MOTORHOME UPGRADES! time to update the old girl MAXX AIR FAN
After deciding to keep our motorhome, we then got cracking with some upgrades we would be able to do ourselves.
Out with the old and in with the new.
We have got big plans for upgrading and updating the old girl (shes 13 now!)
Dethleffs globbus are few and far between and weve decided that although we do break her now and again, shes a solid and reliable van with many years left in her yet!
Here’s the link to the cheaper fan we bought from eBay

It also took 5 hours to charge from 55 percent to 100 percent ! I contacted the company very difficult to deal with still have this! They are not a good company to deal with !

    We've just watched your latest vlog with interest and think that the Maxxfan could solve a real issue in the van when it gets warm. It would be good to know if they produce a smaller fan around 20cm x 20cm that would fit the bathroom. You spoke about air cooling. When we placed the order for our van in October 2022 we bought a "Totalcool" unit at the NEC. It was on offer and certainly not the £299.00 that they are currently retailing at. Have to say it's very effective. Good to see Wilf settling in! He really has fallen on his paws❤! Take care guys. Looking forward to catching up with you all at Vanlove Fest in July. Sid and Nicola.

    I think you will find that the Maxfan is on of the best accessories you will ever fit. I do agree with a previous post about the current draw though. We wired ours direct to a dedicated fuse in the hab fuse box. Be careful wiring them via a light. We enjoy your videos and have been following you since Greece, keep up the good work.

    • @redsgotravels
      @redsgotravels 3 วันที่ผ่านมา

      It’s fab isn’t it 🙂❤️ the fan takes 4 amps max , the fuse on the lights is 15 amps , all the lights are fortunately led , apart from the feed light , which is redundant , so the draw won’t exceed the fuse or wire capacity , we will swap the fluorescent one for led at some point 🙂 so glad to hear you’ve been on board with us for so long 🙂💖 safe travels ahead !

We are having a max air fan fitted on 12th July.i could fit it myself,it's just the wiring I'm no good at.dont trust myself.if you are thinking of buying a cool air unit that you put water in or ice cubes don't waste your money,we bought one years ago called a trans cool and they don't work very well.might just as well put a normal fan on.we invested in an Eco Flow Wave 2.not cheap but works brilliant.you can run them off your battery bank aswell.a little bulky but we fit ours between the cab seats.No problem,we got ours running as we speak,we're in Andalusia and it's hot!

    Adding a fan to a lighting circuit is going to add a substantial extra load. You need to be confident the lighting wiring can carry the fan load or it could melt. Also might want to update the fuse to the correct load for the fan or it could keep blowing. You could swap out the fluorescent tube for an LED version as well. The ice cooler fans will effectively blow moist air around your van, not something I'd want in my van but in a hot country it might not be an issue

    • @redsgotravels
      @redsgotravels 3 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Hi Andrew , thanks so much for the advice, really appreciated, the fuse on the lights is 15 amps, and fortunately every light in the van is LED , apart from the one I’ve taken the power from, the fan at max speed draws 4 amps, and we never use the fluorescent tube, but and upgrade to led is a great suggestion , as the current draw is quite a difference , ref the ice cooler fans, it’s something we will look into prior to our trip to Portugal 🙂 appreciate the advice, really helpful 🙂❤️

    To Remove the bathroom Heki Roof Light you need a T10 torx bit for 4 screws it will then come out leaving the surround in roof hole. Separate Vent Light into two pieces with handles using a T25 torx bit removing 4 screws. Clean carefully as this is acrylic use lots of water and do not scrub. A lot of dust will be between the two halves.

    • @redsgotravels
      @redsgotravels 3 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Good morning Simon ! The standard motorhome fans are usually sky lights , which have a manual open / close and that’s it, the fans we fitted are electric powered and can either push or pull air , so with two fans we have one pushing out hot air, one pulling in cooler , so we have a forced flow of cool air , they can be temp controlled , close automatically when it rains and have tow large internal fans that give quite some airflow 🙂 we use safeguard for our vehicle insurance, just over £400 for the year , which covers us for breakdown too , and for travel insurance we normally use the post office , for which we are in the process of renewing soon , but prices have risen , so we shall shop around , it’s coming in at over £100 each 👍🙂 hope that helps

      Hi all I have 2 of these on my self build camper van. Setting the sleeping fan to out and the opposite to in works a treat. Hardly any condensation on windows at all. 30% in 20% out. Only thing that I don’t like is the blind isn’t really a black out. Any remote will work both fans so you don’t have to mount 2 remotes in the van. I love the fact that coach built vans are jumping on self build products. Happy travels everyone

    Hi little Wilf! ❤ Ahhh...he's gorgeous! Welcome to the 3 dogs owners brigade! They do say that when you have 2 dogs you have 2 dogs, but when you have 3 dogs you have a pack. That's certainly been our experience. We have to be a bit stricter to keep some semblance of order nowadays, or the lunatics would be running the asylum! 🤪 Hopefully the girls will show little Wilf the Redders-ropes with motorhome life 😊. Thanks for the mention, that took me by surprise 😂. The new fans are looking great guys 🎉 Well done Redders and essential supportive tea making Corrin! Your garage is like my husbands, very very organised, a hook for everything! Won't the light coming in over your bed from the Max Air fan bother you? I find since I've become a lady of a certain age 😂 that even a chink of light wakes me up. I wonder if Max Air make a cassette blind to go over it?...As you say, velcro would do the job just as well. Speaking of keeping cool, some friends of ours have a mini split air-conditioning unit for their caravan. You hang one unit (about the size of a rucksack/cabin bag) out of the van window and close the window onto the a little pipe/umbilical cord connector to the indoor unit. They got it as they have dogs and have travelled in Italy, the proverbial SCORCHIO 🥵, and its been brilliant apparently. Power hungry, but they stayed on campsites in the hottest areas so they could use the hookup. Might be worth a look? I made a note of it for our future van, its by a company called Eurom. Please show us if you decide to vinyl more of the woodwork Corrin, would love to see how thats done. Must freshen everything up and as you say it breaks up the "wood everywhere" look that lots of mohos have. Have a great week all of you.

    Neat job. When you get to Portugal go up top a couple of times to check the sealant is holding firm in the high direct heat though. Will be interesting to see if this helps in a hot climate.

    Great video! We also fitted a Maxxfan deluxe. We had to take the power from the fuse box as it drew too much current from a light fitting, also you may need to fit a regulator to keep it at a steady 12volts. We did with ours and its been in for 5yearswith no issues. X
