After over 3 weeks of trying to get a 100mm diameter hole in 10mm thick steel for the warm air exhaust – the fuel cell finally went online last week!.
Not a bad bit of kit – still need the engine when the washing machine is on as the fuel cell only delivers 9amps @ 12V – but that is done silently (so it can run overnight in residential areas).. it turns itself on when its needed to charge the 4 x 110A house batteries, which in turn keep all the on-board electrical’s working.. and run the inverter which power all the 240v sockets.. and allow phone chargers to run through the night without being woken up by the low battery alarm going off at 4am!..
Many thanks to Fuel Cell Systems for supplying the EFOY Pro 2400 Duo – and for all the pre and post sales advice!
