just a heads up in case oyu dont already know. That feed voltage varies IF you have the instrument dimmer swtich installed. It drops to about 3.5v from memory at the dimmest setting and usually it wont trigger enough power to feed LEDs - or at least the LEDs I had fitted were impacted by it. So if you have a dimmer and dim it and they go off now you know why.......
 
An internal thermal/blackout screen, self supporting, no suckers! Folds up nicely too, only thing to be aware of is, you will need to remove the THQ rubber strip if you have one fitted at bottom of screen, so blind can sit in nicely, a 3 second job, brought from ZEAUSAVANGEAR, made in Uk and they do a whole range of magnetic fit blinds.
We usually use the external screen but want an alternative with us if we park up in big storm, we are planning an Arctic circle road trip up into Sweden/Finland in February.

Just bought 2 new front tyres. Went for Uniroyal Rainsports in 245/45/20. Had them on other vehicles in the past and been happy with them.
Need to book it in for Hunter alignment as it’s 4 years since it was done and the fronts were worn on the inside edge, as was mentioned in last week’s service report.
 
My 2018 Highline camper has still got its original Varta 70Ah EFB battery but it's showing signs of a slow death so I ordered a replacement from Tayna today. Hopefully it will arrive early next week and is as easy to fit and code in with Carista as it's supposed to be. I sized up to an 80Ah but didn't want to go any bigger as it's a bit tight in there. I'll report back next week once it's in (or otherwise!). One of these:
A6 Varta Dynamic AGM 110 Car Battery 12V 80Ah (580901080)

I had my Bosch 80ah delivered to my son’s house on Wednesday. He complained about the weight of it when it was delivered. Good job I didn’t get the bigger one! Hope to get mine fitted on Sunday or early next week.

Loving my new gadget. I've discovered that the flashing red LEDs add a touch of festive spirit to taking the bins out - does this qualify for the two uses rule?

No but it does if you break down on an Autoroute and stand 100m back from your van
