Re: Some electrical draw measurements..
How did you carry out the test Lloydy? I disconnected the earth from the battery and attached my ammeter to the earth cable and earth post on battery. Let the reading settle for 30secs-60secs and then read what figure you have. You'll need a multimeter with a amp setting to do this. cheers :ok

Re: installing solar power in a westy
