Thanks for the reply, Yes have been looking at the Clayton too. How long do you get out of the battery when you are off grid? I was worried the capacity would be too low for me. Realistically in only need a couple of days max

Thanks a lot. I would really want the battery under the seat so it sounds like I need to ratchet back my expectations as to how long could realistically last off-grid. Though below = 280 as opposed to 230 so gives you a bit more (at a price). Is it more difficult to put the seatbase battery...

So happy end (hopefully as long as it fits) Decided to go fro a Fogstar drift 105 after reading up a bit more on other threads - thank you all for your wisdom. Found a battery dealer 30mins down the road from me with stock so thanks for that @FWhite as would never have thought to look given...

From personal experience get the Renogy DCC50S and you've got up to 50A charging from the alternator or more normally the input is split 50/50 with the alternator and solar input. You can get an external mains EHU charger, I've got the 30A Victron but again from personal experience the only time...

No not really, 4 days are just maximum what I would stay in case my wife don’t feel well and it’s not like we will use all them each day except fridge, it’s hard to do this until you actually out and use it

Shame your not closer as you could have a borrow of my 9l alpicool and see how you got on If you can wait a week I'll be using mine and let you know what it draws amps wise

been busfesting, so off grid with beergoogle. looks like you have low voltage issue, 11.65v or whatever it is. maybe due to low battery charge, as you say its ok when engine running. cables too thin and getting volt drop? post some pics of the inverter, batts, connections etc etc

@Phil1 Well as far as Powerstations go it totally depends on your personal power requirements and how long your going to be off grid, but in my experience they work brilliant as an easy Plug & Play solution. if you have the space & budget you can go for a huge capacity PowerStation and be off...

I don’t (nor I’m sure will anyone else on here) think that it’s unorthodox. You’ve got to go with what works for you and what suits budget, use, aesthetics and so on. I do have a leisure battery as I specced it from build on my PV. I then converted into a day van/site van with the ability...

Just wire all your 12V to the leisure battery & fit a decent mains charger. That setup will automatically do what you want without any complications.

Hi Complete novice here. I have the CTEK D250se installed with a lithium leisure battery but I'm wanting a little more time off grid. I've found the ECOFLOW 220w folding panels. Are they compatible? Do I need any extra/additional plugs or cable? Many thanks

Took delivery of our new campervan in early May and have now been on a couple of camping trips to try it out. The first trip - a two-nighter in Northumberland on EHU - was a general shake-down of the conversion and a familiarisation exercise. The primary purpose of the second trip - a 6-nighter...

Probably a question for someone with an electrical background. I have a T6.1 with factory leisure battery plus an extra battery at the back(same type) with an (cheap Chinese amazon) inverter to supply the AC when off grid. I also have a changover switch and a mains hookup. So it's EITHER...

If the system is giving you what you need right now then no real reason not to replace with a good quality leisure battery (don't get a starter battery it will age very quick) and it will be more economical. The system you have is a competent touring and occasional night off grid system so long...

Looks neat. What panel is that please?

3 days off grid, with worst case scenario of zero solar (under trees, or just normal British weather!) with a fridge (25Ah per day), diesel heater, phone charging etc, a typical 105Ah LiFePO4 might be cutting it fine - you're looking at 75Ah for just the fridge for 3 days of use. Generally you...

Hi all, I've been reading through many leisure battery threads and i'm not quite getting the answer i'm looking for. A lot of the threads revolve around what seems to be converted campers or those who need significant power 'off grid'. I've got a T6 Kombi with seats only and an awning. When...

Yeah, no batteries or panels. My current set up just needs updating a lot as it has lead acid battery, ctek d250sa. I just want my 12v system to be able to work off grid, and then off the EHU
