I have been considering running two banks of batteries in my coach,one for 12 volt,and one for 24 volt.
I have an eberspacher that runs off 24volt a pure sine wave inverter that is 24 volts a compressor fridge that is 12/24 volt and will be fitting the webasto diesel heater setup at 24 volt.
The 12 volt side of things will be water pump currant one is 12 volt ,spark generator for the hob and some gauge readers for the lpg and the freshwater tank.Also the lights will be 12 volt as is the toilet electrics.I will also be fitting some 12 volt cigarette sockets in the bedroom and in the bench seating,these will act to keep 12 volt devices on charge as well as using some fans for cooling in hot climes.
My aim is to have 5 solor panels possibly 120 ,100 or 80 watters.
I was thinking of having 2 to charge the 12 volt system which will be 2 lead acid normal car batteries,these can also act as spare batteries for the engine and will serve both domestic and emergency starter issues,
The 24 volt side of things is mainly going to be used for heating the water and running the compresser fridge.In winter obviously the heating will be on also using more power unless of course i am in sunny spain for this setup i am thinking of using the 3 solor panels for charging plus a durite 24 volt b 2 b charger.
Obviously i am trying to be geared up for being offsite and avoiding those lovely campsites.I will be using 2 x 220 amp batteries for the 24 volt setup.
Interested on opinions please.
