It's good to have things all set up neat and tidy like that.

Thank you will now be putting lights in the back and outside on the roof rack already have them. Amazing what you find when you go searching for something and find Santas sack. Cheers Robert

Robert, have you looked at the iTech Lithium Batteries. When I changed all my house charging system in the motorhome the intent was to eventually move to iTechs when the original AGM’s gave out.

Still going strong at this stage though.

Hi Derek would be nice but price is still stretching me at this time.
Just had a read of the specs and certainly not a set and forget like a AGM battery. Cheers Robert

Bought myself a new 160w solar panel for the ute, the old flexible 100w was 4.5 years old and became brittle from exposure. Have gone back to a solid one, a few kilos heavier but believe it will last longer.

Todays effort still have to attach a Anderson plug and fix the line to the battery. Rest of the gear should be here by next weekend.

Very neat. What are the brackets you have used to attach it? Not seen those before.

Hi Robert
That looks pretty cool. But will it keep the car cooler ?
