NOCO AC Port Plug Install

NOCO AC Port Plug Install

We installed a NOCO GPC1 AC Port Plug Power Inlet for the 125V Shore Power to 12v Converter Charger System in our van. The  NOCO GCP1 is a simple-to-install 15 Amp plug-in port to run AC power for charging and heat. Running a cable entry into the van by slamming in the door is one option, but a better way to get the AC power into your van is with an AC Port Plug Power Inlet. … [Read more...] about NOCO AC Port Plug Install

We had a 12 Volt Converter Charger leftover from a dismantled build, instead of leaving it sit unused, we decided to use it as part of the simple electrical system in our Ram ProMaster.  A 12v Converter Charger is a great way to keep your RV or Van batteries topped up if not using solar or engine power via a DC-DC charger. Parked in the shade or don’t have a solar … [Read more...] about 12V Converter Charger Install

Installing a 12V LED Dimmer Switch In Our Van

We installed a 12V Dimmer Switch for the recessed ceiling-mounted LED Puck Lights in our van. While we have been using the LED Lighting in our van for a while now, they are so bright. At times, too bright. Now, this is great when you need lots of light, for tasks like cooking, reading, or playing games. The rest of the time, using a dimmer switch makes the lighting way more … [Read more...] about 12V LED Dimmer Switch
