    #waffelonawednesday, Hi Mel, love the channel, great and informative as well as adventurous.
    My question is, What AWG size cable would you recommend for leasure battery extension?

    • @BigVanSmallWorld
      @BigVanSmallWorld  Рік тому

      No idea as it depends on what you’re going to draw google wire size chart and you will see lots of different charts that will help you 👍

    Mel, sorry to do this to you but I need your advice.
    A customer has a solar electric gate set up. There are two brand new Yuasa cyclic batteries in series for 24volts, a domestic size solar panel outputting circa 75 volts.
    There is a charge controller with no output and appears to be knackered.
    It is a very simple set up, just opening a gate once a day.
    Can you recommend a suitable charge controller? The ones I can see are too complicated with Bluetooth etc. I just need to make sure I don't cook the batteries.
    I've been watching your channel since the beginning and weirdly I feel I know you well enough to ask an off subject question!
    Best wishes to you both,
    Richard.

    Hiya, just seen a video of Andy and Sophie where you had the flares, can you please clarify why you wouldn't use the bubble to insulate and vapour barrier please, can't find if you did a video of yours doing the insulation. 😊

    Another great video Mel, looks proper cold over there at the mo. Last year you hinted at some different content and kept us guessing, did that progress? I assumed you was going to follow other channels in doing van tours UK style...maybe it was Becky's van conversion or something completely different..Glad you are not following suit and doing the booby click bait for your uploads too, no offense, I wouldn't want to be a contender for troll of the week.

      What have you got against boobs? If you don’t want to see boobs than stay off the internet or stop watching TV or even the London Underground boobs are used for advertising products exponential if I had them I’d use them

    Hello, I'd like to book a space to fit out a van ,, Could you tell me how to get in touch with the owner of the units. I live in an apartment and so I don't have an area to park and work on the van. It would also be great to have the opportunity to work alongside other people fitting out campervans . I would be extremely grateful if you could provide me with this information. Thank you, William
