Solar Panels

I've noticed a few people on site with solar panels in the window when not on a hook up, do they actually do any good I realise they are not gonna power much but do they keep your leisure battery topped up enough to power the basics? Ive been looking at Maplin and see that the big difference is the ...

As I cant turn the key and check the spark at the same time I resorted to phoning a mate who knows what he's doing and will come give me a hand when he finishes work.

Will post more after he's been, and probably shame myself somemore with my mechanical ignorance.

Non Starter

Haven't used the van for a couple of weeks, and she's a non starter, took the battery off and charged it, and put an extra can of petrol in just in case but still no luck. Turn the ignition on and everything lights up as normal, turn the key and you can hear the starter turning away but that's all w...

recommend an awning

Thinking of ordering one of the Spacemaker Tunnel Awnings from just kampers £250 with a free table and chairs.

Anyone know if these are any good or do you have any recommendations.

Just out of interest the difference between the 3 you posted seems to be the amperage (apart from the housing on the £100 one) what difference will a higher amperage make when charging a single leisure battery?

Cheers Dave,

I don't "want" to spend £100 but if its the right bit of kit for the job then will have to, unless of course anyone has any alternatives?
