Hi, I have t6.1 with a ctek 250se and a Duritc battery charger. Just ordered a BM2 as the starter battery is being drained. The van is standing for weeks at a time and I’m leaving on the EHU at weekends but the charger is only charging the leisure battery. Is there a way to stop the starter...

Hi I'm just after a very quick bit of advise , I have tried the search function on this but no answer ! So in brief I'm moving across from the AGM instillation done by Sidepods many years ago and heading into lithium , now I know my Ctek is an old model with no Lithium profile and will be...

As a newbie to both campervans, and the forum, please be gentle. I've searched and read the forums for an answer, and have ended up with a fried brain, so apologies if the answers already out here. I have the D250SE installed, and have just purchased a Dokio 100w foldable solar panel. I read a...

Hi all …Looking to install the Ctek to my t6 , does anyone know where I can find the ignition switch live for the smart alternator? Any photos would be great also ideas of routing the cable from under the drivers seat. Thanks I’m new to this world of converting vw transporters so I’m pretty...

Hey gang, first post. Thanks for having me. I have just installed a ctek with 100ah lithium battery but it's only charging at 13.7v Using a multimeter while engine running; At battery 14.7v At ctek input 14.3v Output of ctek 13.7v Is this low? Thanks

This Ctek D250SA DC / DC charger (with built in MPPT Solar Controller) was removed from my van when I upgraded to a Renogy LifePo4 battery last year. It was installed for three years before I swapped it with the very similar (but Lithium compatible) D250SE. It's in full working order with no...

Any help would be greatly appreciated with the below Am just wondering if anyone has come across this issue before with a DC-DC charger. I first thought it was a faulty unit (CTEK 250SE) so changed to the RENOGY DCC50S but am still having the same issue. When the wire from the alternator is...

Hi, I had the factory fitted aux battery ( under a single seat with swivel base ) fitted to my T6.1 with the intention of using it as a camper leisure battery. After getting less than impressive performance and reading about how the split charge relay is a pretty bad charging method I wanted to...

I know Dellboy has done a huge post about solar charging, but I’m hoping this might be an easy workaround for someone less electrically competent. I’m about to have an EB55 delivered, nice and easy way to charge up devices when not on hook-up, I can charge it before we leave and it’ll then give...

Hello, Anyone able to provide an explanation for this? Van was at the repair garage for 2 weeks and during this time the leisure battery ran out - understandable as I had two trackers, WiFi router and a camera running and it was parked under trees so no solar! When I picked up the van and...

The whole setup is ctek d250se, Bluetooth battery guard, 110ah leisure battery, battery tray, cables and fuses. The kit is in great condition as it was installed by simply surf bus when I bought the van and not touched until removal by Bognor motors. So that makes it about 18 months old. It...

Hi all, I’m selling my unused CTEK D250SE DC-DC charger. It is with original instructions and not been used at all so condition is as new. I’ve changed my plan with leisure battery so it is now unneeded. These are around £250 new, looking for £175 + relevant postage costs (if not local to Bristol)

Before setting off a 4 hour motor way trip I took note of the state of charge on my leisure battery, it was at 20% and reported as in perfect health on the app. I thought by the time I got home it would be at least up to 75% or so. To my horror it was at 22%. 2 effing amps in 4 hours, which...

Hi, no lights on my unit. First the split charge light went out but solar still charging battery. Maybe 2 days later,the solar light went off so no charging of battery at all. All the connections & fuses/circuit breakers seem to be functional. The solar panels are producing current to the unit...

Hi, hoping someone can help. Just fitted the Ctech 250se + 120ah AGM battery, to T6.1, everything seems to be working fine but gets very warm when charging, is this normal?

Hey all. I recently bought a brand new 120aH AGM battery for my second battery in my car. I charged it up to 100% on a battery charger in my house and then put it straight into my car and connected it to my CTEK D250SA. On startup of the car the ctek began charging my battery at 14.7V and a...
