"My wife and I have been travelling quite extensively over the last few years in an off road camper trailer towed by a 4x4.
We generally camp in National Parks, State Forests, or free camp, where we never have access to mains power.
The longest time we have not been able to purchase any sort of fresh food was 1 month.
To enable us to be able to survive with frozen meat, fresh dairy products, fruit and vegies, was to utilise a reliable solar system and deep cycle batteries.
Jamie, at "Dynamic Solar Solutions", provided us with expert advice and a cost effective option. He fully installed two solar panels and three 120amp deep cycle batteries.
This enabled us to be completely self sufficient while running a huge 110 litre Fridge/Freezer, 3 lights, water pump, and shower every day. The real bonus was that we had cold wine and 'tinnies' every night, and this was in the middle of the Simpson Desert.
Every couple of days we would run our laptop through an inverter (supplied by DSS) which also powdered our Cry-o-vac machine for meat, poultry, etc.
On the rare occasions we went into a Caravan park we didn't need to pay for a powered site.
Because Jamie and Julie are campers themselves they know what works and is required, at a cost that won't break the bank."
