What a great bit of kit! I’ve been looking for an alternative to Redarc for my 79 canopy. (I’m wary of big companies with big marketing budgets). I will be ordering this kit! How’s the stock availability?
Yes it will switch the ARB compressor, even the twin as the switching is low current. The system will measure up to 100A through the battery connection which is less than the ARB twin. Yes you can wire in the Redarc BCDC charger.
@@Safiery Hello Bruce, sorry Mate I have another question, can you please tell me what shunt you have in this system. Am I able to add an Enerdrive ePro or Victron 712 monitor on the dash? Thank you.
Yes, it uses wifi to access the Black Bridge. What appears on the Black Bridge Screen appears on the phone. Coming this year is the remote access feature over the internet. This is the feature that makes a big difference and we have it with Victron. We have found little utility for having a Smartphone locally. Plus the Black Bridge has dedicated buttons which I insisted on in the design. Its easier on the brain to just touch the button than use a soft screen or smartphone.
@@Safiery appreciate your response, I would argue that in a Off-road Camper environment with space issues coupled with participants who have mobility issues there is great utility in not having to access a panel or a button . A smartphone integration allows control of system's (lights, pumps, HWS, AV etc) without having to navigate to a control panel.
@@johnerren4720 Then go for it John, this will do that. There is a science to User Interfaces depending on (menu) depth of information required. The best practice for ease of use is 1) One touch - use a button 2) Two level - use a Smartphone/smart display 3) Three level - use voice.
