Over the years I've noticed my house has become more and more power hungry. Not because I'm a megalomaniac, but simply because the number of electrical appliances has grown exponentially, and now I really can't imagine life without my wifi, coffee maker, and Ninja Air Fryer. Mr M. is clearly a kindred spirit, because we have just handed over his Auto Explore RB complete with a power set up to rival a small sub station. We fitted a Lithium ion leisure battery with a whopping 460A/H and 3000 watt invertor that offers a constant 230V supply whether plugged into the mains or not. A free standing solar panel plugs conveniently into an outside socket for sunshine top ups. And what does one do with all that power - run the electric / diesel boiler, a nice big TV, top notch wifi, and should they be needed, multiple screens for reversing and CarPlay. Just watch out for the beacon of light on a Devon campsite near you.
