  i like this idea of doing videos about house design. You should be able to in post-edit to lower the resolution of the higher resolution video to match that of your lower video resolution so that for the most part they look the same. It is not going to be perfect but close enough. I guess in the UK it is easier to get stuff imported compared to the states. We are very picky on what you can get imported especially if it is food, plants, anything alive. Amazon is getting better in using recyclable packaging but still can be dumb sometimes on what it uses as packaging. For instance, I got 2 of the same type of product and one can in a box that is recyclable while the other came in a white bubble wrap. I confused why it didn't come in a box or like here in brown bags. Are you not using 12Vs in the caravan? I see your lamp uses a 230V plug.

  For some reason , YT didn't recommended your videos for three weeks ( I watch too much geopolitics , I suppose) , so I subscribed in order to remedy that. I wonder , why didn't you attempt to square the building - loader , or big tractor with hydraulic arm would have make that job easy (day , or two , depending on a weather , man power and their skills). With some diagonal bracing , it would stay square (I did it on couple of buildings , smaller though , with only using big truck (lorry ?) 50 ton jack and car for puling (in one case). I suppose that it is done for now (forever ?) , so my advice isn't helping...I'm going to check other videos I've missed now.

  Its right inside the building which is already half falling down so I dont think I could get any machinery in there to lift it. The cieling has also been constructed right up to the main roof which is why I insulated it between the rafters rather than on top. But I probably would have if it was a bit easier to get to. Glad you managed to find us again

• 
  @rbee39367 күн бұрын

  The tripping problem may be that you only have 1 battery - might I suggest having 2 (in parallel) to double the power the batteries can feed and be charged by. Your battery is probably 50A nominal current - about 2.5KW (or 100A max - 5KW max). These figures double with a 2 battery setup. This should help stop the battery maxing out.

• 
  @offgridscotland4 күн бұрын

  Someone pointed out I needed to run two power cables from the batteries (we do have 2) as the one I have is too thin to use the whole 8.5k so you are right on the money.

• 
  @rbee39364 күн бұрын

  @@offgridscotland It's not the thickness of the cable, it's the fact that a 5.32KWh battery can only give you 5KW on it's own. If you had 2 batteries you could generate the inverter's maximum output of 8.8KW from just the batteries alone, and any solar generated would supplement the batteries. ie. If you wanted a load of 6KW, the single battery setup would only cope if you had 1KW of solar too. Much better to have 2 batteries, then your excess solar and hydro can be stored in the batteries.

  Good review. It's not the camera for me either. I use powered cameras to provide continuous streams of RTSP. Then I do the monitoring and recording on a windows PC with the Blue Iris software. It is rock solid. As you say, the camera needs to be running and the images securely stored if there is any kind of event, and I can't rely on battery cameras with built-in processing.

  The vents on the floor (tipically below the gas boiler and gas appliances ) are there for a reason. This is to provide a route for gas to escape should you have a leak! (Gas being heavier than air). Boxing in the underside of your caravan could cause a build up of gas under your caravan. I'm sure there is some legislation as regards this and it may be advisable to investigate and provide the right amount of ventilation. Keep up the good work and be safe!
