It will keep beer cold all day but they need 1-2 days in the fridge set to 1c before you go out. When on battery set it to 4c and eco will be good all day

I've got a 2003 diesel step van (w/ 2 starter batteries) and don't think it has a smart alternator. I was thinking of a DC-DC charger but IDK if it's necessary or better? I was planning of getting some lithium batteries maybe 100ah or 200ah. Any thoughts?

Hi guys nice job thinking of doing this to my lwb van just a quick question doesn't the wooden battens expand and contract with heat or is it to minimal to worry about
@simplycampervanconversions16 күн бұрын
To be fair it’s been on three years nearly now with no issues. You can’t see the battons how the van has been finished so I couldn’t say.

would it be possible to put a pop-up roof *on* the Volkswagen roof? so the height of the upstairs bedroom could be increased?

I don’t think so as it’s fibreglass I don’t think it would have the strength would be great if it could though. Thanks for watching.

Are you self tapping screws straight into the plywood and into the van roof for your support beams? won't we cause leaks?

@simplycampervanconversionsАй бұрын
The foil insulation and insulation tape is fine. The idea is to stop the hot air reaching the cold panel as this will cause condensation.

Great honest video. One thing you didn’t mention that is a big advantage for the eberspacher is the ability to plug into diagnostics that being if your near a repairer with the appropriate software, I’ll be honest I have used eberspacher for years until recently sold the last horse box and left the heater in it. On our new truck I fitted the Chinese heater and did notice the obvious little difference in quality but to be honest for the difference in price you would expect it but it runs exactly the same and does everything it’s supposed too. I paid 120 for it so even if it lasted a couple of years it’s cheap enough to throw away and replace. 👍

Anyone know what type of connector to use to charge the battery with solar panel and also what is the input voltage range for PV?

Thanks for the review. Just got one of these (original green version) and, with the caveat that it's not 'pro kit' I quite like it. Even for the nostalgia of it. I have a question though - Does anyone know what the four screws are for in the accessories kit please ? Update: Had another look and it looks like there are 4 holes at the bottom of the box and the screws are for screwing it down to a workbench. The box is quite light without the tool bag in it so kind of makes sense ... until you want to move it.

I’d put the bed in first just in case the bolts end up where the tank is.

Why do some put the primer on the van as well as the glass? Your way seems better seeing it stops the primer running down the paintwork

I’d always check the instructions with the kit you get as some say different than others.

Greetings, I am very concerned about diesel fumes pervading the cabin. I can see where a vented lid with one way air flow would be good at keeping the fumes out of the van because the fuel removed as the heater is used must be replaced by air. Questions::1) Does the tank have a vent? Have you had any issue with diesel vapors? Thanks!

How do you this on a 2017 Transit Custom? The sliding door has deadlocked shut and cannot open from the inside or outside I suspect it's either a fault wiring loom or the cable for opening on the outside has dislodged from the eyehook in the lock mechanism. I cannot remove the lock and it's driving me crazy.
@androidloid21912 ай бұрын
I've just installed a second-hand sliding door lock and now the door won't open from the inside and outside. The lock works with the keyfob and I think the manual switch for the child lock is on so cannot open from the inside anyway. The sliding door won't open from the outside. How strange is that?

Offcourse you can use this in a campervan, if you link directly the 12v 30 amp output to your campervan fusebox..and get rid of the complex overpriced victron system..plug and play, deplug it easy and charge it anywhere you want it outside the van. That is for me the biggest advantage!

I heard there is a 2 kilowatt and 5 kilowatt model. Does the smaller 2 kilowatt draw less electricity? Does this mean an auxiliary battery is required regardless of model?
@simplycampervanconversions2 ай бұрын
You’ll need an auxiliary battery regardless, I’d never run it direct from the vehicle battery just in case you make it flat over night and can’t drive the following morning.
