Kitchen has SMEG dual gas burners, and a nice radio with two speakers, cd player to listen to some tunes whilst preparing a meal. ![]() The BMS 30 gives us a heap of options - solar, car charge, mains and we keep it plugged when stored to keep the batteries at their optimum as the BMS 30 has the option to go Touring mode or Storage Mode. For us, we are all about off-road and off-grid, so we typically let the water heat up as we are touring and heating from the Anderson plug which is running from the car. It folds out quick with the main section so an overnighter isn't much trouble and you have a whole heap of other canvas attachments and poles for those longer stays.įreshwater is stored underneath, which is also plugged into a hot electric shower which can run off the 12v, or plugin at a caravan park. This camper is quick to set up, even being a soft floor this attracted us to buy as the tare mass is only 850KG, yet we still get the comfort of a spring Queen mattress. We have 2 young kids so speed of set up is everything. You definitely get what you pay for here. Never had a leak and we have endured torrential rain and storms whilst all feeling safe and dry. I called OZ hitch not so long ago and they also have a service kit ready to go for the hitch and a very reasonable price to keep it top-notch. This is what I mean when we can rely on all the companies that supplied the parts. Redarc sent a new unit right away express post which solved the problem. We recently had an issue with the BMS 30 control screen that plugs into the BMS by CAT cable, it wasn't showing anything on the screen, only lit up. I feel comfortable knowing that if anything goes wrong I know each individual manufacturer is there to support. These rigs retailed for $30,000 new and I see why as all the parts would have cost the manufacturer a mint and probably would have struggled to post a profit with all the cheap Chinese options out there. Even the hitch is OZ Hitch true off-road hitch and super easy to attach they are based in Adelaide. It boasts ALKO, ARB 60Ltr Fridge, Redarc BMS30 and Redark 1500w Sine Wave Inverter, dual 130 AH GIANT Batteries from QLD, Thick Australian Canvas, Boat R. It probably needs a good clean right now and going to take it North now to Ningaloo where I hope to update this review with some photos. I'm writing this review six years on since owning this camper trailer and it's still amazingly good. When these guys decided to build a camper, they thought about every Australian based company and manufacturer they could cram into this neat little package.
