Aw - well if we are ever parked up next to you - I'll get my hubby to bring you one round in the morning. Just make sure you haven't got a sexy neggyleggy on though, as I don't think his blood pressure would handle such early morning excitement! Laughing Laughing Laughing

Update:

I have fixed the heater/hot water.

The spare part arrived, and then I managed to fit it all by myself!!!!

1. Took off the plastic surround to the control panel

2. Undid the screws of the control panel

3. Pulled the control panel out of the wall

4. Felt behind for the cables to the sensor

5. Pushed out the broken sensor

6. Purshed the cables through the hole of the broken sensor

7. Attached them to the new sensor

8. Pushed the new sensor into the hole in the wall

9. Put it all back together

And HEY PRESTO - IT WORKED!!!!!

I think it is great that you can take on the repairs yourself.

We currently have a new to us Van, and the list of jobs seems endless, but I am working through the list as best I can myself first before handing back over to the experts.

I'm all for giving business to the right people when a job is too big for oneself. But, I think that the pleasure you get from doing the work yourself, and not to mention the comfort you get in knowing what to do if it ever happens again whilst away from home is very beneficial.

WELL DONE.

First thing I've done myself, to be honest!

But I hoped it would not be too hard.

Alternative was to wait till someone was free, then drive 1.5 hours each way to get it fixed. Not very appealing.

Thank you for explaining this.

What I've got is:
* EG20 generator [url]http://www.conrad-anderson.co.uk/power/generators/generator-SelfEnergy-EG20.htm[\url] which supplies up to 20 amps current at 12 v
* 2 gel batteries - 104ah Lucas Gel deep cycle (cost me £370)

It sounds like if my generator can supply 20 amps, and my Remoska is on for an hour and uses 60 amps, then it won't keep up, so unless there is enough in the battery to start with to cover the shortfall, it will run out the battery?

Remoska maybe isn't so much of a problem if it is only on for an hour. But the electric blanket is likely to be on for much longer.


Well I ran the electric blanket yesterday for about 3 hours using the inverter, and it didn't make hardly any dent in the battery.

The heating was also running full blast, plus the TV, satellite dish and freesat.

So I'm feeling quite good about that.

Haven't tried the Remoska yet. Next time.
