Your caravan’s water tanks are the difference between a comfortable week off-grid and a dash to the nearest servo for bottled water. Most vans carry between 80 and 200 litres of fresh water across one or two tanks, and how you fill, drain and clean those tanks directly affects the quality of what comes out […]

Staying connected on the road is no longer a luxury. If you’re working remotely, running a business, banking online, keeping up with grandkids on video calls, or just want reliable navigation and weather updates, you need a plan that works when Telstra towers are 200km away. Australia is enormous and mostly empty, so what works […]

A generator does most of its work through the accessories you bolt on around it. The right lead lets you run power from the boot to the van without draping cables across a wet campsite. A proper cover keeps dust out of the intake and rain off the panel. A ventilated box lets you run […]

A generator on its own only gets you halfway. To run it safely, quietly and legally around Australia, you need the right leads to carry the power, a cover to keep it dry and dust-free, and somewhere to store or run it that doesn’t cook your storage box or drive your neighbours mad. Skip the […]

A generator is only as useful as the gear you run alongside it. Buy the wrong lead and you’ll trip the safety cutout on your Honda every time the aircon kicks in. Skip a proper cover and you’ll be pulling a wet, corroded unit out of the ute at the next free camp. And without […]

A generator is only as useful as the gear you run it with. The right lead lets you park the genny well away from your caravan so you’re not listening to it drone all evening. A decent cover keeps it dry when the weather turns. A proper box lets you run it in the rain […]

A generator is only half the setup. The leads, covers, storage boxes and connectors you pair with it decide whether your power is safe, quiet, weatherproof and legal to run. Get these accessories wrong and you’ll be running a fire risk off the tailgate, tripping over undersized cords, or watching your $1,500 inverter generator get […]

A generator is only as useful as the gear you run alongside it. The right lead lets you park the generator away from your caravan door. A proper cover keeps it running in the rain. A good box quietens it down and stops it walking off when you’re not looking. Get these three things sorted […]

Cooking outside is one of the real pleasures of life on the road. Instead of steaming up a tiny caravan kitchen, you set up under the awning, throw a couple of snags on the plate, and watch the sun drop over a free camp. The gear you choose makes the difference between a smooth cook-up […]

Bunks are where the magic happens on a big lap, or where it falls apart at 2am when a kid rolls off the top, gets cold, or can’t get comfortable. The bunk itself came with your van. What you put in it, and how you set it up, makes the difference between kids who sleep […]
