(continued from a previous comment) ...so .... please just keep on with what you are doing, and your presentation is awesome. I, and I am sure so many other viewers, agree with your sentiments at the beginning. Clever Mollie. Already looking forward to your next video.
All that stress before a great weekend, I intend to double up on the battery side when our new van finally arrives. How clever is Mollie, a lady in our office Breeds and shows collies, have a great weekend. Cheers K.
Well done. In my motorhome the leisure batteries are under the passenger seat. Quite some effort to dismantle the seat to get to them. Great you made it!!
Ahhh the dreaded battery fail. Always at an inconvenient time. It’s good to know the hurdles we all have to jump to be able to go camping 😃 Clever Molly with her lobster 🦞 👍🏻 Trev
Thank you 🥰 Yes it was a panic getting there also with traffic but we're lucky it was a site relatively close to home, the new rules don't seem as customer friendly 😬
Ha ha don't worry we just used our trusted old friend, UA-cam to learn 😂👍 Hope you guys are well sorry been away for a while will catch up and we owe you a reply too xxxx
Lovely Molly so intelligent and quick to learn was there something about a battery? My nephew was showing an Irish Wolfhound at Crufts as he always does he didn't win anything this year.
Oh wow that's amazing! They are lovely dogs but perhaps a bit big for our campervan 😂👍 She does pick things up quickly, we can't take any of the credit 😂
Great hoodie & thanks for supporting. Glad you sorted the battery issue. Recommend a trickle charge system when not using the van. Saves issues & gives the vans electrical systems a longer life. Consider a timed heating system a few hours a day during winter which also helps protecting against dampness. Great channel & great couple, thanks.
Well done for getting it sorted, I've used the same company in the past and they have been great. I had my hands burned (not literally on this occasion 😃) in the past with battery failure and unfortunately it happened very early on Good Friday of an Easter weekend with friends, everything beeping, tracker alerts, the full works! I gave up on Lead-Acid type batteries after that (and that's really why I couldn't wait to swap out on the latest van to Lithium) Enjoy your weekend, all the very best, David & Rachel 👍
Thank you, they were a very good company and fast delivery! Would like to look at lithium in the future so thank you will check out your videos on it 😁👍
Enjoyed the vlog. We had a similar experience in our Autotrail 670 when I changed our battery after four years. I understood the tracker was linked to the vehicle battery, not the leisure and can be put in 'service mode' via the App when the engine is being serviced etc. Best wishes.
Hi, I enjoyed the video. I noticed your tv was on the shower wall in the same place as I'm going to be fitting my bracket. Did you have to reinforce the wall? Did you have to put bolts through into the shower? would appreciate it if you could give me some advice. Thankyou
Hi Rob, it is fixed to the wall but the bracket was already fitted at factory before we took delivery of the van sorry. It must be reinforced as it's very well mounted but our shower bathroom panels are covering it and bonded in place so I can't see behind it sorry 👍
Hello 😁 It does but during winter it's not enough power to supply both the leisure and vehicle battery so we usually plug the van in every 2 weeks in winter to top it up but went away and forgot to do it 😬
Hi Bob it does charge from the alternator but quite a few folk have advised the standard alternator doesn't generate enough charge so suggested changing it 👍
Wow how smart is molly! Super cute! Need to turn that lobster on! What to see her reaction to it flopping around!
Ha ha 😂 not sure she would be so keen if it moves, she chases RC cars around the house barking 😂 although this week she did discover it squeaks
Great video guys ❤
Thank you 🥰

Clever Mollie.
Already looking forward to your next video.
Thank you Roger, sorry for the delay in replying we have been somewhat distracted for a few weeks 😂 Back on track now though 😄

Thank you she is quick to learn, we can't take any credit 😂👍 Definitely worth a second battery if off grid too
Well done. In my motorhome the leisure batteries are under the passenger seat. Quite some effort to dismantle the seat to get to them. Great you made it!!
Thank you it was a relief after a few blue world 😂 mainly the battery box cover 😂👍

Thank you yes glad that one was sorted as off grid later this year would not have been fun 😂👍
Nice one👍. Why do things always try to catch us out.. Added bonus you didn't lose your deposit to camc for late cancellation or worse not showing up 😊
Thank you 🥰 Yes it was a panic getting there also with traffic but we're lucky it was a site relatively close to home, the new rules don't seem as customer friendly 😬
Great work on the van Iain and Caroline, however as always molly upstaged the pair of you . Well done Molly🙌
Ha ha thanks 🥰 She is now asking for a bigger part though 😂
Great work on the battery guys. I genuinely wouldn’t have a clue. Great work Molly with the Lobster 😊

Thank you that's a great idea will check out tricky chargers as the van is near our garage and charging points plus we have an outdoor one too 👍😁

Thank you will check where that is connected too, very helpful thanks 🥰👍
Yeah for Molly
She is wanting a bigger part now though 😂👍

Does the solar not keep the batteries on a constant charge? I need to check this with mine now
Hello 😁 It does but during winter it's not enough power to supply both the leisure and vehicle battery so we usually plug the van in every 2 weeks in winter to top it up but went away and forgot to do it 😬
Is solar the only way to charge your battery? I thought they could charge while you were driving with a split charging system.
Hi Bob it does charge from the alternator but quite a few folk have advised the standard alternator doesn't generate enough charge so suggested changing it 👍
The gen on your camper is a smart type and is shit,,its only lcharging when it is in downhill. And no load on the motor
Thank you didn't realise that will look at upgrading 😁👍
I use Tanya…..
Very impressed with their speed of service and delivery condition 😁👍
Tayna. First class always use them.
Really impressed with the speed of delivery and the packaging 😁👍
How many vloggers does it take to change a battery? 😂
Ha ha 😂 love that, would say only 1 but think Caroline will poke me in the eye 👀😂😂😂👍
For some people just living is a drama , leisure battery should not affect main battery.
Lithium is the only way guys and we’ll worth it
Thank you, will definitely consider that for our next upgrade, seems very positive
