Camp Trailer Project

[Johno]

I love camping and I have alot of camping gear. Sometimes its a pain in the ass to load up the car with tent, gas bottles, lights, gazebo, camp kitchen, stove, BBQ, poles.... Etc. So... I bought myself a brand new 6x4 tradesman trailer. It has the lift top lids with gas lifters. I was going to store all my camping stuff in there and have it ready for whenever i want to go camping.

 

Now I know this is no Corolla but I thought it would be a good chance to show you all some of my plans I have for this trailer. I bought the trailer today and I'm going to source most parts off ebay. I like camping with just a swag, slab of cans and small fire and totally roughing it but i also enjoy all the flash gizmo's and gadgets so this is why i want to design this camp trailer.

 

I was going to get a couple of 12v Deep Cycle 100ah (amp hour) batteries and bolt them in the trailer. From this I was going to install a cheap CD player with some marine speakers for music, a 12v fluro light, a 100 litre water tank with a 12v water pump connected to a tap on the outside. Also maybe a 1500watt sign wave inverter for 240v power. I have a small 800w camping generator that i use for lights and charging the batteries so i could use that to charge the deep cycle batteries.

 

I will post up pics very soon. :(

Any idea's or suggestions you might have would be great to know.

 

Cheers, Johno :P
