    Leisure battery draining overnight

    Check that your split charge system is working. It’s common to get a blown fuse if you’ve run the Lb flat. Doesn’t affect B2B chargers bit I think the Sargent system is a VSR based system

    Van electrics upgrade - Shopping list sense check?

    ...a Smart Blue shore charger. I wasn't satisfied that the PX300 was a good match for the Roamer; Roamer were "ok" with it, but when speaking to Sargent I felt like I was getting wooly answers; for the sake of >£100 I switched that out for a Victron and rested easy that I wouldnt get a "told you...

    AGM vs Wet Lead Acid

    ...battery and do the upgrade to lithium battery, DC-DC charger and a new 240v charger. I have read that I will need to deactivate the Sargent EC155 Power Supply Unit 240v charger. Is there anything fancy to doing that or do I simply remove the wires to the leisure battery and remove the fuse?

    Induction hob recomendations

    I have this question too. Electrics is like which craft to me. Reading the instructions from my Sargent 155 I see (assuming the converter used correct wires etc) I can run up to 10a from the mains socket when on hook-up. Ikea say their 2000w portable induction hob draws 10a. Will the breakers...

    Tips for a (slightly nervous) new t6 conversion owner ?

    My tip is ensure that you know how your battery chargers/power supply works and how to monitor it's use. So many people with the Sargent type units set them to the wrong charge setting and the battery goes flat. Do that a couple of times and your battery is toast uless its lifepo4. Understand...

    Ec160 no power

    Plug van into ehu and Sargent display comes on , switch off ehu and display goes off. So I'm guessing no power coming from leisure battery for some reason ? Even though it's 12.7

    Hi all! Some advice please on a Sergent EC50 problem please. My leisure battery is fully charged (tested on voltmeter at 13v). I have a solar panel which constantly charges and of course when I plug in to mains. Problem is, when I select L battery on the EC50, it alarms and flashes red LED by...

    T6.1 Leisure battery and inverter

    Wow I amaze myself, the lights do all work from 12v!! But, to have any of them working I have to turn on the Sargent EC50 control panel. Is there a way to have the lights on without needing to turn this panel on? So the spots above the door can be turned on and off without the need for the big...

    Battery monitoring system

    I would presume for use. If it’s like my t5.1 it will have a relay between the SB & LB that charges both while you drive. My van has a Sargent control unit and I just leave it on LB when we are camping. The only time I press SB button is to get a visual of the battery status (it has five...

    ...much use! No idea but watching as my setup confuses the hell out of me! Put it on EHU and get alarms going off sometimes - but think the Sargent has been replaced by a different charger - leave it alone and solar runs everything fine for 3 days + Have loads of boxes in the electric...
