Hi all
Those who may have read my previous adventures regarding the towbar cable will be pleased to know I have wired both 7n/7s cables into one 13 pin, which fits into the towbar electrics with no adaptor. We have hazards, indicators, brake lights, night lights, and crucially nightlights & brakelights at the same time (assuming the brake pedel is engaged)! THere are absolutely no reverse lights on the caravan, and as i would rather do a detour round the sun than reverse the wagon, I'm ok with that.
The Mrs signed me up for a Facebook Caravanning page, loads of advice but I think there is a definite US bias in terms of equipment and advice. My latest worry concerns plugging in the caravan power cable from the house. I have an adaptor to fit the caravan power point, the other end just plugs into a normal household wall socket. The FB group recommends plugging into a converter, again, it's US based whose sockets run off different voltages (110 I think, not 240).
Am I in danger of burning the house down? Or setting fire to the caravan?
