    Is 11 inches too big !! Is Bigger Better?
    The Alpine Halo 11 ILX-F115D. The BEST Stereo Upgrade
    Is it worth the money? Should you buy one?
    The display is fantastic, being HD its really crisp and clear. Extremely responsive to touch and easy to navigate through.
    The sound quality is excellent, much improved over the Volkswagen standard headunit.
    With the HDMI input, I am able to play on the Playstation, watch films and stream channels such as Sky TV, Disney Plus, Netflix, CZcams and Amazon Video. I can even watch Sky Sports, perfect for Euro 2024 and the Cricket World Cup.
    Great sound for music, podcasts, audiobooks. Big screen for sat nav. See where you are going clearly on Waze, Apple maps, Google Maps, Co-pilot, TomTom or pay for your parking with Ringo or JustPark.

    Whether you have a T5, VW T5.1, T6, T6.1 or even an older T2, T2.5, T4, the VW Vanlife scene is amazing, with so much help and assistance available for whatever project you wish to attempt. Panel van, Kombi, Converted Camper or VW California Beach or Ocean, enjoy the freedom van life brings.
    The @Staycation Lifestyle van conversion is coming along.
    I bought a VW Transporter T6 Kombi Highline van 140bhp diesel SWB with tailgate.
    I have lots more to do though, I have a new electrical system, using Victron components and a Lithium LIFEPO4 battery, so I obviously need to install some power devices. I have a new sound system, with Focal speakers and ibus 2.1 amp, Playstation PS4, which is removable, TV's on headrests.
    Lots for me to look forward too and it would be nice to take you on the journey.
    Vanlife is amazing, get out and explore, it's a great adventure.
    There are many great camper adventures to come

    My T6.1 has the factory middle radio (8inch) with wireless apple carplay, I can’t live without it now! I didn’t know Waze had improved that much, I’ll give it a go 👍🏼
    I have the upgraded California interior with improved insulation from factory. I don’t know how good it is compared to aftermarket but I’m really happy with the insulation as it is now.

    The 9 inch Alpine Halo head-unit is the sweet spot - as you get a screen that's way bigger and better than the stock unit while still looking OEM. I seriously concidered the 11 inch unit, but as it sat in front of the center vents and looked a bit too over the top in terms of size, I settled on the 9 inch which has the same key features but without the price hike for the bigger screen with increased resolution to offset its size.
    Alpine Halo head units are the GOAT 💯 👍

    I have a Tesla x6 head unit . It’s ok but I’d rather have the alpine system ❤

    I really like the look of these head unit ,but is the screen removable as I would be worried about coming back to my van and finding my window and head unit missing. I have the discover media system in my t6.1 highline and I find it more than ample. But both of my pervious cars I spent 1500 pounds on after market head units pioneer and Kenwood. I can see the advantages of the bigger screen.

      For your van it would be rude to keep the factory unit. Upgrade the speakers, deaden and insulate the front doors and you will notice a huge difference.
      I was told by 3 different suppliers that it doesn’t happen anymore, it’s not like the 90’s.
      To be honest it’s still a concern with mine. It isn’t easily removable, possible but it’s not designed for it.

    Do you have this wired to your leisure battery? If so, is it easy to do?

    • @StaycationLifestyle
      @StaycationLifestyle  Před 2 měsíci

      I wired this as normal. My original intention was to have it on a switch so it could be moved over to the leisure battery when on site, but I’ve never got round the changing it.

      ⁠@@StaycationLifestyle How quickly do you think it would drain the main battery if watching videos without the engine running?
