The resurrection of Doc, bringing a 20 year old neismann Bischoff Flair back to life after 12 years off road.

Back to the fans, fans permantly on the vent new gives any problems I been fitting them permanently like that for 16 years.
Also as I bought them for Tam I bought decent quality ones as cheap ones get noisy after while. He is going to cry when he gets the bill.

I set the hysterisis on the controller to 2° so the don't keep cutting in and out.
Can't set the temperature yet u till he gets some warmer weather, ideally you want the fans cutting in when the outside temperature is about 25°.

The inside fan I used a cheaper controller that was smaller and it's not critical, I fitted the controller inside the fridge on my last van as it means you only need to get a power cable into the fridge. Put the cable through the hole the sensor wire goes through, beside the fins.
Set it to turn on at 6.5 ° & off at 5° for a starting point sounds high but those fridges don't get as cold as a domestic one and no need to have the fan running all night.

So this should answer the few folk thar said " why fit lithium if not going to use it"

Approximately a week of being sat in one place not driving and not hooked up.

And no sun.

This has just been from lights and TV, darker nights means lights are on from around 16.30 , TV from maybe 5/6pm till midnight.

Had I been running inverters with air fryers etc my batt would be flat by now.



So that's what I wanted, the peace of mind that I won't run out of power should I not move for a while. 😁

And it's gotta last me till Wednesday at least as that's when I'll be driving a few hours again really to charge it up
