My heater pads are lost in the post but as soon as they arrive I will install. Edinburgh is getting close to the 5c I have set for my cutoff so be interested to see. One fitted I will re-insulate my battery and let you know...

@mikefitz, all done working great, thank you so much could not have done it without you. Stirling B2B works great, just wish I can trickle charge the van as the battery always shows low on the PC180.. Noticed the new Stirling b2b's support vehicle charging...

@DJSmiley thank you for your input, we do intend on using the van this winter if possible (but this will be the first time). I have my temp sensors between the 2 outside cells, which have 6mm poron between them compressed to 3mm. Right now our solar is only managing a few amps although our B2B...

Your English is very good. What charge under temp will you use in reality. Overkill Solar recommend -1c but I was thinking of a little higher as my 15w heaters will take a little time to soak, but don't want the heaters cutting in too often. I also want to add some insulation as my cells just...

Thanks DJSmiley, you got there before me and explained so much better than I could.

Yep that's the same BMS as mine. Let me know how you get on. Getting colder here in Edinburgh and while the van is parked up its starting to get colder. Cells were at 11deg C this morning which is same as ambient. No protection disables yet, left the fridge on for the last week but with all the...

Can you provide the PN there are 2 versions, when I am not on my phone I will write more.. Mine came by default with discharge disabled, just had to toggle in the app. For my version of the 200A BMS it should apparently turn on when the low temp is breached but I have not tested this yet, got...

Hi, It was in a PM on Alibaba from JBD, I think we all need to be careful here as there are 2 models. The one with the plugs and the ones with the h- screw terminal that I have. I will go with 2 15w silicon foils for £5 each...

J8 heater can handle up to 8A so plenty of scope for heater...

BTW the previous manual I posted is Not the correct one for the model below. I have attached the correct one.

Systems build complete and running for over a week of travel. Not much sun in Scotland just now but B2B doing a great job of topping up. Runs my 3kw/6kw inverter no problem for microwave and water heater and induction plate plus other 12v loads. Fiddly to mount. Need to install the heat pads...

Hi, how did you connect you heat pads and how did you mount the BMS? I have the same. And with no mounting holes and wanting to use 70mm2 cables I am struggling... Any advise would be appreciated...

@Punx_Afloat, my cells have arrived and my BMS is due tomorrow. How will you attach the cells to the BMS lugs?

Documentation is above..

Do you have any more details on this and your build?
