For our dimmable lights, I’ve been experimenting with the Shelly Plus RGBW PM. Despite its name suggesting RGB functionality, it’s perfectly capable of controlling single-color light strips and puck lights.
Following up on the door lock automation, I learned something valuable from another forum member. There are apps/hardware that offer inching timers as short as 0.5 seconds.
One of the first upgrades we tackled was replacing the ProSine control and readout panel that had been installed above the bed, right next to the clock, generator start switch, docking light switch, and other controls.
In the bedroom where the original tube TV once lived, there’s now a flat panel display. Behind it lies a surprisingly large area perfect for housing equipment. It also has 110V outlets, making it the ideal location to mount all our network components while keeping the wiring as clean as possible.
What started as a simple plan to update a few fixtures quickly evolved into something much larger. After completing our Victron upgrades, we were left with defunct ProSine readout panels in the coach.
It was time for a bathroom update: new shower valve trim, new hardware, and a new sink faucet. The original fixtures were showing their age with tarnish and a dated style.
After going back and forth on many different wall sconce designs, NIB options, salvage options, etc., we finally settled on replacements for these two “lovely” original polished brass sconces.
We added a Victron IP22 Blue Smart Charger to keep the chassis batteries topped up. It’s Bluetooth-enabled, so you can monitor and configure it through the VictronConnect app. Downside: no external data cable, so there’s no “official” way to tie it into the Cerbo.
