How to thrive on a non 240v site!

We have just bought a 10kg & we're delighted with it.

Don't really have a need for a 2nd & Cheadle is a bit of a trek from Dorset.

Oh I see! Not at all surprised that you are pleased with it- Safefill is something that our forebears could only dream of. 

Not really linked to the presence or absence of ehu but my wife remarked this morning do you realise that we are on the fifth day of our holiday and we have done a total of 138 miles. 

The view from the bar we are currently at. 

 

Just been reading a report regarding the efficiency of Solar panels and the developments that are going on within the industry which is already 60yrs old surprisingly. I would have given it an age of 20yrs tops. Once you have cut your way through all the jargon of Percs, Perls etc They reckon by 2025, panels will be 25% more efficient than they are now. Although the record stands at 26.6% conversion rate - that's light to usable electricity,-  the panels produced now if mono crystalline( the most efficient)  are around 21% but the production methods will improve to a point where the top absorption rate is achieved on production panels. All good for non EHU.

With the needs for practical power storage for electric vehicles and renewable energy sources.  I think that one thing is certain is that the this problem won't  remain unsolved due to a lack of money being thrown at it. 

Yes. With electric vehicles becoming more and more common a campsite of any sort without 240 v. hook up points is a ridiculous idea. 

Rightly or wrongly last year I invested in a battery gizmo that stores electricity from the roof panels, I find it very interesting to watch. Anything over 19% capacity on the battery thing and I can run the washing machine or something.  In addition to the normal use of solar energy.  So they are moving in the right direction.  I should be able to read all the input figures on my iPad but haven't managed to link the Internet connection to the shed where the panels are but it feels as though I am saving money!  I haven't compared it's weight to a 12v battery but expect it's heavier.  Larger too being about 20 x 18 x 4" in size.
