Jonno, owner of Coral Coast Caravan Park in Carnarvon Western Australia has seen plenty examples of electrical work in caravans, campers and 4WD 🙄, and we are proud to claim Jonno a repeat customer and a bloody great bloke.
Choosing a 4WD vehicle is only the first step when looking to get into all that Australian off-road adventures have to offer. Jono started out with a Holden Colorado Dual Cab Ute, and in this setup Outech OffGrid built a portable battery box for his camping setup. Before long Jon upgraded to a 200 Series Toyota LandCruiser, so we integrated the electrical components from his portable power bank into his new Cruiser and added accessories and modifications to suit personal style of touring.
Let’s take a look at the specs on Jonno’s latest ‘man toy’.

We know that for each 4WD vehicle owner there’s a different setup that suits them and their style of touring and based on what they’re wanting to power. From wagons to dual cabs, drawer systems to roof racks, we’ve seen hundreds of different modifications, making each rig look truly unique. One modification many people do agree on though is that, if you’re looking to turn your 4x4 into a true off grid touring beast, having an Outech OffGrid Battery System is crucial because we build a camping battery system that not only keeps your batteries charged, it allows you to see exactly what your state of charge is and your input and output ratings, so you can enjoy more time camping and less time managing your power system.
All electrical accessories, electrical fit-out and electrical installation completed by Outech OffGrid Power Solutions, 4WD vehicle drawer system also fitted by Outech.
