just finished my 12v on the MUX, built the side wing, accessories, fuse box etc....nothing better than DIY and I'm in IT mate, no electrical knowledge but that's what TH-cam and these types of videos are for.....Love it!!
How good is that mate, well done, and now every time you look at it you get satisfaction too! Its a win-win. Thanks for watching mate, and for the comment!
Currently looking at doing a simple set up and this has helped heaps! I’m not electrical minded and you’ve made it seem less daunting trying to tackle some of it on my own! Thanks for sharing!!
That's awesome mate!! Really appreciate the feedback, good luck with the install :)
I have the Kickass 12v Panel as well its a great piece of kit I just wish they put swing arm on the panel because trying to do any cabling on your own is a bloody nightmare! Aside from that I love the panel
What a great idea a swing arm would be!
Thanks for watching mate! 👍😀🍻
Starting my 12v setup on my canopy build here in Ut USA. your video helped a lot. Thanks!
Thanks a lot for letting me know, that’s great news! Really appreciate the comments!
Cheers
Richo
Love these videos, thanks so much for going into detail mate and recording with such good angles and quality. Really helps people like myself that have a Bitta knowledge around it but just not sure on some finer things 👍👍 thanks mate
Thanks mate, if I had one piece of advice it’s to plan as much as possible first. Makes the difference
Thanks for watching
Richo
Great build! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks so much!
Nice one Rich, coming along nicely. 👍🏻
Thanks mate!!
Did you consider putting grommets where the wires go through the bulkhead to protect the cables?
Was one of the first things I was taught when setting up in vehicle systems.
Yes absolutely should have used grommets, normally do. In fairness this was the first time I had used the caravan entry system a d the cables are not moving in the bulkhead at all. With the amount of silicone used I think I’m safe!
I really enjoyed this clip. Got some good ideas. Nice one
Hey mate, thanks for the comment, been watching your channel too, you fellas are so good on camera, loving the content. Keep em coming!
@@MudModsBeers thanks mate 👍
Awesome vid. How are the lights wired up to the rocker switch on the control box?
Thanks mate! Just brought the positive and negative from the lights into the control box and attached the negative to the negative bus bar and the positive via a spade connector to the switch I wanted to use for them. From memory it was the bottom right connector on the switch. Hope that helps and thanks for watching!
Looks great no need for those $8000 $10000 setups 👍
Thanks mate, really appreciate the comment!
Absolutely 💯
Looking good 👍 KISS
Thanks mate, KISS is always the best way. Thanks for the comment!
Hey mate, love the build. I am about to install a very similar setup. I was wondering what lugs you used throughout? Cheers mate
Hey mate, thanks for the comments, really appreciate it!
The lugs were 8mm holes and thick enough to suit the 6 gauge cable that was used throughout the build. Any 12v shop should guide you in the right direction for these. My tip would be to buy the heaviest duty crimper you can find. I’ve got a big kinchrome one that does the trick.
Thanks again & good luck with the build. Send a pic on insta when you finish it
Cheers 🍻
Hey mate! Any chance I could get a photo of the wiring diagram? Awesome setup would love to do something similar, Cheers
Hey mate,
Thanks for the comment! Appreciate it.
I don’t think I still have that piece of paper, I’ll have a hunt though and see what I can turn up.
Thanks for watching!

Hey mate how long is that canopy
Hey mate, it’s 1700 long.
How do you connect the solar panels on top to everything inside, did you just drill a hole in the roof and if so does water leak?
G'day mate, thanks for watching.
I've run the cables from the solar panel under the tent and down the front of the canopy behind the headboard. Than went to jaycar and bought this - www.jaycar.com.au/white-abs-solar-cable-entry-point/p/HS8866?pos=4&queryId=833dae43412f4111ea6939fabf06bcee. Drilled two holes the the front of the canopy sealed with Sika and stuck the housing on with the sike too. Hope this helps!
Thanks
Richo
How did 100ah battery cope
It was ok, but have since upgraded to 200Ah, much better!
Hey mate how do you go running both fridges off your set up
Hey mate, so far no dramas at all. Ran them both off a 100ah lithium for about 4 months, 24/7. Had the opportunity about a month ago to put a second 100ah in, now I don’t drop below 80% hardly ever. It’s going really well.
I think the 50amp Redarc helps heaps though, both solar and alternator pumping into it.
Thanks for watching!
Richo
What size cable did you use from the starting battery?
Hi mate, we used 6 gauge cable. Thanks for watching!
Spent big on the dcdc charger only to go and put a Kings upright fridge😂. I would rather put a Kings 40a dvdc charger with mppt controller built in and the put a Bushmans 85L fridge in.... Talk about crazy!😂
Thanks for the comment mate.
I look at it a bit differently. Got a great foundation now that will last well into the future. Eventually upgrading to 200ah lithium with inverter, induction etc.
The kings fridge may be a weak link, time will tell. Easy to replace down the track though without having to rip the system apart. The redarc has been proven throughout Oz as dependable and with its solar priority charging in my opinion is a game changer.
Thanks for watching!
@@MudModsBeersexactly right. You don’t skimp on the dcdc. Young blokes are clowns 🤡 sometimes 😂
Kings fridge is the same as the bushman’s I saw a fridge mechanic recommending it.
What did the system end up costing you?
Hi mate,
That's a great question! I'm not sure I have totalled everything up. If you have a look in the description of the video you will see most things that I've installed. However, some stuff we fabricated ourselves and others we got second hand of marketplace to keep costs down. Not a great answer sorry mate!
Too many adds. Don’t be so greedy.
