Second outing after battery went flat

[T6oldgits]

So first weekend found my t6 swb a little bit tight battery went flat and 500w fan wasn't up to the job. I put double swivel seat in think I've worked out the electrics got a 2 KW heater and just in case bought a noco 150 booster. Let's try again

You don’t say how you are powering the heater, or which battery went flat (leisure or starter).
Hope it works out this weekend, but it might be worth posting your setup for some advice to ensure it all goes well this weekend.

Cheers for the response I'm new to this forum thing never been on one before. I'm using site electrics think I was on starter battery instead of leisure last time but I'm covering all bases this time, small steps we'll get there.

As above, hard to comment if we dont know your setup, 500w from the site hookup is trivial, some sites will trip at 2kw, but a typical unassisted battery won't give 500w for much more than half an hour, then its flat. It all depends on your installation - solar? B2B? static for the weekend or some driving? Whats the hookup charger? Leisure battery capacity?
Cheers

Hi Phil thanks for the comments on Friday. Just got back after Fri sat night away every thing went well no problems with the cold 2kw fan nailed that and the swivel seat gave lots of room. As for the set up I have a Sargent EC160 power supply unit and a Sterling b 2 b charger the site power was 16amp I followed the instructions of the power supply unit this time and things went well. Lesson learned.

Great stuff, glad you enjoyed it Swivel seats are a revelation, they make a huge difference to the accommodation space.
Cheers
