The Campervan Thread

Handy with a plug and play loom.

We've acquired a 60cm or so light bar when my son scrapped a mates car. Had this thing mounted on one of those swamper style caged roof rack.

Not yet at the part time camper stage as the bed is on order. Power solution being tested. Got 100w solar panel for it.

How does it work?

What percentage of power is lost to boil say 500mls of water?

It's a travel kettle we use on hookup, but a full kettle, just short of 1l used 10% - about 80wh (this is a 800wh battery). Main use will be keeping the travel fridge on low during the day, off at night. This one comes with two camping lights.

Looks very nice. The management would not agree.
Can we be a two camper household?

That's the type of van I was thinking about then looked at the size for parking at home, and nope, just too big.

Slightly. Although getting the Jimny out must be fun
