So my new set up in the van - Fogstar drift pro Li-Ion battery, Victron Smart DC-DC charger for charging leisure battery from van (smart alternator), Victron Smartsolar charger and Victron Multiplus 2000W inverter. This works all very well -
But unlike my old Bilbos sergeant unit, there is no...
...barn door brake lights from Thq along with swapping out the interior cab lights with leds. After going away for the weekend I have found the battery nearly flat and only able to start after charging it for a few hours.
After checking with a multimeter the pull is around 1.6A, is it likely the...

Hi, I recently upgraded my LiFepo4 battery to one with better BMS control.
Now I have a spare,100ah, LiFepo4 battery. I have a few ideas but I'm unsure of how it would work....
Firstly, Andersen parallel connection to extend leisure battery capacity. I was hoping I could just plug this in if...
What's going on here then?
My set up is a 100ah SLA battery, charged by a VSR when on the move. Connected to it is a PMS3H which handles all of the mains etc. everything goes through a Victron Smart shunt with a temp sensor for the battery.
Also have a Victron 75/15MPPT connected which...
Help please.
My leisure power setup comprises a Renogy 100Ah Smart Battery with a Ctek D250SE Charger and I've also got a Jackery Explorer 1000V2 which they say has a capacity of !070W.
Assuming and ambient temperature of, say, 20°C and that both the Renogy and Jackery are fully charged when we...
...thanks to @Gosport_Jules ), so figured it was a good time to fit the Rusty Lee passenger swivel.
The problem I’ve got is my seat base battery sits slightly proud, and the rusty lee base protrudes a bit underneath via a plate and bolts. If I fitted the Rusty Lee upside down it would...
Hello all sorry if idiot question... Much googling and forum searching didn't turn up any answer.

Hi,
Wondering if anyone could help tell me if my leisure battery is dead? My van doesn’t get much use over winter and I didn’t drive or plug it in very often. I have a solar panel but there obviously wasn’t enough to keep it going.
I noticed when I went to camp in December all power was off...
Afternoon all
What would you guys say it would cost to externally fit a diesel heater with modem and comfort controller and leisure battery system where battery and DC DC charger is supplied by myself?
...Is there any reason why I should not plug the AC 3 pin output into the vans EHU socket (just as if we were on hook up) to charge the leisure battery. The Bluetti has Pass Thru charging so I could feed the AC70 via the Solar Panels at the same time. The reason for asking is that our fridge...

Hi Guys,
I have a VW T6.1 Transporter with a factory leisure battery. I was working on my van earlier today and had the passenger seat out to lay a cable to my starter battery (not connected). When I put everything back together, seatback in and connected up the leisure battery, I'm getting a...
...stink appeared to be coming from .
One of the batteries felt cool to the touch , the other very warm .
I assume the warm one isn't a happy battery ? Would this be correct ?
Details of the system and how it's wired are very thin on the ground , all I know is it has 2 AGM batteries, 2...
...start capability ? However, if it has, it appears to have been permanently disabled, which doesn't bother me. I need to change the existing battery which is a Yuasa EFB YBX7096, as it appears to be knackered & am thinking of replacing it with an AGM of the same size & capacity. Changing the...
