...battery is down to 11.5v and still dropping. I’m guessing I have a fuse blown somewhere or the charger is faulty. I haven’t really liked the Sargent charger since I’ve bought the camper and everything else has been changed to Victron. Does anyone know what Victron charger would be a good...

Does anyone know of someone who is good st repairing Sargent 155power supply units in the Glasgoe area

...Starlink system from the dashboard USB socket, not realising that the shore power was not charging the battery (breaker had tripped) Now the Sargent EC30 is not showing a battery voltage or providing power when in the vehicle battery switch position. Leisure switch position all working. When...

Hi, I have 2023 T6.1 using a Sargent EC176. Previously I could select either leisure or vehicle battery as power source. However, when I try to select the vehicle battery as source now it says "vehicle battery not connected". I have tried changing the 20a fuse labeled vehicle battery on the...

Hi, This is my first post have been lurking the forums and digesting loads of great information. My question is would i be better off with a sargent set up or a victron type one? Mainly going to be off grid , intend to fit solar to roof and a lipo battery, opinions gratefully recieved, Thanks in...

Hi, I need to relocate my sargent unit as it's in the way of some units I'm getting fitted later this month. Just want to double check with anyone in the know with my process. Measure out units dimensions on the floor and panel. Switch off leisure battery isolator switch under drivers seat...

Hello all, I'm looking for any help and advice when installing the sargent ec155, I've read through the wiring diagram and I can understand a majority of it however I'm struggling to see how the connection is made between the ec155 and the leisure battery, the brown and blue wire is the 12v...

I have the same set up as you banksey88, Sargent EC155, sterling B to B1230 and solar mppt. I changed over to a lithium battery before last summer. I changed the charging profile of the Sterling B to B and the mppt. I left the Sargent as it is . The lithium leisure battery charges up fine. I...

...to get any immediate advice - so here goes: T6 Transporter 2017 - Euro 6 compliant We bought the van newly converted in 2018, it has a Sargent EC155 power unit & Sargent Ec50 Control panel. I finally got around to investigating why the leisure battery was not being recharged during...

The Sargent PF200 only has a dc output, there should be a consume unit with rcd and mcb’s for the mains sockets. By the description on the Sargent website when connected it can act as a 12 volt power supply as well as charging the leisure battery.

Hi all I've been running the Sargent EC155 for the last 5 years or so and it's done the job. I've just upgraded to a Lithium Fogstar battery from my lead acid LB and the Sargent now keeps alarming randomly for high voltage. I've not changed anything else and have read that the Sargent's don't...

We have charged our AGM battery through the Sargent on EHU for 6 years, they took the charge no problem. We are getting 2 batteries fitted next week (one to replace the current battery under the passenger’s seat and one additional one under the drivers seat). Do you find the 2 AGMs give you...

Hi I have an alarm going off on the Sargent panel when plugged into EHU and charger switched on. Beeping and flashing green light at top right - stops when disconnect EHU (which was connected to house socket - only way to stop it). Charger is EC155 and controller EC50. It also has a solar...

Well from what I understand, you need to keep the Sargent connections to the leisure battery regardless of using the charger or not, when I took the wire away from the LB the Sargent control panel did not operate. On your Sargent you will likely have 3 mcb's in it for the 240v side. Are all 3...

Thanks for making it a bit clearer. I do have a consumer unit with Rcd’s. So I can get it straight in my head does the shore power connect directly to the Sargent which feeds the RCD’s and from the RCD’s there should be a feed that charges the battery?

I’m a bit confused what to buy as I have a mains charger at home already but I don’t know if it carries out the same purpose as the Sargent. As far as I know the Sargent allows the 240v plugs to be used when on hook up but also charges the leisure battery. Would a bluesmart ip22 30A be the same...

I have a similar setup with a battery and victron b2b charger under the passenger seat and a victron MPPT under the drivers seat and a Sargent in the back. My AGM battery is now 6 years old and needs replacing, I wanted to go lithium as well as is almost the default now but was recommended to...

Good evening all, we are currently away and after a 4 hour drive yesterday I was amazed that the leisure battery status on our Sargent panel shows it as flat with the 1 single red LED. Anyway,day I thought will leave the solar to do it's thing, and after returning from a day out panel showed all...

Mine moans about a flat vehicle battery from time to time too. I may have fixed it by reseating the fuse for the ignition on the main sargent box. But I will check out another fuse box the installers put in for their integrity (thanks for the tip)
