    Leisure battery upgrade

    Hi guys I have had my LB fitted for a few years now and the original 105ah isn't really big enough so thinking about Lithium 200ah but looking at all the well known brands I'm not sure if it will fit where the current battery is. Any recommendations? I don't really want to use the other space...

    Charging from another battery ?

    Have I understood this correctly? You are taking 2 vans camping, one with the Clayton and another with a beast of a lithium that you want to use to top up the Clayton, is that right? It’ll work in theory, but you are still only using stored power, you aren’t inputting any power into the system...

    What coffee machine and inverter to power?

    This is a great thread — loads of real-world setups here 👍 From what I’ve seen (and played around with a bit myself), most of these pod/table top coffee machines sit around 1200–1400W, but the bit that catches people out is the startup surge. They can spike quite a bit higher than the rated...

    What coffee machine and inverter to power?

    My budget Tassimo is rated at 1250 watts, but actually peaks at 1930 according to Cerbo. The vans 2000 watt inverter in the van does grumble a little but completes the job! Nowadays the coffee machine lives in the awning and my Bluetti AC180 powers it, the airfryer and toaster (independently...

    Which NOCO trickle charger....

    If you’re intending to go for a 230A LB in the future, I’d recommend something bigger than a “Trickle” charger. Trickle chargers are typically around 2-4A and are used for maintenance charging. If you’re wanting a mains charger to keep up with every day use, you need something in the 15-30A...

    Should I upgrade/replace my electrics? - Complete Newbie to T6

    Renogy recommend a 100 amp hour lithium battery per 1000 watt of inverter. Saying that, the SLA battery he has should be able to run it providing the battery cables are very short, as sli batterys suffer with bad volt drop. As an example a 1000 watt inverter with a 1,000 watt load will pull 80...

    I’ve started to install my power upgrade and thought I would post a thread on it which might be useful for others thinking of upgrading to lithium. I would like to point out that I am far from an expert on this and as much as I am capable of doing the installation I am totally reliant on the...

    This time around, day van that can double as a camper

    Thanks. Initial plan was a smaller battery, but was upgraded by converter, also because I'm not going down the solar panel route at the moment wanted it to be able to cope if I wanted to go 'off grid' for a short while. While I'm going to use a power bank for the interim, theres a possibility I...
