Solar Panels ....again
(Preview)
Well, electrics are not my long suit. Thing is I can get a good price on a 200watt 24v mono panel. Question is; if I use this panel do I need a 24v battery coupled with a step down 24v to 12v invertor or can a couple of 12v batteries be wired (how?) to achieve a 12volt output. Or would I be better off to use a 12v...

Compliance Plate and Rego sticker query
(Preview)
My van's compliance plate states Tare 2180 and ATM 2580. I assume this allows me to add 400 kg of gear, water, gas, etc into my van for a total weight up to 2580. Am I correct in my thinking? Compliance plate also states GTM rating 2370. What is the significance of this measurement? Also I wonder why m...

Charging IPad

We have thought about buying a 12v charger for the IPad. We currently use an inverter for charging it in the motorhome. Does anyone know which method uses more power from the battery? Or are they both about the same?
