    Plugged In Or Die?

    With the state of the world as it is at the moment, the van isn't going to get much use. So just wondered what's best for the leisure battery? To... a) Leave the van on EHU from the house? b) Just leave it to run flat (I think this is not good?) c) EHU every week or so to fully charge, then...

    Modifying A Consumer Unit?

    Would it be a bad idea to let a single gang unswitched mains socket into the side of a consumer unit under the drivers seat? It looks like there is plenty of room in the unit, good space between the internals. The idea is to retain the mains plug on the Victron charger so that I can easily...

    Mains Wiring/switching Question

    I have just spent a couple of hours helping my neighbour try to sort out some blown electrics on his "new to him" motorhome (not a VW). It looks like a home built setup, with either a mains hook-up connection or a 3.5kW inverter driving the mains sockets in the vehicle. It appears that it is...
