#11 Anton talks about his Defender's electrics

Anton Poplett has to rely on being able to run and charge his equipment when he's deep in the bush. In this day and age, it shouldn't be too difficult, but he's had his fair share of problems along the way.

Here are some of the tips and facts Anton refers to during our talk:

Remember your power draw in summer will differ from winter. In summer it’s possible the fridges will run for longer hours keeping temperature. In winter, you may use a diesel heater.

With my current setup in summer, I will average using 11% - 14% of my battery. In winter, I will use between 8% to 11%. It varies daily according to temperatures, sunrise, and sunset

DCDC charger: Ctek 250SE (lithium) and Ctek Smartpass

Inverter: Victron 500W inverter.

Solar panel: 300Watt (plugs in around 16-18Amps depending on angle towards the sun)

Battery: 305Ah lithium with BMS and bluetooth

Charging ports: single Distribution box with USB, type c, cigarette light, Anderson plugs with breakers,

Wiring: all wiring needs to be adequate for his usage. The gauge for wiring from the Ctek to the auxiliary battery will of course be much thicker than wiring to charge a USB type C.

Connecting points (like Anderson plugs): ensure all connecting and joins our firm and cannot rattle loose or cause a disconnection. This will give you false readings.

Calculating your power draw requirement. Add all of your devices you would like to use off the auxiliary battery. This includes laptop, lights, drones, Camera equipment, fridges/freezer, and so forth. Calculate as an average and when not driving.
