You are the only one that explains very well the fuse size. I’ve watched several videos and none explains it good as you. Your video has great info. Thank you
Good video. Thank you. FYI…I tested several dimmers and several 24-12V buck converters before settling on one. Be aware of their idle consumption or even “Off” consumption using an accurate 100A DC clamp meter (.01A increment). They all varied between 0-195mA!! If you are running on solar, we have to watch energy usage. So, a switch before some dimmers and all buck converters are needed.
Thanks, however, I fail to see why a buck converter is needed in this application. If you have a constant voltage within range of the item(s) you are powering, this is not needed. Let's say I had a 17V system (which probably isn't realistic), then I would want a buck converter to bring the voltage to 12V for my 12V items. Yes it is possible for switches, especially those with a tiny LED status indicator on them to always pull tiny bits of power. Unless you are running a very small system, I wouldn't worry about calculating that into your equations unless you plan to park for months at a time without providing a charge back into your system. And in that case I would suggest to develop a system shutdown procedure, and possibly a trickle charge setup.
Can you show me how to have a 2 way circuit, control switch . So i can control the lights from the dash and from the vans rear doors as needed or used , please. Thank you
Hi. I am not building any dual switch circuits in my van, at least I don't think I will be. So, while I'd rather not send you to another channel, this Explorist.Life video is exactly what you need: ruclips.net/video/WRQuVMFlric/видео.html
I think you mean this part a.co/d/hs25Dfj and it was something like this, not this exact one, and I cut off the female end so I could have access to the wires (copper).
At some point in your life, you knew nothing too, and maybe you still do per your handle? ;) Some people appreciate extreme detail for learning to DIY their own projects. If you don't need this level of detail, you're a step ahead of others. If you don't want to learn it, of course you can pay someone! Have fun out there.
@@VanTransitions If you want a person to learn then what you don't do is provide an idiots guide. The only thing they are learning is how not to think. Next they will be following your detailed instructions to wire their house lights. And as you should know they will probably switch off the wrong circuit and work on the "three way" while it is live. The level of detail you have provided is for somebody with absolutely no knowledge of electricity. It must have taken a lot of work on your part BUT I still think it is dangerous. (A little learning is ..... )
I appreciate you sharing. This is how I am wiring the lights in my van. If this helps someone else wire theirs, great. My video should be 1 of many reference videos that a person watches to gain knowledge from multiple sources. And anyone without strong knowledge should consult an EE (Electrical Engineer).
@@VanTransitions I do appreciate the amount of time you spent producing an understandable video. It is not easy, requires many skills and takes time that could be spent building your own van. Self education is a great thing but should be built on a firm knowledge base. Quite often it is quicker and cheaper to consult someone who has done it before (the lowest qualification of a professional). Keep up the good work. Regards.
Was hard to follow as you talked because camera was panned out making it hard to visually see as you worked. You explained things very well... but please zoom in closer for your next tutorial. Some of us NEED those visuals.

a great explanation - plainly spoken , so this made it so easy to understand- Thank you .
You are welcome!

You're welcome
Thanks for the walkthrough. I'm doing research for a few small 12v solar builds I have coming up this fall, and I found your video very helpful.
Glad it was helpful!

Great Video Very well Explained! thankd for taking the time to make this.
Glad you enjoyed it!

Drop a link to that socket charger with the live wires coming out of it connected to the blueetti. I can’t find it

A detailed and long winded explanation for people new to electricity. Just pay somebody to do the work.

If its not for you, then pass it by. Someone's always gotta bitch about something nowadays.

thanks for the feedback, hope you got it figured out, I love these lever nuts
