Buying Guide

While some like to unplug when they’re off-grid, others like to remain connected from the campsite. With today's technology, power in the caravan park is becoming more of a common consideration.

Solar

As well as sending Aussie temperatures to severe heights, the sun’s energy can be converted to power via solar panels, capable of recharging flat batteries out bush. These are available in portable formats from Goal Zero, as well as larger units from both Companion and Dometic.

Power

Outback power can be retrieved from a car battery, or even an auxiliary battery beneath your bonnet. Given such aren’t always the most convenient options, a portable power pack from Companion or Dometic often lends itself better.
These are portable versions of the batteries found in a 4WD, easily transported from backyard to outback. Equipped with cigarette, USB, Anderson and other inputs, they suit just about any device.
