Tomo3090 Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Hi Tony, I don't know if you're considering getting one or not, but we looked at them 18 months ago and when I contacted LeisurePower they suggested I get 2X85 Watt flat panels instead. It gives the same output, or as near as, and is/was £1,100 quid cheaper. We did as suggested and have never once, apart from when the panels were covered in snow last Winter, needed to hook up. We've got 2 Elecsol 110 Amp batteries, most of the stuff on the van is 12 volt. i.e telly, sky box, lighting and water pumps. We can also run our inverter, 2000 Watt, for Ann to dry her hair, charge up the lap top, my electric toothbrush and a Kindle from the batteries, (not all at the same time obviously!) and we've camped everywhere from the Western Isles, (March/April 2010) to Morocco, (March 2011) and all stations in between, in every season, since getting them and never come close to losing battery power.
