These videos are great! Keep us posted on that tilt for the solar panel. I’d love to have one of those 👌 // Bellecamper

Cheers. There's a couple of vids up now on the righthand side of my home page now for the solar panel tilters: www.campervanman.co.uk/

Well done Tim!! Can't wait to see Walt now in flesh.

Looks very involved :-)

Hi Tim, I can see you have used a durite split charger. I've read quite a lot on these when set up with solar. The point being that if the solar array is charging the leisure batteries and they are above 13.3 volts then that would also trigger the split charge and as such the leisure batteries and the starter battery would be connected as one is lower than the other. My understanding is that they are bi directional. Have you found this to be the case with your set up?
