The UK's first Kia PV5 Leisure Electric System in collaboration with Rayne Automotive.
 
A pre-wired power board built for the electric campervan era. Draws power from the PV5's V2L port, your mains hook-up, and a buffer battery — no split charge required.
 
How it works — three power sources, one board
 
The board accepts power from three sources. Transfer switches select the active source automatically:
 
1. V2L port
Your traction battery becomes your leisure power supply. Connect the V2L output and the board converts it to clean 12V DC and 240V AC for your conversion. You're drawing from the biggest battery your van already carries.
 
2. Mains hook-up
Connect to site power at a campsite and the board runs exactly like a conventional conversion: powering your system and charging the buffer battery.
 
3, Buffer batteryUsually a 100Ah lithium — carries the system when V2L isn't running and there's no hook-up. Fridge, lights and devices stay on overnight without touching your driving range, and without leaving the van in camping mode whilst you're out on a hike.
 
What's on the board
 
Power supplies — 12V IP22 30A Victron charger/power supply
Consumer units — 12-way 12V fuse distribution and 240V protection via 3 × 16A narrow RCBOs with Powercon easy-fit plugs
Transfer switch — Victron Filax automatic source selection between V2L, hook-up and buffer battery
Pre-wired and labelled — arrives fully assembled and tested. Mount it, connect your loads, and it works — the same quick-install philosophy as our full power board range

The problem with EV campervan electrics
 
Every conventional campervan electrical system starts from the same assumption: an alternator charges a leisure battery while you drive. Split charge is the foundation of the entire playbook.Electric vans broke that. No conventional alternator, no split charge — and until now, no clear answer. Search any van conversion forum and you'll find the same thread: "how do you fit a leisure battery in an electric van?" Guesswork everywhere, solutions nowhere.The Kia PV5 answers the question differently. It has a V2L (Vehicle-to-Load) port that outputs electricity directly from its traction battery — a 71.2kWh energy reserve on the Long Range model, more than any leisure battery on the market.The Rayne PV5 board is built around exactly that.
