Hi all, I have installed a 200 WT panel. I run 2 130 amp AGM batteries. Batteries are used for very little as I am at home. My issue is after being in sun for 3 days the 240 volt charger goes to Boost when turned back on. Should the panel do the job or will the charger always cut in. Thanks for any info. Bill

And it is lightweight (336 grams), so great for caravanning. Has anyone on this forum tried one of these? If so, what a...

I've been told that most tyre rims on vans are not balanced, is this correct. Went & checked all four rims on my new van & yep - not balanced. Should they be? Does it make any difference if they are not balanced or it's nothing to worry about?
