REDARC BMS INSTALLATION !
�
With more than a decade of caravan travel under our belts that ’ s included a couple of laps of the map , it ’ s been a perfect and memorable way to see the country . And travelling with our 11-year-old caravan , which has an ensuite , diesel heating and even a 12V airconditioner , it has everything we ’ ve needed , plus more . But it hasn ’ t all been roses – our ability to free-camp unplugged for extended periods is one area where our caravan has lacked . We really never knew how well our batteries were charged , or how much capacity they had left .
You could say the caravan ’ s electrical system was current when we purchased it more than a decade ago , but it was pretty basic . The electrical system largely focused on being a 12V power supply with a charger , and it used additional components from multiple brands and devices . It was a bit of a dog ’ s breakfast by today ’ s standards and wasn ’ t a true battery management system . Although it worked , today ’ s technology is vastly improved , and there ’ s far better solutions available in the world of battery management . It was time for an upgrade .
