Looking for electrician to fix my van battery to the solar panel. My van is Autotrail Vline 610 SE 2019 model. We live in Pudsey West Yorkshire.
 
Direct Motorhome Services
Who are based near Birmingham, but travel daily all over the country.
They did a very good job of fitting my WiFi at my storage place in Kent.
Two guys in a van, arrived with all the kit they needed, ladders etc.
And were all done in under 2 hours, they even took their rubbish with them.

Surely the V Line 610 has a 100watt solar panel fitted from new, ours did in 2017 and our present 635 has one as standard fit.
We have though wired the panel through a Fox unit so we can check the watts being provided and battery state, by passed the Sargent unit and connected via a regulator direct to the two 115amp batteries.
I have noticed, only yesterday as it happens, that when the batteries are being maintained on ehl that they are held at 13.6v but when sunny as it was yesterday that they are 14.6v, this I think does the 4 year old batteries no harm ( swooped from our V Line 610 )

Does your solar panel charge the van battery when the van is stood not connected to mains electric.
 
Not now, it was selectable on the main control panel.
Our solar now charges both leisure and cab batteries by fitting a CBE unit ( battery master clone) cheaper £30 ish, 2 wires + - from leisure batteries to the CBE and one to the + terminal on the cab battery. Dead easy to fit, you will need approx 4-5 mtrs of wire to reach to the cab battery from under the settee where the leisure batteries are. Run the wire under the van.
The CBE unit can be bought from Solar Solutions 01258 268010 or 01202 632480 Wes will post it to you.
