Oops yes it's the £90 one. Had mine over a year now and not one problem and have never had to charge my battery.

Cheers.
How many litres and miles do you do a day, Chris?

Is it easy to install?

Average 300-400 litres a day.  3 days a week I'm local within a 5 mile radius, 2 days a week I work in another town which is about 10 miles away.
There was one occasion where I had the dreaded low battery indicator flashing so I kept the van running pretty much all day and it was nearly fully charged by the end of the day.

Yes it was very easy to install. Like you I originally got one off fleabay that had terrible instructions and the relay itself wasnt charging the battery quick enough.
The pure freedom one has very simple instructions, took me an hour to fit and charges 0.1 volts every minute or so.

Thanks. I'll persevere with this one atm, as I've got it but I'm not very patient.
If it ends up getting on my thruppennies it'll be launched pretty sharpish.

Thanks for your help.

Went to do some windows today but pump wouldn't work ,my flow meter keeps saying a dead end is detected but there doesn't appear to be any ,so i bypassed the pump controller and the pump started working only thing is you use a lot of water ,any ideas on how to cure the problem

If the control is displaying DE The control thinks flow has been stopped. I would suggest that either calibration is to low and suggest you recalibrate the controller. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9kKoskb7l7c&index=24&list=PLUpfSwT7wIhfyiM-jbIDJPoH0UlNQZL9y

Or there may be a blockage restricting flow.

Running no controller can mean you will use a lot more water, System pressure is higher and the pump will draw more current from the battery. a Controller does provide other features that are designed to manage the battery and protect the system

just to put another possibility your way, this happened to me , was showing de on the controller, wired direct to the battery and the pump worked but could hear a squeecky noise and it turns out the bearing in the pump were on the way out to which it siezed after 5 mins directly wired to the battery
