goodday guys
does anybody know the what the low voltage cutout value is on a waeco and is it adjustable
i believe the voltage is 10.4v in my fridge in the van and am trying to find out if it is the same for the cf80 as i have stuffed my 2nd battery in 2.5 years and according to century i shouldnt get below 11.0v in a deep cycle battery as they dont recover properly once they have been flattened
i cant find my book for the fridge(6 yrs old )and i have tried waeco site
where can i get an adjustable low voltage cutout i tried tricky dickies in morwell 3 kids working there bloody useless

They shouldn't get down to 10.4, the battery is dead flat at that stage.
Most of the fridges I know of and own/owned cut out around 11.5 volts.
Don't know specifically about the Waecos though.

Hi Steve,
I bought a low voltage cutout device from Ebay to get around this hassle. Cost about $20 if I recall.

Try this link, scroll down to the bottom of the PDF, and you will find a circuit diagram, showing what pins to connect to on the compressor to change cut out voltages and also operate a condenser fan.
