    We struggle in Cheshire to find any Swift Dealers who provide quality genuine after care so I think I’ll be checking Broad Lane out. Just wondered why there was a truma service engineer fitting it and not one of the Dealers engineers. Is it standard practice to just use truma mobile fitters?

    Hi guys.
    We have the same air con in our swift.
    I’m in talking with my engineer who is top notch but even the best jackery will not power these off grid as you need 18 kw. And the biggest output on the jackery is 15kw.
    He has mentioned the lpg generator that will do 22kw but they are bulky and I will need to plug air con in to it?
    What are yous doing about using yours off grid.
    Thanks guys !!!!
