⏩ Where did this start?
I really enjoy tinkering with different projects - they usually require a whole bunch of research and learning along the way. It's satisfying on doing a thing and standing back and going 'Yeah! Totally did that!'. I had a bunch of mates asking 'how did you know how to do that?' and 'I couldn't never do that myself so I thought; I need to start something where I can help others that might be thinking the same thing :)
⏩ What will you find here?
The purpose is simply to make these videos as top quality and helpful as I can. They will always be free, there's ZERO agenda and the only motive is to try and upload what I would want to watch to help with that particular project. I'm also keen to keep building this little community and will try to answer all questions when asked - fire away :)
⏩ What's with the gloves?
Not after any KZfaq fame here which is why I'm not in the vids - they're not about me they're about the how-to! I used the gloves for the first couple of projects I filmed which just happened to be messy ones and it kinda just became a thing. Plus adds a little more personality I guess :)
New videos are being uploaded regularly so if there's something you'd like to see, have Questions and/or Comments drop me a line.
Cheers guys.

I am using through panel terminals to connect the main cables from the starter battery to the redarc cables my main cables are 25mm 4b&S as they are 6.6 mtrs long and if I have a fault with the redarc I can just undo the lugs. Hope that is useful tip

Hi, nice video ! I would like to install a Dc to Dc charger for my camping trailer. I would like to use it only when I do boondocking to recharge my 100 amps Lihium battery when it’s low and there no sun on my solar panels. Can I turn my RV on and let it go on idle with the Dc to Dc charger so it can recharge my battery. Can it hurt the alternator if it’s on idle for 1 or 2 hours ? Thank you !

You could do that sure, just be aware of your fuel consumption. If you're running out of power and more solar isn't an option I would consider increasing your storage capacity eg a bigger/additional battery

@@VideoShowMeHow thank you ! And what about my alternator ? Is it dangerous to damage it on a long run ? Is there a lot of amps produce by the alternator while running on idle ? I am thinking to buy a Redarc 12 v producing around 30 amps

Question for ya - how come the 1240D? Would thr 1225D not have been sufficient for that size Lithium battery? I have heard that lithium batteries can "receive" more charge, is this the reasoning for going with the 40a charger instead? Cheers

How do you determine if your vehicle has smart or dumb alternator? I'm looking at installing one of these in my vehicle with a 100Ah lithium to run my fridge, but I don't know what type of alternator my vehicle has and opinions online are mixed. Is there a simple/easy way to determine this by myself or do I need to go ask my dealer?

A few simple ways, some good info on redarcs website - www.redarc.com.au/how-do-i-know-if-i-have-a-variable-voltage-smart-alternator You can also check with a multimeter, a non smart alternator will run all the time so you should see around 14.4v at the battery always where as a smart will likely be less and sometimes into the 12.x range. Most cars sold in the last 10 years are likely to have a smart alternator.

I haven't had direct experience with those, they seem a little simpler, specs still seem decent. I like the fact with the redarc everything comes with, wiring ready to go and includes crimps, heat shrink etc and is essential waterproof with it's silicon elastomer covering the circuit board etc.
