This kit will provide you with a 12V on/off grid system and a 240V mains hook up system.
You'll be able to keep your leisure battery topped up while on the move as it charges from your vehicle via the voltage sensitive relay. You can also wire up five 12V accessories (such as lights, water pump, fridge etc.) via the 5 gang main control panel which includes a built in voltmeter, dual USB ports, and a 12V socket.
Got some more tech you need charged? We'll also include a mini panel with yet another dual USB and 12V socket.
When you get to site, just simply plug into the 16A hook up to get 240V running through your van, powering a double socket, switch for your 2/3 way fridge (this can be changed to single socket if you don't have a fridge) and a single socket you use to plug in your on-board smart battery charger. This is fitted so that you can keep your 12V system powered up and leisure battery charged even when you aren't on the move.
