    I was buying the new AC240 today. But after taking with their customer service. There is no DO50s DC enhancer to this yet and they have no idea when / if it will come out and they said that the one fore the 200 Max will not work on it. So I just brought the 200 Mac unit instead. And the cable for the Lead Acid battery clamps onto the LA battery and plugs in to charge the Bluetti with.

    • @BigVanSmallWorld
      @BigVanSmallWorld  Před 3 měsíci

      Yeah I’m using the AC200max with 3 DO50 charging all 3 batteries thanks for giving me the heads up on this really appreciated as I will be making a follow up video soon so well worth me mentioning that in the video 👍🤓👍

      @@BigVanSmallWorld Has a subscriber. I'll be here waiting for it. I would have liked to have brought the AC240. The unit is a big upgrade from the Max. But I hope it won't be like the 200L where they don't bring out cables to use for it. I didn't want to take any chances. The 200 Max is a proven working work horse. So I ordered all the different cable for it to. The only thing next is to go back into your videos and fix the EV cable for it. Thanks Mel.

      If you mean the 30amp 12v cable it’s out of stock I myself have only just found out about this but I’ve had a look and it looks pretty simple to make your own cable as it’s only a 2 pin connection I’m going to give it a bash tomorrow morning 👍

    How did you fix the battens to the roof, and what was the insulation that you used? Did you put the insulation between the battens or put the battens over the top? I may have missed a video.

  • @SJHughes
    @SJHughes Před 3 měsíci

    When you did the fan you used a left handed screwdriver with right hand screws.
    I also think your not using your skirting board ladder correctly and don't get me started when your doing electrics, not having a bucket of sparks at hand just in case.
