  12. Hi All I hope someone can help/confirm (or rip apart) my thinking here...... I'm finally upgrading my TV/Streaming box on the boat, mainly to get better sound using a Roku Soundbar. I've gone for devices that have 12v DC inputs but come with 240v mains adapters to make things as simple as possible. I'd like these to run off 12V rather than 240v. The TV (monitor) is 12v 4A 18w requirements The Roku is 12v 5A 60w requirements I'm thinking getting a 8-40V to 12V 10A DC Voltage Stabilizer 120W which I'm thinking supplies enough juice to power both the above, so 12V input from the boat and both the above connecting on the output.... is this wise/sensible/possible! the item is 8-40V to 12V 10A DC Voltage Stabilizer Car Power Supply Regulator Waterproof JP | eBay any flaws in my plans???!! rob
  13. Never had an issue with glare... but i have lots of solar panels on the roof!
  14. When i repainted our roof i noticed a difference. it was a matt green and painted it with a green 'gloss' finish - the boat is now much cooler.
  15. You don't intend to live on the boat so its leisure only? Thats quite an expense for something you haven't thought about in the past unless you've been mulling it over but frustrated by the lack of close mooring? Loads of single ladies on the cut....
  16. there are 4 positive connectors from the positive daiychain so ample to go back to the bussbar to avoid overloading (top and bottom of each switch run)
  17. the good thing is he'll etch the board for you and you can purchase spare switches/breakers etc.... i like this panel as there are no illuminated lights (its in the bedroom)....
