  2. Battery down

    Test today seems to confirm it's holding charge. On mains 13.17. Unplugged for 1 hour it read 12.6.Plugged back in it slowly rose back to 13 +. My conclusion is a dodgy connection on the fuse. The act of removal and refitting seems to have made all the difference
  3. Battery down

    Update. Checked all fuses yesterday. All OK but it began to charge again. I assume a poor connection through cold or damp. Next job will be to see if it holds the charge.
  4. Battery down

    Did not realise cold weather has such a impact on holding charge
  5. Run or stay

    I think as it's been 3 months so far might wait for some sort of relaxation of lockdown 3/4 weeks maybe.
  6. Battery down

    All fuses OK. Pics of battery & volt meter
  7. Battery down

    Off to Halfords today then.
  8. Run or stay

    To start or not to start, that is the question. Last winter I ran the van half hour stationary and sometimes on the road up to temperature each month. This question was raised by a forum member and I decided to follow advise he received for this winter. That is to better leave engine standing...
  9. Battery down

    Just checked ignition. Red warning battery/alternator. Then all lights started flickering on & off. Flat battery for sure. Have received some advice to use the jump start probe under the bonnet to connect charger and clip negative to body. Have jumped this van like that before. Would save...

  11. Battery down

    It's a 2014 Hymer Starline. I don't suppose the electric windscreen blind opened and closed each day takes its power from the engine battery? Anyway it should still charge enough to cover that.
  12. Battery down

    Another problem. On mains since Sept but our Hymer engine battery shows flat on the control panel though its supposed to receive a charge from mains. I have not started the engine since Sept on advice its better not to protect exhaust system as can not drive it anywhere to get high enough...

    Thanks
  14. Dometic clicking

    Using the Dometic fridge 24/7 on mains. Sometimes we hear a rapid clicking noise. After a short while it stops then a little later begins again. After a number of times it stops for good untill a few days pass. So far everything working ok but thinking I might need to get a engineer out. Anyone...
  15. All electric motorhomes.... Possible or not?

    On radio a presenter explained the more expensive EV is not a issue for 70% of purchasers. This is because they sign up for a contract that means they don't buy the car and trade in every 3 or 4 years and continue payments. He gave example of a model ( I can't remember) that petrol or EV are the...
  16. Future value of your motorhome.

    Thanks everyone for a interesting read this morning on your reply posts from the various forums on which I posted the debate opening question. After working through the opinions on me personally for bringing up the subject there are some with helpfull and interesting viewpoints on the future...
  17. Future value of your motorhome.

    Anyone put any thought in to the future value of their diesel motorhome as the day approaches to have all electric on to the roads. If we speculate that as leisure vehicles they may have a shelf life of 15 years to the government's target of 2035 then there must come a time when prospective...
  18. 24 hrs elec used

    I should explain that using 240v is unusuall for us untill winter arrives. We have 300w solar and lithium for the invertor and lpg. However the Alde 6kw gas heating can be used on electric at 3kw which drops automatically when the load to van exceeds 16 amp such as kettle use.The night and day...
  19. 24 hrs elec used

    How much do you use in 24 hrs? Arrived at cl site with metered electric. Interesting I thought as never looked in to consumption before. Put 14 kw on meter . After 18 hrs it ran out. So it seems we consume about 18/19 kw in 24hrs. On this site at. 27 pence that's about £5.00 per day?
