A Bit Of A Review…

We or more probably me don’t normally do site reviews. That said we recently came back from a few days away at Donkey Creek Farm in Freckleton, and we liked it that much I had to put pen to paper…. or in more modern parlance lay fingers on keys. The site is located on Naze…

Flushed With Success…

We have just been for a short stay at Donkey Creek Farm in Freckleton, near Warton…. just up the road from Lytham…. that’s near Blackpool. OK you get the idea. We can’t recommend this site highly enough, in fact in a break of usualness I’m going to write a little review. OK back to the…

Lighting Up The Scene…

A while ago I upgraded the lights on our caravan by changing the functions round and added two new LED reversing lights which I can’t understand why I hadn’t done this years ago. In daylight they are bright… and at night they are really bright… retina burning bright according to reports. Reversing into a dark…

Keeping Electrons Contained…

One thing about being retired… you have way too much time to think about things. One thing that has been wandering round my grey cells for the last few months relates to an email I had September last year and it was from someone who was fitting out a van and had a few electrical…

Something for BMW X3 owners…

A while ago I had an email from a chap called Roy. I thought it was going to be an easy one to sort out but never expected what the eventual issue was. Rather than try to explain all the steps, which is difficult sometimes trying to diagnose without actually being hands on, Roy did…

Is This A Growing Trend..?

First things first… Happy New Year to you all. Ok so I’m a bit late but there you go, that’s what retirement does for you… no sense of time. Right, I seem to be receiving a LOT and by a lot I mean 3 or 4 emails a week offering to provide content for my…

Adapting Our Bike Rack for e-Bikes

Getting to that certain age brings on some restrictions…. My left knee is a bit suspect and Sue’s hip is not as ‘hop’ as it was anymore, This meant of we haven’t been using our bikes as much and as Sue has now officially retired and Henry has settled in to caravanning we are getting…

Has Bailey Built Our Perfect Caravan?…

You know by now I don’t do caravan reviews. I leave it to people far better at it than myself. I have however over the years written a few articles about caravan design ( Never admit to being a caravan designer ) and waffled on as we looked around pondering the merits of changing our…

Just a quick one…

Lithium Upgrade for a caravan I’ve had quite a few people email me asking for more information about the Victron system for a caravan that I was planning mentioned in the previous post. As this seems to have generated a number of questions, rather than give detailed answers to each one I thought I’d post…

A Few Mods and Updates…

After our recent trip to Meathop Fell it was time to say goodbye to an old friend. We have had our leisure battery since 2011 and for 11 years it has given us great service. For the last year or so I have thought hard about converting over to Lithium and drew up plans for…

    Sorry to be a pain but, what is the best way to connect the batteries to the inverter. Normally I'd…

  4. Nigel Chapman on Overland Vehicle Electrics and Other Stuff…May 22, 2023

    Thanks for the information. Now I can order the cable without worrying if I've got it wrong. Regards Nigel.

  5. Simon Barlow on Overland Vehicle Electrics and Other Stuff…May 22, 2023

    The rule is size the cable for the furthest battery... so do the volt drop calculation as thought BOTH batteries…

    A very interesting and well written account. It seems that there are lots of similarities in caravanning there and in…

    One of the greater joys of Caravanning is all of the DIY jobs that it brings your way.
