Started looking at the van electrics over the weekend plus I could stay clean (er) for visitors / other allocated jobs!
Checked & fired up the 75KG HP UPS I bought earlier this year 5400KWh with a full charge.
Battery circuit breaker was damaged during collection / storage in the garage but managed to turn it back on (the replacement CB was £65-£165!
Bought this off of flea bay for £12 (?) to play with solar control, voltage monitoring etc...
I don't want cupboards or rock and roll beds in the red van as it's my daily run around so it needs to be flexible. So I butchered an old pelicase to fit a 12vdc charge input, a 240v charge input, 2 external USB ports, 5 input feeds from my 5 x solar 20W panels from RS Components. The case will store the cabling plus 2x 12vdc lithium-ion aircraft batteries, the controller and the cabling. Got some other external connections coming but fitted a few coax connectors for GPS, WiFi, TV etc... The idea is to make it completely portable or plug-in off the van or mains.
