    Thanks for the video. I have a caddy. I don’t have the space for a leisure battery. Would these lights be safe to jump off the old interior light. Obviously I know it will drain if left on for ages. Thanks again

    Alright m8? I'm just fitting the same lights in my van! Are the wires ok sitting behind the ply as they are, no over heating ?

    You don’t show connecting the wire into a switch which is the part I really wanted to see... trying to fit these lights into my T4 and can’t work out if I can just use existing wiring in the back of my van or have to run new stuff in

    Would of been good if you'd shown the lights working at night so one could work out of its enough or to much light for the van. Are these the lights with dimmers?

    • @GDUBTV
      @GDUBTV  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      I would say maybe a tad too bright, these are cool white rather than warm white so quite a cold clinical light. No dimmers.

    Hi, just checking on the ceiling lights you fitted in the vid, are they a drain on your van battery ?? I.e wired up or in cig lighter. ? Thanks

    • @GDUBTV
      @GDUBTV  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      They’re connected to the leisure battery, no drain on the vehicle battery 🔋

      @warrenarrowsmith4241 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks for replying. Sorry I meant to say if you didn’t have leisure batt set up do they drain a lot from your van battery? Thankyou 👍

    I will have a split charger system fitted with leisure battery, the arctic cable for 240v but no control panel yet, how would I wire up the 12V led lights sockets and switches directly to the leisure battery? TIA

    Can you do a catch up video ok on fitting the split charge and leisure battery?

    • @GDUBTV
      @GDUBTV  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      After I've wired in the Sargent EC-160 power control unit I'll do a feedback on how all the electrics work including the split and leisure battery - Hope that helps! ;)
