Hi, my name is Kuba and I'm new to the forum – I'd like to take this opportunity to say hello :)

I'm picking up my GC 600, version 2025, in mid-September.
I've been considering GC power solutions for a while. Assuming I don't want to void my warranty (drilling the roof, etc.), I concluded that a simple way to ensure a lot of energy is to integrate the GC 600 system with a high-capacity docking station. My choice fell on the ECO FLOE Dela 3 pro – the newest and most powerful from the ECO FLOW range.
I've contacted many suppliers of electric solutions for campers, but they were usually expensive and time-consuming. I found a module offered by Grandcali (https://www.grandcali.com/en/lets-talk-about-electricity) and it seems like a great solution. I bought the station yesterday and plan to place an order with Grandcali any day now. My question is, has anyone used this solution? It seems brilliant in its simplicity. After purchasing foldable solar panels, the solution seems economical, sensible, and SIMPLE. Is this true? Or is this just the impression of someone who doesn't have daily experience with campers?

Let me know, what u think about this solution- pls.

Best Regard

Many of use power banks for camping, but there is a huge difference between the dc/dc charges that give upto 800w while driving and a 12v plug in that yields around 96w.

I can't quite make out what the Grandcali website uses as it's in German, but there are many searchable threads on this. The foldable solar panels used when stationary are a great idea. We do this all the time.
 
Hi, thanks for your reply. The solution offered by GrandCali seems to be the only ready-made solution on the market – maybe I'm wrong? I'd love to learn about other solutions that are as simple as this. You plug their module into the GC system and connect it to the Charging Station. From then on, you can use all 230V, 12V, and other outlets, using the energy stored by the stations. You can charge the station however you like – it's integrated with the GC, so you can charge after connecting your car to a power source. Regards

You can select English on the site.

But you can do this with ANY power bank large enough to support the wattage draw - no wiring required.
 
thank you.

I know that any charging station model is possible – that's obvious – this particular one is within my budget, and I managed to buy it at an attractive price.

I also know that I can carry everything with me and simply connect the charging station to the car.

I was looking for a solution that would easily integrate the station with the GC without the need for long cables and extension cords.
 
The Grandcali solution is an easy way to connect a power bank into the grand cali electrical system. A lot of people have wired their own system using guides from GordonH which allows simple switching over between mains hook up and power bank power to your sockets. I have recently fitted an automatic system I have made myself but haven’t posted about it yet as van in dealers for some work. kabapl if your not on the UK facebook i suggest joining and looking at the files section where there’s some great guides. The solution Grandcali offer will make it easy to integrate the power bank but if you have any technical knowledge it’s relatively straight forward to do your own connection with some relatively cheap components.
As mentioned above the biggest issue is charging the power bank and again there are a few options, cigarette socket low power, 15A mod to allow around 200W or the ecoflow alternator units.
 
Hi, thank you very much for the information you provided—it's very helpful. I'd like to ask if the solution you're describing allows you to connect a charging station to the GC system so that it's an integral part of the car's system? Or, for example, if I'm charging the car with a cable at a campsite, will I also be charging the charging station? No, unfortunately, I don't have any technical knowledge of electronics, but I could ask a friend for help. If I can, please provide a Facebook link ;)
Best regards

firstly here the face book group you can join:


The system offered by Grandcali will be a good option for you if you have no technical knowledge. From my understanding it connects to the wago sockets/plugs of the grand cali and then has the connectors to plug straight into the ecoflow power bank. One important note (I may be wrong) but don’t think this solution charges the GC’s leisure battery, it is there to supply power to the mains sockets and make switching between the hook up and ecoflow simply. It will also charge the eco flow when you are on hook up.

In terms of the systems described on facebook GordonH has created guides for making a switch over system that also plugs into the GC’s wago sockets/plugs. This allows flicking a switch to connect the ecoflow output 240V to the GC’s 240V sockets. If you want to charge the GC’s leisure battery from the Ecoflow there are other options too but all really need bit of technical knowledge.

There are two ways to connect the wago plugs one is to only supply power to the sockets the other also supply’s power to the leisure battery charger, this is not very efficient as you are converting from DC to AC then the battery charger is converting back to DC.

Hope this makes sense and doesn’t cause you more confusion!
