WHY DOESN'T IT WORK?! Neat Install, Quality Kit ...BUT 🤯
Вставка

- BEFORE you upgrade the 12v and 240v power system in your caravan watch this video.
Your caravan power system doesn't work as well as you expect. Runs out of battery quickly and trips out. Sound familiar??
In this video you'll see a classic example of a NEAT INSTALL, QUALITY KIT BUT..... fails to perform.
Why?
Because it was installed by two different installers who have no idea of what they're doing when it comes to designing and wiring off-grid power systems.
🤯 The owner of this caravan asked me to run my eyes over the 12 volt and 240 volt power set. The 12v system was installed by a general 'auto sparky' and a general electrician installed the 240v...
AND check out what was found...
Current being drawn from inverter with nothing turned on in the van.
Inverter tripping under load.
This video is all about:
👉Why is my system overloaded.
👉Why are my batteries running flat when 'nothing' is switched on.
👉What incorrect battery cabling looks like in an off-grid 12v installation.
👉What happens when incorrect paralleling of lithium batteries.
👉Why an inverter needs to be installed CORRECTLY.
👉Why you need to get the RIGHT PEOPLE to do the JOB.
😳The INFINITE LOOP, Dan explains what it means and the effect on running 240v appliances in your caravan.
Moral of the story...take your time to find the right person to install your off-grid system!

Lol😂 38 amps to charge itself! Hahaaa thats too funny. Can see olmate biting his tongue hard. He would have loved to unleash on the fools that did the install
thats a great explanation on this system well done and would like to know how you are going to get the 12v feed to your carafan as i am assuming this is a retreat van cheers Dan
Thanks. Glad it was informative.
We have picked up a spare circuit breaker in the overhead cupboard and fed it from there. 👍
Nice Video and explanations. Would have been nice what 'after' looked like, doing it the correct way.
🤙

Interested to know what current the new Harrier pulls compared to the Ibis 👍
Current draw between the 2 is approximately the same. However, the Harrier is more efficient so overall KWh used is less.
Good to know . The soft start would be a whole lot nicer too I would imagine
Definitely a lot nicer on the inverter plus the ability to select night mode allows for much less overall consumption.
How do I check to make sure this isn’t happening to my system….
Great video bud, so I was told by the person who installed mine just to unplug the 240 charger while using the inverter, but I’ve noticed while on the inverter I have no solar input whether the 240 charge is unplugged or plugged in any idea why this would be? Cheers.
Hi mate. That definitely doesn’t sound right. I would suggest getting it inspected by someone who knows what they are doing. It doesn’t sound like the installer you had do the work was across the requirements.
