Will continue to put it to the test, and we can likely see how much power it uses too. Will keep you posted.

Ah brilliant. Yes the regatta sounds hectic! Do like the sound of the illuminated boat parade though. Sounds a bit more chilled out.

Great question. Others we know tend to either put them under then van, venting the exhaust away. Or under cover - the hose we have currently doesn’t allow for that so we’ve some thinking to do. The case is weather resistant (not waterproof) but I’d not leave it in the open rain that’s for sure.

Thank you mate. Very much appreciated 😊

Unsure how it does have a CE rating with the setup here - I am no compliance expert but it didn’t look right to me. But it is marked on the case 🤔. It worked fine with the transformer, but the main consideration is you could plug a ‘kettle’ lead into it. Plus no fuse. Not good - which is a shame really as the concept and setup otherwise has potential. I think the Sunster unit has a similar setup, keen to get eyes on that.

Other countries using the CE mark system don’t have fuses. The fuse might prevent a fire, best to have protection from rcbo than fuse

Using the c14 for 12 dc is definitely non compliant

Hey. The box is CE marked yes, so I am right it should have a fused plug? It is fused inside for the 12v part, but stick to my thoughts it should have a fused plug for sure. The exhaust is close, and it touched the raised part of my table: which would be bad. I definitely should say that somehow the box doesn’t get hot and there is a gap below the exhaust - albeit small. I guess a small air gap provides more insulation that I’d first thought. Like a madman I touched the box right next to the exhaust to check this. But as I said I wouldn’t rest this on something plastic. For me the legs should be an inch longer or so to be safer.

Thanks so much. You too 😊

Thanks for watching matey. Appreciate it.

Heat wise I should have mentioned it seemed okay. The box itself wasn’t hot at all. But on the flow side it’s one for a long term test I reckon.

No problem at all. Thanks for watching 😊

This is a good point. When we get a hot spell I’ll see what my RuuviTags show in terms of humidity. This is why you hear people say, ‘yeah but it’s a dry heat’. When on holiday. Great point.

Ah of course. It was this ebay.us/HIlqOy

@@WanderbusAdventures sweet thank you. And just to be sure, the longer bits it's going from the top of the tank and the little one on the tank right ? And why did you used the thread black thingy ? You have twist the both piece together in between the thank isn't it ? Thank you.

Hey. So not sure if it can do a long press. However ours is ‘longer’ on the controller than any other thing in our bus so there’s hope. When you ‘learn’ the buttons at the bottom there’ll be something that allows you to check the frequency. Make sure you do that as ours wasn’t 433hz - it was slightly different. After that you can add each button and it’ll remember the frequency. Hope this works for you.

@WanderbusAdventures hey, thanks for the reply. I'll keep trying 🙂

Thank you very much

Thank you, it's the Eco Maxi Body. I bought two this time, and you will need some fittings for your pipe (ours are 12mm push fit)

Lol. Yes thanks to our visit this has become a thing now 😂. 1….. 2…. 😂

@WanderbusAdventures 😂😂

You’re spot on. It’s very well to do! Shower is working fine Stu 😜. Take care mate. Have a great week

Oh wow. Just googled this and now want to visit next time we are up that way. We’ve got the helicopter museum in Weston, but AV8 looks amazing!

Ze waren zo lekker. Niet goed voor het figuur :-)

She’s like Hawkeye for those little waypoint markers. Saved our bacon for sure 😊

It’ll be clean for a matter of minutes 😂

Definitely! It’s a lovely relaxed place but lots to see too.

Ah amazing. We’ve had some great finds clothes wise too. It’s brilliant when you find a bargain.

Ha, easily distracted we are 😆. You guys would love it, plenty of walks for the dog too. We may very well go back over winter to another stop as it’s an easy drive up for us like you say. Hope you guys are doing well, Cornwall looked lovely.

Brilliant. Sounds like a great project. Will you be putting a box on the back? Glad the rust isn’t as bad too! The scuttle is available directly from Mercedes. You need to find a commercial dealership and they’ll be able to get one for you. At the time it was pretty reasonable - we use Rygor commercials if you happen to be local to them. They even deliver to us, which we find amazing.

@WanderbusAdventures Yes I'll be putting a box back on, hopefully building my own expedition style if I get better at the welding! You've done a great job on yours I must say 👏 I'll have a look at who is my local Merc dealer, really appreciate the advice, cheers

Interesting. Will check that out as would be neater for sure. Also since install have made a couple of small changes and have some other ideas: - have made a cover for when not in use to keep road dirt from getting inside - considering a quick disconnect for when not in use, so the cable is not stressed. Seems sensible for winter months - but thinking in that. Thanks for the tip. Love to improve things.

Hey, no we stayed at Camping Le Moulin De Caudon which does look very similar.

Nice to meet you Keith - it was nice to visit your namesake :-)

No problem. Thanks so much.

The price of half term we reckon. Fully serviced seems to be way less this week.

Sounds lovely, definitely a good one to pick for any time - a great first site by any standards.

You’re naturals on camera. We loved our stay and will definitely borrow those good boys again x

Ha, yeah he was sort of handsome in an unwieldy sort of way now mention it 😊. Thanks Stu.

Interesting point, we just think it’s rude not to. Lily does it for the girls - loves it 😊.

Probably because there is also less people from the UK at all those European sites 😂

The regatta and boat races look amazing! They do an illuminated show too, which we’d love to go and see. Maybe next year 🤔

It was quite a lot mate 😂. A chilli is a good shout. Will be prepared next time haha.

@ never enough!! Never never 😂😂

I read this in the Greatest Showman song voice.

@ Yup! My job here is done 😍😎👍🏻😂😂

Yeah they were great hosts. For now let’s stick to borrowing a dog 🐶 😂

lol. Norman wouldn’t approve

Totally agree! Now you say it we’ve not had a curry in a while 🤤

16mm2. Rated for 110amps did to the cable length.

They are thermally lined. So have a backing on the material. We didn’t add anything else, and combine these with other thermal blinds we stick in the windows.

Very very tempted 🤔

Would love a 3D printer Don. Have been watching lot of videos on them and am thinking CAD and design might be a rabbit hole to go down. We’ve quite a few ideas for van related prints too. How did you learn it?

Thanks Kev. It’s a neat bit of kit and the integration with Broadlink was a tidy bonus.
