Is your dream to have a caravan that can go fully off grid but the price tag makes you shiver?

This was exactly the case for Gary and Sue, long time customers of ours. They both will be retiring in a few short years and want to do the big loop with the freedom to free camp off grid.

We have set up a plan for them to slowly convert the caravan while still being able to use it for short trips on long weekends and the holidays. Our plan means that by the time they have retired they will have converted to their dream power solution and have the freedom to go off grid.

By doing this they are able to spread the cost of the build over a couple of years, still have full use of the caravan and also minimize down time. A very smart option if you ask me!

This first stage of upgrades included fresh new solar (600w with the ability to expand) and a shunt with battery monitor for more accurate and precise information about the health of their batteries.

If you are also interested about setting up a plan for your own dream power solution please contact us.

Get out and go off grid!

Nice tidy setup we have here in the back of this Y62. Customers request was to keep it cheap, compact and simple and that’s exactly what we did!

Now with the capability of running fridges, lights, compressors and even 240v appliances this vehicle is more than ready for the adventures the owner has planned for it.

Big install this weekend on a house boat. The customers goal is to eventually be able to go fully off grid and not rely on off shore power. The design of this system is in stages and stage 1 is already getting 24hrs from 2Kw of solar and 340Ah of lithium! Solar and battery capacity have been designed to be very easily added on to. With a generator addition in the later stages this goal is very achievable. As always… Get out and go off grid.

What a fun weekend installing this redarc redvision manager 30 into a great example of a 76 Landcruiser. Everything powered by the impressive Giant 340AH lithium, these batteries are all protected and managed by a bms and to top it off they are Aussie made and owned 🇦🇺 which we love here at PPS. The manager 30 system prioritises charge from the alternator or solar to achieve maximum charge rate back into this monster of a battery. The best thing is that all 12v loads are fused, switched and controlled through the push of a button on the redvision display or by the app on your phone. All in all a great install and a great system to keep this customer powered up while out on the road getting around Australia.
As always, get out and go off grid!
