Just seen this video by Gadget John on YouTube where he found a very dangerously jointed cable on an Ecoflow supply lead.
Could have caused a fire if he hadn't found it, and judging by the fact that the cables are covered in sheathing from the factory, no-one would have had the chance to spot it.
I've got a Sterling ProPowerQ 350W Inverter which the instructions tell me I should install with a 60A fuse, however the cables are 12AWG which I belive equals 3.31mm
3mm cable 33Amp Single Core Thin Wall Cable - 3.0mm² 33A
How can this be right, the fuse is rated so much higher than the...
I have 220 AH of Gel leisure batteries, a 75/15 Victron solar regulator and 200 watt of folding solar panels what inline fuse should I use on the positive side to the batteries, Is 20amp the size fuse that I need?
thank you,
John.
Hi everyone, does anybody recognise this loom? I moved my T6 2016 Caravelle and this was underneath it! Can't help thinking it's not a good thing. Drove fine last time I used it.
I have a surplus of solar cable left over from when I fitted my panel a while back.
I’m now in the process of installing a separate solar charge controller and making the ctek solar charger redundant (due to solar panel being too big VoC).
Is there any issue using solar cable to link the solar...
Here’s a new one for me. Anybody ever been sold heat shrink tube that doesn't work? It looks right, feels right even smells right but all it does is burn…and it ain’t shrinking! :uh run:
Hi All
I recently bought a 2016 T6 that has been converted by Teahpoo. Will get some pics up shortly.
The power management unit is a PMS3H and i have a RM123 fridge.
I can operate this on gas but as yet have been unsuccessful running it on 240volts or 12v DC. My assumption is that this is a...
I recently managed to get hold of a kicker under seat sub and few other bits, I ordered some power cable but as you can see in the pic it’s not the same size as the one fitted to the original adaptor.
Does anyone know what size cable this is so I can order some more?

I’ve had an unsuccessful search for pictures & posts of cables coming into the cab from the engine compartment to be routed under the passenger seat.
It’s the routing I’m actually after recommendations for.
Should I go down the centre as per the factory loom or follow down the wheel arch and run...

I've drawn out about 10 different ways to route cables from my leisure battery under the drivers seat to my electrical cupboard at the back of my van. This is the route I'm planning on taking but thought I'd look to see what you've all gone for and see if anyone has any other suggestions ...
I am looking for some insulation like in this pic as the wires to the ceiling lights in my ply roof (that I taped down) seem to have come loose and I can now hear them bouncing on the ply roof. I was hoping to find some of the sponge tubing in the pic will stop this even if the wires are not...
