    U1300L Camper

    Thanks Cragmog for the reply, I'll be contacting FGS on monday to have a chat, as i like the concept of the slide slope, pop top and the Gullwing door and as a bonus they are in QLD and not a far drive from Brisbane. The Chassis design of the Sprinter Cab, looks like a direct fix without a...

    Unimogadventures - Our build and travel thread

    It’s good to see the mog out and about, the fans will help the fridge, look for the magnetic lev fans, longer life span, less noise, and can be used with a variable voltage reducer. I have mine set down at 9 volts as 12 volts is too loud for me. i also connected up fans for the charger and...

    Victron Energy: Alternator/Solar Charging - LFP Battery System

    Shade, it might be worthwhile looking at getting an extra dc-dc to parallal to get 60amps into that battery if you are just sitting around And are planning on 12 volt hot water unit I’ve got a 30 amp Votronic Dc-dc triple charger to supply my 240ah lithium battery, and after starting to spend...

    ? - Finding a Solar Panel by Dimensions

    Battleborn, we just have to agree to disagree, I’ve had issues with 2 solid panels, warranty is hit and miss, it just depends on the manufacturer. The semi flex panel allowed a low profile fitting on my rig, and even with a small mount it was half the weight. They have there place in the...

    ? - Finding a Solar Panel by Dimensions

    I have to disagree, you get what you pay for. Most of the issues people have had is from cheap flexible panels off eBay. Solbain Panels are good, but pricey, there is also eArche that make commercial semi flex panels for the building industry, still not cheap compared to decent solid panels I...

    Nice find, and RHD for when u head home, I’m not sure about trying to fit 6 in a mog camper, it’s tight with 2 people when on decent trips, just allow some room for swags on the roof and make them sleep on the ground. Looking forwards to seeing how your build comes along, Iain’s thread...

    LiFePO4 Install

    I've only got 180 watts of solar connected to my 240ah lithium system, its amazing how quick the solar tops up the batteries. The small amount of solar works for us, as we can't stay still in one spot, the DC-DC keeps it topped up, while we explore It's funny, how i used to ensure that my AGMs...

    DIY LiFePO4 battery assembly

    Others have provided some good information It doesn't look to hard to make up a 4 cell 12 volt battery with a simple BMS, i considered making up a 300ah pack But i ended up just getting a 240 ah Lithium drop in, as it was cheaper to just get a drop in than make my own at the time. I'd...

    100AH Lithium cant handle start up draw

    I imported mine from from NZ, the warranty is with Voltronic, I had an issue with my Jupiter panel and it was fixed after I sent it to Germany at my cost. It was annoying at the time, as it took a far bit of time, but they fix any issue for up to 5 years from purchase. Even though there was an...

    100AH Lithium cant handle start up draw

    Well I personally think lithium LiFePO4 has it’s place in off grid campers, I’m seeing a 80-90 ah draw when I used the induction cooktop for coffee and cooking through the inverter. Takes as much solar as it can, while on site. It also takes stuff all time to get to 100% charge when driving to...
