So Just a small camper van then 😉, I did half own a volvo BM10 coach as a camper, it was 12m long and a deck and a half and was about 17t GVW and then towing a 6.5m trailer. For a cheap inverter you can use a computer UPS unit, some of them run on 24v, we picked up a 1200w one with duff batteries (not needed) for £16. You just need to snip off the alarm buzzer and put some external battery leads on. A cheap way to get a pure sinewave inverter.

Not directly as that was a comparison to SK78 not SK75 (which the listed rope is made of), if you look at SK78 it says " SK78 has the same strength as SK75 but offers significantly improved elongation and creep characteristics than it’s predecessor. " So adding the SK78 improvement and the SK99 improvement you do actually get my statement

SK75 is 4 generations old, SK99 is 20% stronger and but offers significantly improved elongation and creep characteristics https://www.marlowropes.com/dyneema-technical-information

For soldering I find a pair of helping hands is useful https://www.amazon.co.uk/Rolson-Tools-60335-Helping-Magnifying/dp/B001BMSBD4

So that Model States an energy use of 73kWh/Year (it's in the picture of the standard energy efficiency label) Some calculation so this is 0.2kWh a day or 200Wh a day (* there are some gross assumptions here but about voltage conversions but Wh sort of removes that) So https://www.campingandcaravanningclub.co.uk/helpandadvice/technicalhelp/solar-power/ States that a 50W panel generate 300-350Wh a Day in summer (less in winter, but then less cooling would be needed in winter)

And that has turned up part number STC8516 Thanks

Thanks, seems they made them in 17" for the Freelander as well so why not 18" for Discovery.

Can anybody tell me the wheel style name of the Discovery 2 (51 plate) R18 wheels in the picture

For 14 CUX you will probably need another 5K car TPS POT as most normal POT's would be 5K over around 270 degrees where are a TPS is probably 5K over 90 degrees

My only concern is how waterproof is that Pot (normal ones are not very waterproof)

Or just inflate to 8psi because you want the extra grip in the mud And the will be sliced to shreds by stones / perished before they wear out.

Can just buy the wheel bracing bar many on ebay https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Recovery-Alloy-Wheel-Securing-Link-Straps-Trailer-Transporter-x-4-Yellow-Purple/151435048831 or https://www.ebay.co.uk/p/451869-Merry-Recovery-Ratchet-Car-Alloy-Wheel-Protection-Straps/1271210159 Just make sure your existing straps are long enough (4m straps were a bit short especially on 35 inch plus tyres, 5m was better on a standard ifor trailer) Ebay has lots of cheap recovery straps set.

Why bother with fuel cells when it is very easy to run a normal petrol engine on mostly Ethanol. There are a number of vehicles that will run on e85 ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E85 ) which is 85% Ethanol . France and the US have this more generally available.

Unfortunately Electric cars actual do have fluids in them. The high performance batteries, electronics and motors need cooling, there are reduction gearboxes with oil and brakes with hydraulic fluid, etc

How about LPG your diesel. More power, cleaner burn (note lpg on diesel is not a fuel replacement, but as an additive)

They might call it a "Slim line quick coupler" I think (I might be wrong) e.g. you need https://www.sipuk.co.uk/sip-02321quick-release-slimline-female-coupler-1-4-bspt-end-fitting.html https://www.sipuk.co.uk/sip-02322-quick-release-slimline-male-coupler-1-4-bspt-end-fitting.html To go to standard BSP The top ring in the picture slots in to the nut and then the nut screws down to just press it against the pipe.

I assume you mean a Banjo eye/tail Best I can find is M6 x 4mm https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/PLAIN-TAIL-BANJO-EYE-UNION-FUEL-LINE-HOSE-FITTINGS-M18-M16-M14-M12-M10-M8-M6-/331603495414

I had a standard one behind a steering guard, it got bent slightly in a winch challenge competition, it soon snapped due to metal fatigue. (There was a lot of left to right wheel turning at low speed/stationary so it got straightened and re-bent a lot).

Yes probably only diameter difference, but you mentioned using truck pumps. From reading in Europe they will probably be to EN 13012 standard (a preview of this was on the Swedish site) And they had 2 types of nozzle Type I as per ISO design for up to 80l/min Type II for 80 to 200 l/min (they started to set out the design in the doc from the looks of it) So a truck pump might be a Type II design

And a Swedish site give a preview https://www.sis.se/api/document/preview/8697/ and also has the en standard and the preview of ISO 9158 which has this diagram Seems this is the unleaded standard, it sound like you want the unleaded/diesel standard which they don't have a preview of.

I had a water eberspacher (espar in the US) and it had no blower noise because it was connected to household radiators so no air need to be blown.

Have you tried the app called Viewranger (http://www.viewranger.com/en-gb) very good at tracking your position with lots of map options but no turn by turn or Here ( https://www.here.com/en ) for turn by turn.

And then you can add in quick charge capabilities, (I think there are only 2 types for that, but they do also come is various versions). These can also increase the voltage over USB, part of why they do this is that battery charging rate is related to input voltage - the battery voltage. i.e as a battery gets charged the voltage difference decreases and thus the power that can be inputed decreases. But it seems that the problem is identified, the original posting was not clear that it was a dual socket converter that probably only had a 2.4A buck so if the 1A socket took 1A there was on 1.4A for the 2.1A socket. Solution buy a better convert like the blue sea one Scotts90 posted
