Hi Scott and Julie, love your videos. We own the same size van but in a pop top. You do a lot of off grid camping these days. Would you mind sharing your solar, battery and inverter aetup.

Hey Wayne thanks for the support For the solar we just have 2x160 watt panels that came with the van Batteries are 2x100 amp lithium sphere that also came with the van I had a 2000 watt enerdrive inverter fitted that is connected to all power points This has been working great but with using star link I feel like we could use with more solar we have also been very lucky with the weather I think with a few cloudy days we would struggle so it’s all about how we managed what we use we also have a gas fridge so that makes it easier on the batteries but if I had the choice again I would go a compressor fridge they work so much better not that we have had any trouble so far We also have a 200 amp lithium battery in the car and another 2000 watt enerdrive inverter and have used that to plug the van in and charge it up (like a big generator I guess) One last thing I added and extra dc-dc charger to the van with an Anderson plug connecting to the alternator so I charge the van while driving our longest stint with out plugging in is 20days not that we needed to it just work out that way

What caused you to leave early ? We are planning a trip to that area in our campervan is it 4wd only ?
@lippyzadventures
@lippyzadventures 9 ай бұрын
We left because I got sick 🤒 I think you should be fine in the campervan if you just take it easy most of the road is just gravel and a couple of small creek crossings (not very ruff at the time we were there) On wiki camps is the number of the lady who runs the property if you call her she should be able to tell you if the water is to high but I think it should be fine
