Well I have been fiddling about in my new Motorhome transferring bits from the old one, I keep finding switches and lights, so many it’s unbelievable, even led lights in the shower, on the step when you come in, around the command system controls, in wardrobe, in drawers, above cabinets, under cabinets, spotlights with dimmers all round the place, under seats and under the bed, I wonder how long my batteries will last if they were all on ?

has yours got leds in the toilet? or is it the sun shining from your arse? :roflmto:
Well I can’t imagine what would be in a posh Motorhome if I have all those in my cheapo Swift!
 
should give you a clue.They use hardly anything.
I know but look how many there are, maybe I need to try and find what amps are being used when all on 12v ?

Although LED’s are very efficient I was very surprised at how many Amps were drawn on some of mine, the 6m awning light in particular, about 5A

in answer to your question , how long would your battery last, presuming you are using them because it is dark ? and not on hook up, you would be lucky to get a couple of hours off a single battery if you have them all on

That’s what I thought there are a hell of a lot!
 
Me being a tight fisted git, I’d only have one on at a time....?
 
Rear lounge!

You could just have bought a caravan.

It’s a lovely looking MH :)
 
The App lets you control front or rear in a group not individually via the phone / iPad App, so you can dim them, you can also operate the awning light and another set, still trying to work it all out. The App seems to run via bluetooth when you are in the van then via wifi when out and about, so you could put the awning light on from anywhere in them world or check and change any of your power, heating controls or even empty your waste or fresh water, no idea why you need it, maybe putting on the heating is handy if you are returning to your pitch in winter. Oh well lots to play with and learn, just don't want flat batteries, although I have had a 2nd 95 fitted (y)
