Batteries

Forumites will be looking for a bit more info I suggest - what appliances will you be running should you not be in a caravan park ? How long might you be in such situations ?

Yep. Very handy. Or have a second battery fitted. You may be staying at van parks, but extra 12 volt backup lets you have long stops beside the road and run equipment without flattening main battery. Have fun!

We bought a battery for our van. It gives us the freedom to camp anywhere if, for some reason, we can't or don't want to overnight in a caravan park. A few nights without CP fees will soon pay for the battery.

I put dual batteries in the cruiser and hooked the 12v from the battery to the van 2v inlet .

left all the other lights and indicators , brakes as normal

works for me

It cost me about half to have the dual battery set up in the car, including the battery

I used the "all about 12V " people in Auburn NSW , just off Parramatta road

it uses a smart relay , plus a lot of wires etc ,that when your car battery is charged it then charges your 2nd battery

all about 12v sells the cable and fittings and crimps them free for you , also has a very clean circuit diagram

worked for me

Another benefet is you have a battery you can jump start your car from if you car battery goes flat
