inverter

Hi guys in my van I have a leisure battery under the driver seat hooked up to my C-tek split charge and my fuse junction box which powers my led ceiling lights, some USB ports for charging and a battery monitor. Down the line I will add a fridge and sink etc via the 12v system. Im looking to...

I have a T6 semi converted. I have two 12v 6amp points at the rear of the passenger seats base. They both work fine. I have two corresponding 3 point plug sockets on the base of the drivers seat - they however do not seem to be working. I’m new to the camper scene - will the plugs only work if...

Hopefully some of you clever folk will help me with this. We are away this weekend and off grid. I really want to watch the match and so have hatched a plan. I have a 300w pure sine inverter which I plan to (hopefully) run a TV off for the football. The TV specs says if draws an average of...

Hi all, newbie alert so please go easy on me! I'm just in the late stages of buying a custom build 2/3 year old T6 Highline T30 SWB 150 DSG with Sportline body kit etc from Woodstock Campers. I'm considering using it off grid occasionally but it only has one leisure battery. Before I go back to...

I have had a leisure battery fitted with a ctek charger, what else is need to be able to have a 3 pin socket and some usbs in the back of the van? also will have halo roof connected eventually. thanks

Evening all We had our newly converted camper arrive around 2 weeks ago. We haven't had a chance to get out in it yet, no user manuals arrived from the converter yet so we are not familiar with how to navigate the kit onboard. Tonight the battery is entirely flat, had to jump it, and there is...

Was reading up about a few of you that had inverters last night and Sterling power ones. Problem I have is where to put it, passenger seat has a 120 battery and the CTek charger. My seat has a webasto under the seat. Ideally would like it to run from the secondary and was looking at the 1600w...

I'm in the process of spec'ing camper conversion and I need a bit of advice please. I have a T6 Kombi that I plan on fully converting in 2 stages: Stage 1 is roof, insulated, carpeted, electrics (2 x 12v sockets, 2 x USB points, 2 x 240v sockets, 4 x LED spot, 2 x led reading lights, dimmer...

Hi All. I was wondering if its very bad practice to place the inverter under the driver seat? I don't know if theres room yet. I have a battery, fusebox and ctek 250se. Or would it be best placed under my passenger seats? I have a double. Im only looking at a small inverter to run a laptop...

I hope all is well. I bought a Schneider CA2KN22P7 control relay from RS components to automatically switch between the hookup 230V supply (preferred input) and the 230V inverter supply (secondary input if 230V mains hookup not available) CA2KN22P7 | Schneider Electric Control Relay 2NO/2NC, 10...

RECOMMENDED INVERTER CABLE AND BREAKER OR FUSE SIZES

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...

Hi, I’ve installed a Victron 12/375 inverter that’s connected to a leisure battery and grounded to the chassis. I’ve plugged a tester in and it’s coming up with a Live Neutral reverse, but I can clearly see that they’re the right way around! Any ideas? Matt

Hi All, I have bought a Leasure Battery, CTEK charger and inventor. I was going to run an extension lead from the inverter, cut of the socket section and instead wire it to a fixed socket. Do I need to fit an RCD between the fixed socket and the plug going into the inverter? Many thanks, Matt

So.... I've got a ring dc/dc b2b charger and a whopping 1500w inverter next to each other under my passenger seat. I have 50mm2 cables running from the inverter to the batteries. Can I attach the charging cables to these as a common Earth and positive as they are the most direct route for...
