I can't wait for June to rock up so we can see this bloody thing!
I
run my standard battery,plus a 100 Ah Deep cycle & a Waeco Outback.
These
run okay whilst travelling 3 - 5 hours @ day, but when I want to stop for a while, I bring out a 20 watt BP Solarex Panel & set it up on a low tripod, it just sort of copes.
This unit sounds good, although it depends really upon it's gas usage.
I am confused.......... 1 litre of gas = how much in kilograms?
It's not just the cost of the gas, but also it's cubic capacity for say a 5 day extended trip, as against buying another deep cycle battery.
Everyones needs are different, mine are predominately 3 - 4 day weekends, most of which I am driving and setting up camp at a different location each night. This Energy Cell would be of no use to me here. With my current set up I can go for 3 days before charging.
But at the end of the day....... a man has to have his toys!!!!!!!
I could always tell the minister of finance that this would be a good investment if terroists get to our power supply .......... oops....... they already have......... they call them selves AGL, Origin & TXU!!!!
