Hi all
After some time away from caravanning I am returning next year, new van ordered and sites booked.
I have a PHEV and was wondering do the owners of CL allow you to charge via the output on the caravan. This is the way I see it. I can reduce the charge rate to 10 amp, therefore the car would be able to charge overnight from a 16 amp post, if I am not using the heating or an electric kettle etc. The car has a 13KWH battery however it will only ever discharge to a level that a full charge is 10KWH.
So whilst in theory I think it is possible, in practice can it be done. I would of course ask the CL owner first and I would pay for the electricity that my car has used, as I appreciate they set the fee's without taking this into account.
Anyone any experience.
