Installing my Van Electrics (800Ah Renogy System)

I walk you through my entire electrical install using Renogy components. I've now had the whole system up and running for a few months and it is AWESOME 🤘 I am now working with Renogy so will receive a little kick back at no extra cost to you if you use the links below. Some of the products I used have since been updated so may look a little different from the ones in my video. For the batteries, these are often sold on special offer at a huge discount (which was the case when I ordered mine) so the price may vary massively depending on when you order. Do get in touch with Renogy to work out your best option! ☕️ BUY ME A COFFEE: Support my journey and keep me fuelled with a lovely brew: https://buymeacoffee.com/vanlifeandchris 🛒 PRODUCTS USED: RENOGY PARTS: Renogy 400Ah REGO LifePo Lithium Ion Batteries: https://bit.ly/40B73nu Renogy Combiner Box: https://bit.ly/46zC7rb Renogy 3000W Inverter / Charger: https://bit.ly/401WsSo Renogy 50A DC-DC Charger with MPPT: https://renogy.sjv.io/L0Pv7a Renogy One Core Touch Screen Controller: https://renogy.sjv.io/QYOq7Y OTHER PRODUCTS: DHYAWUER 500A Dual Battery Isolator Switch: https://amzn.to/4qEo36R DIHOOL 60A Solar Isolator Switch: https://amzn.to/4tLld2S Kohree 12 Way 12v Fuse Box with Fuses: https://amzn.to/4aqaLWP Proteus 4 Module Metal Clad Enclosure: https://bit.ly/3MEWT1U Lewden 25A 2 Pole 30mA Type A RCD: https://bit.ly/4qJux4A Contactum 16A Single Pole 10kA B Curve MCB: https://bit.ly/46cQ8eq Copper Busbar: https://amzn.to/3OQ5CPj 30mm M8 Terminal Bolts: https://amzn.to/4atux3W Grey Slotted Trunking: https://bit.ly/4rUbJ3n SOCKETS: Black Double Sockets with USBs: https://amzn.to/46TtSGr Double Backboxes: https://amzn.to/4cAf2s6 CABLES: 70mm2 (Inverter & Battery Cable): https://bit.ly/4ryoGAs Hi-Flex 25mm2 (Vehicle Battery to DC-DC Charger): https://amzn.to/4aF1itH 6mm2 (Solar Cable): https://amzn.to/4rUBctx 4mm2 L/N/E (Inverter to Consumer Unit): https://amzn.to/4aKFSeF 1.5mm2 2 Core (To my Lights / USB Sockets etc): https://amzn.to/4rqi9HL CONNECTORS & HEATSHRINK: 70mm2 M8 Lug Crimps: https://amzn.to/3ZPeuHo Mixed Lug Crimp Set: https://amzn.to/4kKOQNH 25mm2 M8 Lug Crimps: https://amzn.to/4kNrV4i 6mm2 M8 Lug Crimps: https://amzn.to/4rrlvdL RED Ring Terminal (DC Fuse Board) Crimps: https://amzn.to/3MgW1R2 BLACK Ring Terminal (DC Fuse Board) Crimps: https://amzn.to/3ZHeedx Ferrules with Ferrule Crimper: https://amzn.to/4tLooaO Heatshrink Set: https://amzn.to/3MyCZpm FUSES: 400A MRBF (Inverter Supply): https://amzn.to/4apwYV0 100A MRBF (DC Fuse Board Supply): https://amzn.to/3Oy2HuA 80A MRBF (Air Con Supply): https://amzn.to/4cAb9n0 60A MRBF (Solar Feed): https://amzn.to/4u2s8VF 350A MEGA (Batteries): https://amzn.to/4kIXmg1 100A MEGA (Vehicle Battery DC-DC Feed): https://amzn.to/4qJyJBm 15A Solar Fuses: https://amzn.to/4qEuGWN MEGA Fuse Holders (For Batteries): https://amzn.to/46JjyRq TOOLS: Large 50mm Crimper: https://amzn.to/4tZS5oK Ferrules with Ferrule Crimper: https://amzn.to/4tLooaO CK Side Cutters: https://amzn.to/3OrVU5G Cable Strippers: https://amzn.to/4tLPfDt OTHER: 4 Way Stretch Carpet: https://ebay.us/m/wP7KgG ⏱️ CHAPTERS: 00:00 Intro / Walkthrough 03:19 Layout & Carpeting Wheel Arch 04:36 Prepping Mount Board 04:50 Battery Fusing & Copper Bar 07:00 Supply Cables 08:02 Inverter Supply 09:34 Combiner Box & MRBF Fuses 10:45 DC and AC Fuse Boards 11:33 Board Summary 14:09 Installing in the Van 15:05 Circuits & Van Grounding 16:44 Testing the System 18:45 Solar Connections 20:18 Installing 230v Sockets 27:14 Installing 230v Board & Supply 29:24 230v Test 30:26 Outro 📷 CAMERA GEAR USED: 🎥 Main Camera - Sony ZV-1: https://amzn.to/3Zr3b7B 📷 Additional Wide Angle Lens - Ulanzi WL-1: https://amzn.to/4gp5Mpt 🎙️ Wireless Mic - DJI Mic 2 - https://amzn.to/41klLB1 🌎 360 Camera - Insta360 X4 - https://amzn.to/4g3DIbz ✈️ Drone - DJI Mini 2 SE - https://amzn.to/3VpCLlG 🔗 CONNECT WITH ME: Instagram @vanlifeandchris TikTok @vanlifeandchris [email protected] 🔗 WHO AM I My name is Chris Lanterns.
