Power To Caravan Around Australia
Caravan Off Grid From Outback To Ocean With An Outech Off Grid Power System
Preparing to travel around Australia in a caravan with your young family takes time and preparation, and having an adequate caravan power system would have to be one of the most important things to get right. The last thing any family wants is rotten food, warm bevvies and a coffee machine that is useless because of an underperforming and inadequate onboard caravan power setup.
This Viscount Caravan is the pride and joy of young Perth family of 5, The Newbs’. To date, The Newbs’ have lived for weekend camping trips. They occasionally stay at caravan parks but prefer to camp off grid where there is no mains power, it is less crowded and closer to nature.
For the Newbs’, weekend free camping has come with many learnings while preparing for their lap of Oz. Getting an insight of their power usage has given them a clear understanding of the short falls in their existing batteries and solar power setup. The Newbs’ family came to Outech knowing the frustrations and inconvenience of constantly micromanaging their caravan power and worrying about flat batteries. Having a power system with the capacity to provide the comforts of home meant upgrading the caravans’ existing 12-volt power system to suit their family needs to enjoy their lap around Australia.
During our discovery meeting the Newbs’ family made it clear - they did not want to be restricted to staying at caravan parks only. And they did not want to run out of power when camping off grid at free camps or at our national parks.
They wanted enough power to run their 240-volt appliances, especially their air conditioner, microwave, and coffee machine while free camping!
As a result, Outech Offgrid designed and installed a 12 volt and 240 volt caravan power system to meet the Newbs’ power usage based on the family’s power used and individual needs. The upgrade power system will run the Newbs’ home appliances when staying at caravan parks and when camping for off grid for extended periods.
Outech OffGrid have given this family the POWER to enjoy caravanning with the comforts from home.

To stay at these more remote campgrounds your caravan will need to have off grid power such as solar panels and adequate 12 volt batteries. Note, less and less camp grounds allow the use of generators.
