  1. I've got a Sterling 600w and an unbranded type of 3k from China....so really one too many inverters and a thousand watts behind!
  2. Good Morning All. Have I imagined that this has been discussed at length and is relatively easy to undertake? Can anyone help me locating kit to do this? Forgive me if I've missed a thread somewhere. Many thanks.
  3. Catweasel, I really enjoyed reading your blog. Thanks
  4. I do take a 20 litre Jerry Can when I travel just in case of emergencies. Otherwise I'd store it in your tank.
  5. Shut it Peter Boat....! ...and I was planning you'd be fitting it anyways! x
  6. Thanks Catweasel....appreciated.
  7. I'm tempted to give it a go, or certainly make some more enquiries. Sounds like a device of wonder to me so far. Can if be fitted in situ, whilst I'm floating in the glory of the Sheffield Navigation?
  8. Wow....so this would mean no stern grease, packing...etc...? But the 30 knots, bit?
  9. I'm with Sea Dog...I know they are little bit expensive, but they are excellent. We use our's all the time, music, TV, Ipads, Phones etc....and don't forget it's got a USB charger with it too, meaning you can also use it to charge up other devices phones etc... Treat yourself...
  10. Can't recommend this enough: http://www.richersounds.com/product/wireless-docks,-speakers-and-portables/cambridge-audio/minx-air-100/camb-air100-blk
  11. Give Better Bathrooms a go.....here: http://www.betterbathrooms.com/shower-enclosures/ Worked a treat for me.
  12. I also have had a Victron burst into flames
  13. Pleasure John.....I'll be sure to report how long we managed to eeek out of this battery. Even if it gives us say an extra 2 months, then at least you have the time to save the money up and shop around. I was sceptical....but in this instance he's a right. I'd be interested in hearing from anyone else whose tried this...
  14. Hello.....so after 2 weeks cruising to Nottingham no starter battery problems at all. Constantly showing 14v. So the conclusion is this.....IT WORKS. Thanks Peter Boat! (PS. I'll pay for the diesel when I get paid - forgive me! x)
  15. They charge up with a 12v adaptor thing....save up and treat yourself
  16. I use x2 Cambridge Go's...they are FANTASTIC. I split left and right to get stereo and use it for the TV and Ipad. I can't recommend this bit of kit enough and the new ones even charge your device for you.
  17. So guys, Peter's modified battery has been on my boat since last week. This weekend we went out for a little trip...it worked perfectly and is still holding a good charge. So in conclusion so far it works fantastically. The end.
  18. Peter, I have no intention of telling Simon...he doesn't need the extra worry. Battery now installed, holding charge....I will make a full report after we've "Rented the Trent"....please stay tuned.
  19. Hang on Peter, let's not be too hasty here! I've just realised this is MY boat that you intend to install your experimental batteries....! As you know very well I not new to experimenting myself, but is this safe?....Why don't we just switch your battery bank onto A Little Further and then we can see....thoughts....? (also, Peter your clearly bonkers) All the best Richard.
  20. Hi Bimble...I'm confident you can help us all with solar questions....I personally sent you an email this morning (Richard)
  21. ...is all this code . Are you planning to annex the Canal de Midi...
