Re: Do you actually use your tap?
LOL i can't believe this is still going, I expected a couple of posts. I think I'll put mine back in, get a lighter thing and not eat too much meat for fearing of staining aluminium

Re: Do you actually use your tap?
I do and have used my tap/sink when it works!! I replaced the tap a while back as it wasn't working. It worked again for a while and now it isn't - any ideas if it uses a lot of/more power than the 12v lights (which are working)? as I am flummoxed now. Wondering if my leisure battery has seen better days.
So, in answer to the question. If the tap were working then I would use it but usually only for tooth brushing and hand washing and occasional filling of the kettle if I have no bottled water ...

They don't use very much power at all - about the same as a 12v flourescent tube. Switch is the obvious suspect. The switch in our tap died, we fitted a new tap, the switch has died again already.

Re: Do you actually use your tap?
Our shop sell pump controllers that sense a pumps current draw when the water flow is interrupted and turns off the pump should it rise above the set psi.
This can be set from 0 to 99 psi
the controller is 12v
features
digital display batt & aux batt voltage
pump speed control
dead end control
on off function
on constant ( no draw )
they cost a bit though about £80
but no need for a tap switch!

Re: Do you actually use your tap?
shure-flo pump pressurizes the system then the tap(smev) is progressive so either a trickle or full, i have an isolating switch for the pump.
