After I fitted mine I did some searching online for an idiots guide, and found this AI generated bumph on Google, which helped quite a bit.... The Ablemail AMT12-2 is a trickle charger/battery maintainer designed to keep a vehicle's starter battery charged from a leisure/auxiliary battery when...

A bit of a logic check please; I’ve read this Mobile Solar Panels ? . . . - How I Did It – thread from cover to cover and watched @Dellmassive excellent video, so I think I have got the basics in my head. We’re going on to Scandinavia for a month in July and I want to get a suitcase style panel...

Slight differences. Wonder how these translate into the real world usage.

Love that seat base thing.

Quite a lot has happened since August and I've been a bit crap at remembering to take photos but here's what I've been upto. First of all, I started the leisure electrics install. I did loads of research on here and on youtube about what I wanted and decided to start with a relatively simple...

if you plan on going for Ablemail AMT12-2 then it sits alongside the DC-DC charger. it relies on the fact that the Leisure/AUX battery is being charged by either Solar or EHU and will effectively "back-charge" the Starter battery - so if you have some Solar or EHU it will work fine . . the...

There are various guide on here and on YouTube about removing an old stuck on panel. It normally revolves around using a string or cotton line to saw through the adhesive behind the panel. Then wd40 or gum remover to get the rest off. It's advised to fit a piece on vinyl wrap to the...

i wouldn't recommend those. . . (no offence intended, but I've tested them and wasnt up to scratch)(but you could prove me wrong with any BM2 battery voltage plots showing the battery being charged) - https://amzn.to/3TLefvk for £55 your cash can be well spent else where. why? "Max power...

Thanks for this @Dellmassive ! I shall take a look. :) Are the mc4 connectors easy to connect/disconnect? I would have to add these connectors to the end of a newly installed PV cable as prior to this the wires were directly soldered to the preinstalled controller beforehand and they're super...

see here about chargers. . . Tip: as you say get a smart charger, plug into the 240v when on hook up, then connect to starter battery via clips, quick disconnect, obd2 port, 12v dash socket etc Charging: Battery Chargers - How I Did It - Battery Charging - Main Battery Earth Point - Battery...

Hi, thanks for the reply. Yes I did mean the fuse at the top left. Only reason I asked is if your midid fuse holder is the same as mine there is no way I could get that fuse lid to close on it with anything more than the 16mm2 cable you have to it. The other 2 small ones would prevent it...

Did the converter not explain the system at all? There's an air of "cheapest possible parts that will get the job done" about the install, I have to say. Like a (albeit, Victron) non Bluetooth PWM solar controller that costs £25 Vs a Bluetooth MPPT 75/15 for £55. Battery is I think a Leoch...

Hi, i have just joined this forum to find out more about VW conversions, i have been looking at 6.1 transporter conversions for two weeks and its a minefield!! i have now got my eye on one and plaining to buy one at the weekend, the owner has just told me that the microwave cant be used unless...

sound like good logic to me, that fridge is a compressor style so very low power when down to temp. the victron 75/15 is a good upgrade, your 85Ah AGM is your weakest link, giving you only around 42Ah of usable power - but as you plan to upgrade later thats all good. if you have a DC-DC you...

I look over their occasionally. I do not have a Camper but a 2019 199bhp Caravelle 4Motion with D/L see some familiar profiles occasionally and the engines and gearboxes basic chassis are the same. Slightly different feel to it though not joined just earwigged. Sometimes on here loads of...
