Morning,
Here is another problem/question
First of all thanks so much to all the VERY helpful members who replied to our previous threads while we try to sort few problems with our new-to us Burstner T-star.
So here is the next problem, the 2005 Burstner is fitted with a reich e-box (I believe this to be the E-box 1 model).
The problem we have is when we drive with the 12V fridge on, most times when we arrive on sites and switch on the electrics via the small display we get a message saying electrics overheat and cannot use the electrics for a while (I believe until the box cools down?).
The Motorhome had a separate mains charger fitted (Sargent 3 stage mains charger), I believe by the previous owners .
We were thinking/hoping to upgrade the current battery to lithium (2 x 100AH) and fit solar panels via Victron MPPT + a Victron DC to DC charger & new Victron mains charger. Will this work with the E-Box or will it just make it overheat and possibly damage the unit ?
Is there a way we can wire all this without effecting the E-Box?
Also is there a fix for using the 12V fridge while driving without overheating the e-box?
Thank you so much in advance
