I see Billozz hasn't been on in the last few days so hasn't seen Ian Sheppards really informative post or any afterwards.

Shame really. I wonder if he did get his Hotbox working?

I’m sure he’ll be on at some point to thank everyone for their input.
It could be a weekend fix for him?  He may be using it cold until he has time. I know he runs 3 vans is busy and is a decent bloke

Give it time just having it in the back of the van in a metal container you can’t escape the stink.

According to your definition only fools lead the way and the wise looks to the fool.

Franky get them to come to you and fit a socket in the side of the van m8 it’s so much easier,I come home plug mine in and forget about it if I think about it before bed I turn it off in the garage and then just unplug in the morning before I go to work. You don’t need to go anywhere near the battery box at all m8.

You can get them to put the socket anywhere on the van,mines at head height just back from the drivers door which is ideal for me.
It was separate but again well worth the money,I think it was about 1200 on top of the heater.
