Thanks to the advice from various forum members including @Dellmassive and @roadtripper, over winter we updated our failing lead acid leisure batttery to a Fogstar LiFeP04 105ah battery with a Victron charger. Our original Yuasa battery only lasted 2.5 years despite not going below 50% soc...

After a lengthy battery diagnosis thread Newbie battery charger questions, this is a new thread to discuss the swap I decided to do - not without some big doubts about my skills. So I am looking to replace my Yuasa L36-100 lead acid with a Fogstar Drift Lifepo4 105ah. You can see the...

Hi Everyone, I've totally destroyed my 2 leisure batteries due to very, very little use of the van over the winter months. I've bought another 2 today but want to know the best way of protecting these going forward, when the van isn't being used for long periods, and when the freezing...

So, got Solar panels install as part of our conversion, now completed and the panels are wired to the MPPT through to battery setup etc, feeding Leisure Battery and through some other wizardry it also tops up the Van main battery etc. I have just got myself one of those Power Generators/Solar...

Hi When I installed my leisure battery I fitted a CTEK D250SE which works perfectly. But now I want to also install an electric hook up, I am okay with getting the mains power in to the van but am unsure how to set this up to keep my leisure battery topped up. My questions are these, is there a...

Gday from down under Does anyone know if a faulty aux battery relay from factory would cause the battery light illuminate on the dash. When it does do this I can hear the relay tick as the light comes on. After starting the van, about 30 seconds later the battery light comes on which as a...

This is my current set up in my 2018 Caravelle, a mess of wires of a Factory specced Eberspacher Auxiliary air heater and 2nd battery, plus a few extras fitted by the previous owner, all under the passenger seat: This is the wiring diagram as it sits: I've got the standard split charge...

Hi all I have a Roamer 120ah lithium battery installed under the drivers seat with two charging options - the first is a Victron charger connected to my mains hookup, and the second is the ABSO 50ah DC-DC charger connected to a solar panel and the starter battery. The Victron charger works...

Hello Although iv read so many posts on all the leisure electrics set ups, my mind has “frozen” trying to work out what gear I need to order. So far, I’ve chosen a Roamer 160ah lithium battery,, to be fitted under passenger swivel. Hopefully some other Victron kit can fit in with this battery...

Hi, I am sorry if this is a daft question and I have done a forum search to see if it's been answered before but I couldn't find anything that answers my (probably daft) question. I have had a T6 Camper for 3 years and the leisure battery is basically totally dead now and not holding a charge...

I’m getting lost on the internet and reading this forum to begging to order what I need to do a leisure battery install. I’m confident doing the work and can read drawings etc just need to understand what components I need to order. Van is just a partial conversion/day van so likely just a small...

I am getting a reading of 15.3v on my leisure battery when plugged in to charge. Is this normal or is there an error?

Looking to have a night heater fitted, I see it's advisable to power via a leisure battery which I don't have, for the same price as a leisure battery fitment I could buy a portable power bank which gives me a few more options. My question is would this be OK for my needs for the odd overnight...

I’ve only recently bought a Transporter and am now considering the power side of things. I like the look of portable power packs and am wondering if these can be a true leisure battery replacement. Onboard they seem to have many options with regards to outputs, 12V DC, 230V AC and USB A/C. I’ll...

Hi Folk, I’ll shortly be heading down the leisure battery route, to enable diesel heater, lights and additional rear sockets etc. I see most people mount the battery under the drivers seat. Is there a main reason for this? We’ve got a captain seat up front, and I’m looking at the possible...

Question for the gurus. Just done an order with renology, for a t6.1 2020 van. Got a 200 w solar panel with rover 20amp along with Bluetooth module. Before I start assembly, just wondering should I have gone for a renogy dcc30s dcdc with mppt rather than my rover charger? As far as I know I...

Hi, I am looking to convert LWB T6 and I want to stick a small leisure battery under the passenger seat. (under one seat is already a sub from THQ) This is only for some LED lighting and some USB charger points. I would be grateful to hear what exactly I need to run this. Wanting to be able...
