Hi,
Sorry, but I'm a complete novice. I've got a Duo Plus that is not fitted to hook-up to mains although there is wiring in place but not the external plug etc. That doesn't worry me too much as there is only me and I 'm sure I can manage by relying on the 12v battery which is in excellent condition. What I am not sure about is how much and for how long one can use the 12v supply . I only intend running the internal ceiling light and perhaps one or two of the little spotlights for perhaps a couple of hours at a time. I have bought a 7" portable TV which I may watch for two or three hours at a time also but nothing else. (I'll run the fridge either on gas or only when the engine is running if I use the battery.) How long do you think I can run these without draining the battery?
(By the way, if I wanted to install the necessary equipment to hook-up, has anyone any idea how much that would cost?)
