Added Solar to the Nuevo

Had a little fiddle and added a simple solar system to the Nuevo using the supplied fixing points and a separate 130 amp hour battery

That voice sounds very familiar. And is that a boat I saw in the video 

Her indoors as well

Probably

I didn't fix directly to the roof because My Nuevo had fixing points for roof rails. so I used those with bolts. I know CT1 or Silkaflex is very strong but I simple would not be happy in my mind going along the bumpy old windy roads with it stuck on. Also using the designed fixing points in my mind made it easier and more removable.

I just connected my new 130 ah leisure battery in parallel with the  80 ah supplied by Auto Sleepers and that also seemed to work fine. I have included an isolator in the parallel  positive connection so I can run them as two completely separate systems which is my preference. 

I am not sure how AS has wired stuff up with the various methods of charging the 80 ah supplied leisure battery so when the engine is running or we are on hook up I will disconnect the parallel connection between the 80 and 130 batteries. It will only be if we are off grid and not using the engine for more than 2 days will I tie them both together.

Probably being over cautious but when I add stuff like this I like to do it so I understand what I have done and can easily remove or isolate it from the AS installed kit.

All looks good, but your cable ties will stop the bed frame from sliding out..

 Not sure I know what you mean. What is it I need to slide out ?

Maybe you don't use the double bed. Push the lever down on the front bed panel and the whole frame slides out on runners. Same on the other side, backrests drop into the gaps, double bed.

Ah yes excellent point. I see what you mean. Need to fix that. We do indeed use the double bed.... Thanks for the heads up. I blame her indoors

Again thanks for the heads up. All fixed now and actually in a better position. The bed will slide into position now
