How do I monitor my electricity usage in my campervan when using the solar panel?

If you are using the PV Logic Pro solar panels that we fit to CamperKing campervans, this can be monitored using the PVMobileSuite app.

PVMobileSuite-2

PVMobileSuite-1

Available for Android and iOS devices, the PVMobileSuite app uses your device's Bluetooth connectivity to connect to your solar panel controller and your leisure battery.  This will allow you to keep an eye on your leisure battery and the charge rate coming in from the panel.

Things to be aware of 

In most new CamperKing campervans with a solar panel fitted, you will only have one leisure battery unless you have opted to have a second fitted, or you had your solar panel fitted before October 2021.

If you have two leisure batteries installed in your campervan, it should be noted that only one of these may initially show in the PV Logic app. Battery one will always be charged until it is full and then battery two will be charged. 

Your PV Logic Pro solar panel will only charge your leisure battery unless you have specifically requested that it is also wired up to charge your van battery too. If you would like to have your wiring set up changed, please contact service@camperking.co.uk

If you don't already have a solar panel on your campervan, this is something that we are able to fit for you. Find out more about campervan solar panel installation
