Hey guys, haven't posted for a while as the van has been going great sitting in the driveway here in metro Melbourne.
Anyway, my battery has finally died in the van so I upgraded to a 200ah lithium in the car and I'll be transferring the 2 x 105ah Full River AGM's out of the car and putting them in the caravan. All I'll be running is LED lights, 12v charging points and the diesel heater occasionally if off grid camping.
Van is a 2014 17.56.1 OB Expanda.
Question: is the stock solar controller sufficient or should I upgrade to something like a Victron? At this stage I don't plan on upgrading the solar on the roof but I do have portable panels I'd like to use in conjunction with the roof panel. Anyone been down this road before?
