    If the solar panels are putting in say 3amps (due to low light, cloud etc) & the fridge is using 8amps then your on board batteries will not top up. Bit like having a bucket with a hole in it allowing 8 litres of water/min out while you're trying to pour in 3 litres/min.

    I bought a 1999 built Coromal Pioneer XC in 2016 with the original Electrolux 3 way fridge fitted - still runs brilliantly today on all 3 systems. I’ve replaced the freezer door self closing hinges and cleaned out the pilot light burner jet and it fires up on gas every time. Couldn’t ask for better quality.

    I bought a new van in 2014, minus appliances. I had to buy a 3 way, because compressor fridges didn’t fit the opening! I don’t know if they are the same size now though! I really wanted a compressor fridge, but I did get a good price on my van. I spent the money I saved on the appliances. I fitted a Thetford ceramic bowl electric flush toilet, Ibis 3 aircon, Swift forced oven with wok burner & one ceramic hot plate, Swift stainless steel 28ltr dual fuel hot water unit & two Fiamma reversible fans in the ensuite, one to suck in & one to suck out! Great in summer!

    The fridge being raised with the hot water system now underneath and the microwave now overhead on the sink and bench side, was a specific design alteration I came up with and initiated with supreme last year, so we could have a full tunnel boot and more room next to the toilet in the ensuite in our new 20’ Territory. I see they liked the design and have made it standard. Just made more sense to us.

    It's the complete lack of basic etiquette so many new or even 'seasoned' caravaners DON'T exercise!

    Amazing tests. Very hard to find these types of tests on the internet. Most are just how to weigh a van. Would love to see more education videos on comparing weights even what two bikes at the back on vs off or two jerry cans at the back on vs off, generator up front on or off do to the tow ball weight. On a dual axle leaf sprung van if possible 😅

    Good job guys, a good explanation. Your dual axle van used has a non load sharing suspension like most of the newer vans these days. A load sharing suspension like my old Bushtracker caravan or your van fitted with air bags instead of coil springs will have the same result on the ball weight as your single axle van.

    • @Robinsons-road-ahead
      @Robinsons-road-ahead 22 дня назад

      yes most vans these days are usually off road suspension.

    • @jorobson1
      @jorobson1 21 день назад

      You will still find a weight transfer to the axles with air suspension, yes you will get better weight share but you will still find transfer to the axles as you lift or lower the tow ball height.

  • @jomo4850
    @jomo4850 22 дня назад

    In a load share dual axle aka most common spring suspension, but if air air bagged non load share the difference will be be mot to your scales, the airbag is a sweet ride the load share is a safe ride.

    Well done guys. We had our new 2024 van weighed last week and went 3177kg empty, 202kg on the ball and the compliance plate stated 2980 tare and 230kg ball weight..... What hope have travelers got when laws don't exist to hold manufacturers accountable...

    • @adelaiderv
      @adelaiderv 21 день назад

      All vans should be weighed after construction to ensure that the numbers stated on the plate are accurate for each individual van, as per ROVER compliance. We would suggest to you contact your dealer/manufacturer to sort it out.

      @Robinsons-road-ahead 22 дня назад

      Hey, yes, it does affect the tow ball depending on where your tanks are located. if water tanks are forward and you use water your ball weight will generally decrease and if you grey water is rear that also lightens the tow ball.

      Depending on the make and model of your van it may be difficult or not financially viable. We would suggest getting in touch with the dealer of your van or the manufacturer to see if it's an option first.
