How Custom Designed Electrics Helped Convert A Courier Van Into A Comfy Off-Grid Camper
Would you like to live off-grid for multiple days in your campervan and still have enough power to enjoy your favourite comforts of home?
Does being self-contained in remote idyllic settings, without having to plug in, sound like freedom to you?
It does for Northlanders, Lloyd and Laura Jerome. They transformed a courier van into a comfy customised campervan that allows them to travel unplugged for at least three days at a time – with unhindered TV viewing, hot water and heating.
Park Wherever You Want Without Having to Plug In
Lloyd `absolutely’ recommends contacting Motorhome Solar if you want to travel unplugged in comfort.
