New Crusader - From Disappointment to Off-Grid Bliss: Transforming Inadequate Caravan Power Setup!

[@davideddy2321]

Thanks for the tip was looking at crusader now will ask a lot of hard questions

[@outechoffgrid]

You're welcome. It is best practice to thoroughly research the van before purchasing it, and as you say, ask loads of questions, and thoroughly check it over to ensure satisfaction of the quality.

Good video explaining the setup and replacement aircon. Is any consideration given to the change in weight of the van. I understand things are taken out and new items put in but adding all that solar must make a difference to the ATM

[@outechoffgrid]

Hi thanks for commenting. Yes. Definitely a consideration to additional weight is taken. We always discuss the added weight if that in fact is the case. This one definitely added additional weight with both a larger battery and more solar. But these guys have plenty of payload to play with so we’re comfortable with the additions.

Looks like many Crusader Caravans are not wired correctly & they knew all about the wiring problem and dealing with Crusader & their selling & maintenance company have no idea how to rectify this wiring problem..

Hi and thanks for commenting. Unfortunately the caravan industry is filled with inexperience. As we always say, take the bare bones from the caravan manufacturer and get a decent system out in post delivery.

Can you disabled the bm pro charger?

[@outechoffgrid]

Hi and thanks for commenting. No it can’t be disabled. It can be bypassed though. Cheers.

By taking all charging functionality away from it 👍
