I don't know if you have sufficient cabling but I see the controller has. dual outputs....I would certainly wire up the cab battery as well as the leisure battery to ensure it stays well charged when parked on the drive for any length of time.
all this stuff you're adding.....weighed the van recently? lol, only kidding, nice work.

I bid on those. I've actually got Fiamma ones  made of the quilted interior screen material but those looked neater.

Whoops, but I don't feel too bad as you already had a pair.
The tracer 1210a only charges one battery but does have a load output so I could connect a second charger to that. 
This shows it better. The panel goes behind the driver's seat and the remote meter will go next to the microwave.

The switches are for the USB charger and a 500w inverter, the panel is aluminium ( to save weight :-) ).

My Fiamma ones are the same as those quilted ones, only mine cost £35 and were new from a Fiamma agent on eBay.

J and P, perhaps a batrery master then to move 'spare' charge to the cab battery...
I've seen so many threads on here with flat cab batteries due to poor  'smart' charging, I'd bypass it altogether....

We did consider a battery master but they are almost the same cost of the whole system,we may add one at a later date.
 I looked at dual chargers but fancied trying a mppt charger as they cope with shade better.   
We tend to move every few days  power has not been a problem so far, this is just an experiment.

Hi jennyandpeter
I know you posted this quite sometime ago but do you still have the info on the ACCURIDE push to release runners with aluminium mounts that you used for the shelf under the wardrobe. Do you know if they are 75% or 100% extension. Also where did you get yours from?

Regards
Paul

I made up the mounts from ali angle I can measure them tomorrow 
Amazon sell them now

They are the 100% ones 

Lucky bit was finding a sample at a building supplies that matches the worktop.

Well worth doing as we put drinks and a speaker on it.

The valves are not easy to get to but got there in the end

Tires need matching pressures but leaving it for a while to see if there are nay changes.

Snap! But they are no good for my Prius with low profile tyres. See the dedicated Tyrepal offer thread.

I have not fitted it yet will do once it is warmer. I have this kit as the panel is the right size for the space I have.

What a bargain. Fitted my 100w SP a few years ago, though it was not the flexible type. IanH produced a detailed report with pics on this forum on how he fixed his flexible SP, plus wiring etc, to his MH. You might find some of the details useful.

Thanks I had seen that before, I will be doing slightly different as I will fix a acrylic sheet to the roof that will have captive nuts so I can replace the panel if needed.

Just purchased a memo van swing from another forum member and will be fitting soon, I did not know such a thing existed but looks perfect for what we want. More to follow.

Perfect for the netherlands, but can it be inverted so that it doesn't swing your bikes into the passing traffic when used in the UK?
