This would be the most often asked question on camping groups and pages and the answers given by commenters range from sensible to downright uninformed and silly.
So I feel it’s a good time to provide intelligent information – especially as Spring is approaching and many are getting ready to install or upgrade their batteries. […]
Most modern caravans and campers have some kind of monitoring meters installed from new, but for older models, 4x4s and those installing new systems often want to be able to check how their batteries and solar chargers are performing. I often see questions posted on social media platforms like Facebook, asking about the best […]
These are difficult times and most of us aren’t using our vehicles nearly as much as we used to.

It’s been a long time, a fair bit of lost sleep but we have finally won with the Pajero rust problem. If you aren’t up with the problems, here’s a quick recap: We discovered rust at the top of the rear doors of our 2010 Pajero and soon found out it was a known […]
