Search results for query: Off grid battery

I’ve fitted a Fogstar drift quite recently. Nice compact and light. App looks very good. A split charge solution isn’t recommended for a smart alternator as it only charges the battery to 80%. Surely buying a power bank as a solution for off grid with the money you save by having an inferior set...

All looks very tidy, compact and contained. Is their a description for the uninitiated:)?

If you have plans to attend some of the forum meets you will need a solar panel and a nice 105Ah minimum lithium battery. EHU is seldom available at the drinking, sorry, forum camps we go to! Especially with the weathers we had last year! It makes it easier when you go out travelling to find a...

In this video at about 3:40 Greg goes through how to calculate the size of battery you'll need. If you haven't already done it, you'll need to know what you want to power, how long you want to power it for and how much juice each item will use. Will you be off grid for weeks or using EHU every...

I kind of wish I never put my battery charger in and went for an mppt and panel on roof instead. I still want one, I've found a 305w panel and mppt with all wiring for £349. All victron stuff

Hi all First post on forum so sorry if I’m in wrong section. Having a conversion done and including 70ltr underslung tank and hot water system. Suggested system is 3litre hot water capacity. For those with a 3litre capacity, do you find it enough. There will be two of us, so main use will be...

Price £65,500 REDCUCED to £59,950 - advertised elsewhere higher. Selling my VW Westfalia Kepler One 4Motion in long wheelbase form. No longer available in right hand drive and very rarely do they come up for sale, this example is exceptional powered by the desirable 170bhp engine and backed up...

That’s great info, much appreciated.

Welcome. It’s broadly there but a few bits I’d do differently. Those breakers from the MPPT are unreliable (unless you use expensive Blue Sea ones), the 12v loads would be better off the busbar rather than the MPPT, the cable from leisure battery to shunt should be fused as should all the cables...

Is a gasless LWB transporter with induction hobs, capable of being off-grid 5-6 days (running normal low wattage stuff plus appliances like hair dryer, toaster etc in the mornings with 250W solar on roof & 1+2 seating upfront) a task which is possible without a huge loss of storage space? e.g...

Did another test but this time only with lights and a invertor using a 4w house lamp Turned off Solar at 1.18pm , Shunt Votage 13.65 Left it for 1 hr just to make sure it was stable at 2.18pm , Shunt volatge 13.3V Lights on Shunt 13.28V , 1 amp , 14 watts Left it until 3.30pm Dont think the...

And after 10 years you could put a body in it probably?

When we were on the IOW in our camper back in July a large family group opposite had a visitor in an MG4 EV and the cheeky sod used one of the site hook ups to charge his car overnight.

I think several people, much cleverer than I, have done just that from various battery cars. I like the idea of plug and play, and the ability to drive it too

Inverter recommendation for 240v 1.65amp load (Bosch ebike Battery Charger BPC3400) I've got an ebike coming this week and would like to be able to charge it off grid. It has a 750Wh battery. I'll post a picture of the charger.

Adding a second 230ah ROAMER 230SBG4 @RoamerBatteries . it finally arrived. - this one is going under the passenger seat. . . a quick charge up with the 100A charger. . . . so the two batterys can be joined. always make sure BOTH batterys are 100% full before joining together. a...

I’d start at the basics, what is it you want/need to power , how often and where? Once you know that you can design the system to do what’s needed. At present it appears to be massive overkill in some areas (multiplus, Cerbo) and very under speced in others (solar). If you want off-grid then...

Yeah - if you want to use 240v stuff on an inverter AND be off grid for more than a day or 2, you really a big-ass set up in every way: Battery, solar, DC-DC. Real world example, on my euro trip last year I stayed at a campsite which was a fairly shaded spot. I was there for 3 nights, or 2.5...

If you want a hand give me a shout. Will send you a pm.
