BCDC1240D (IF OPTIONED)
If optioned your H16 will be fitted with a BDC1240D and comes with an additional
solar panel.
• Because of the additional “BCDC1240D” 40A charger, the screen will sometimes show
that the load is charging the batteries. This is fine and normal when adding a second
charger to the BMS30, as the H16 has in its setup. This is the extra charge coming from
the second charger. In the below image, “60A in” is coming in through the load, which
would normally read “5A out”
When charging a battery, make sure the settings at the Battery Setup menu on the Display are
correct for the type of battery under charge. Charging a battery with the wrong profile may
cause the Battery Charger to indicate a fault or give misleading results and cause injury to
persons, damage to the Battery Charger and/or property.
SOLAR PANELS
Click for REDARC Solar Panel User Manual
The H16 is fitted with 2 x 180W REDARC Solar Panels. For safety information and manufacturer
instructions of the Solar Panels please refer to relevant REDARC User Manual.
In perfect conditions the solar panels should charge approximately 100ah of battery per day.
However, factors that influence this are:
• How clean the panels are - dust, bird droppings, etc. can make a significant difference
• Cloud or smoke haze
• Shade under a tree
• Time and place. The angle of the sun and length of day
Sustainable power supply can be achieved by constant monitoring of the power usage and
solar replenishment each day.
NOTE: There is an Anderson plug to connect an additional portable solar panel located on the
driver side ahead of the axle on the battery box or above the wheel arch on later models.
Extra portable solar panels are available for purchase through Cub Campers if requested.
