure Battery

    Yes and I've contacted them. They say it was so long ago they don't have a record but they've been very helpful to be fair.

    Sargent EC155 not working / Durite relay.

    My fix with using the Sargent Ec155 with the smart alternator and using a Sterling dc dc charger and Agm battery type is as follows: I disconnected the ec155 charging fuse. The Sterling unit is fed by 12v from vehicle battery, ignition wire fed to Sterling unit. Set the Sterling unit to correct...

    Anyone got the wiring manual for this...

    Looks like one of the many different cases Sargent type systems. My guess is it will only talk to their specific solar controller.

    Upgrade to lithium battery, what do I need to change on my Sargent EC155 mains charger?

    ...that's powered from a plug socket on a separate MCB in my 230v box. I used the charging cables supplied with the IP65 unit and just left the Sargent wiring to the leisure battery as it was. If your battery is under the driver's seat, if you have room I would try and mount your charger there...

    Cerbo GX

    I gutted the power supply out of my Sargent unit too a few years back, and installed a Victron 25A charger in its place and used the digital inputs on the Cerbo for feedback to indicate when certain items are on or running as per the pic.

    Sargent ec700 issue

    We have a sargen ec700 control panel for controlling the 12v stuff in the van such as lights, water pump etc. The screen on it is terrible. Really unresponsive, and I quite often have to power it off then back on again. Has anyone else got this system? The van has to go back for a few other...

    What Have You Done To Your Van Today?

    Steady progress, need to secure battery cables and add a fuse box for the plethora of wires. Easy access to the isolation switch which gives me peace of mind.

    Leisure power upgrade

    ...Use the same size for the cables to/from the MPPT, fuse should be according to the manual - probably 40a MPPT 100/30, correct? For the Sargent, add up all your 12v loads if everything was turned on at the same time, and it's probably under 30 or 40a, then wire and fuse accordingly. The fuse...

    Help please

    When I did my conversion I followed the circuit diagram from the manufacturer Sargent which showed 2 12 volt feeds from the leisure battery to the consumer unit,one for the fridge and one for everything else. Both of these feeds had an in line fuse between the battery and the consumer unit and...

    Leisure Battery help please

    ...a full charge/load cycle on the bench - as expected thanks guys. Anyway I decided to find out more about the wiring by removing the Sargent unit, wow, what a messy way to wire it up! Including what I can only imagine was an earth that had been forgotten about and added to the exterior body of...

    Fresh water pump connector - how to undo?

    Okay, so to update with progress…. In frustration I disconnected the Rj45 connector at the back of the Sargent control panel and reset it. And it worked! New pump seems much less powerful than previous one, despite being same rating. So, thinking was it the panel all along? I reconnected the old...

    Off-side cable routing from drivers seat base to back quarter panel - help please

    ...driver's seat alongside the Roamer but in all fairness that's just for the Waeco fridge and Webasto supplies, the converter Redline had put a Sargent ec160 in the wardrobe for 12Vdc and 230Vac EHU circuits including the Roamers Victron 12/30 charger. As I say it's a bit rustic and luckily...

    Sargent EC50 alarming

    ...I think the black box charges the leisure battery from the vehicle battery. So suspect that the charging light will light when the vehicle is running. If there are no other lights night too sure what the problem is. Guessing you have checked the breakers on the Sargent grey boy (right hand...
