Impeccable timing on your circumnav- we are stuck in Hawaii now waiting......had a new shutdown just last night. The AC water pump capacitor caused a genset shutdown at what should have been about 3

Bill, Is this a pieceof foam – about 2-3” - attached with a tie to the cable? It’s hard to tell. Thanks. Sailing Vessel- Cream Puff www.creampuff.us

If you can't keep the foam, one can attache cable ties to the cable and keep +/-5 cm of it, a few cable ties every 30-40 cm will take away most of the noice as it prevents the cable to dangle against

Thanks to all for your advice. Where would you set float on your alternator, Elja? I have a separate controller, so I can set float where ever I want it. Kent

Mark, I posted a photo (not a good one) earlier in this thread.

Then you have to go to Victron , they have a seperate BMS one for all batteries , and then you have all in one hand Charger/ inverter Solar regulation and altinator . One other question What happens

If someone could please post a picture of the foam, this wouldbe very helpful to me. I will soon bereplacing the Antenna (main mast), cables and VHF. I plan to thread the newcable from the top of

Hi Tom and Kirstin, I also have had at least a dozen shutdowns in the 17 years that I have owned Sabbatical III and in every case there was a shutdown code, including shutdowns due to a faulty sensor.

Hi, In the long run it is even more advisable to abandon the traditional car batterie style and take one 24 volt 400, 500 or 600Ah lithium batterie instead building it up from 12 or 24 volt sections.

Yes, and you should cut the altinator so that batteries are not always loaded in full during a long drive Elja SM Balu 222 Von meinem iPhone gesendet

Hey Mark- your post caught my eye because we are hull #422....,Bill's approach (eliminate sensors one by one) is what we do on L'ORIENT. I'm troubled by the lack of a diagnostic code, though. We've

We have the 175A LN alternator on a Yanmar 4JH3TE with double pulleys on the LN Alternator, and single on the 12V alternator. All three belts are the same... Dayco cogged belts, no idlers, A section

Hello, I got and tested the Optibelt pullys for 90mm discs. And to be tightened over their back. Did not change anything. Still dust and wear. I will switch to serpentine belts. Can' t be

I have adjusted the alignment and it is spot on. My theory is that I have been using B section belts (17mm) and the alt pulley has 84mm diameter. (This was what was on the boat when I bought her in

Hi Nick Have you checked the pully alignment? Miss alignment will cause excessive belt wear Hope this helps Bill Hall Looking to own an Amel

Battle Born was not very explicit about it in the Zoom meeting last week but in the long run it is very much advisable to use the 24 volt units instead of the 12 volt units. Using 24 volt units

Agreed Scott, Separate charger/inverter is the way to go with Victron and solves this problem once and for all. Just adding sensors all over my boat to measure anything I can think of at the moment.

The saga goes on. The belts for my 24v Leece Neville 175a alternator do not last and produce dust. So I have been scratching my head....and coming to some conclusions.... But before I go on can
