Dunno, it won't load Confused

2.5w 12v panel. Usually £25.99 but now £12.99. Just about enough to keep pace with an Engel, plenty for normal park-up

They do a much larger panel for £49.99 - 12v 10w. I'm thinking someone putting together some kind of Sankey project would do well to consider the larger capacity one Whistle
 I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.

This one : http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?moduleno=223251

The other one won't keep pace with the current draw of an Engel but this one does. Thumbs Up

The larger one (suitable for a Sankey Bodsy Whistle ) is http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?moduleno=217850

Actually, might hang on to the smaller 2.4Wones for the car (one each side on the rear windows) and get one of the larger ones for the treehouse. Well, every treehouse has to have 12v lighting and an in-car DVD system adapted for treehouse use, doesn't it? Laughing

You can also connect it through the towing electrics - makes it a quick disconnect when you are ready to leave. Pull the plug, stow in the boot, off you go. Very Happy
