Hi Ross,
X2 on your positive comments about your Evakool fridge.
Ihave the 80l white fibreglass one and couldn't be happier with it.
It's seen a lot of Australia and never given any trouble.
I like the full use of the cabinet(no lost space to the compressor), and with the compressor on the outside its much easier to keep space around it for the air flow.
Here is a pic of the slide I made.
Cheers Gavin
That is quite a setup you have there, I like the spare wheel carriers

Outa debt on the solar panels. lol. Now time to hunt round for a regulator and probably will go with a 3rd battery/holder under the pod.
95lt fridge and all the other fruit to run off the 2nd battery is a bit too much I think.
Stay tuned for the next update.

Good stuff mate, welcome to the solar generation.
Watch out there's a Poo "Yota" lurking in the shadows !

I love Gavin's fridge slide (just above this thread), but would prefer a fridge to slide in/out length ways. I really need 1/2 - 23rds of my pod to be for sleeping space. Our double bed inner spring fits in just nice, and I'd prefer that than my swag - occasionally of course. I'm not interested in towing a trailer, except for local trips when I need to cart around wood, and basically for convenience sake, ie, lift a lid on the box in the trailer, instead of pulling everything out of the truck, then having to put it back.
When I'm buy myself I can rough it, but the missus likes a creature comfort (as well as my comfort). lol

Mod time again......
Getting serious with camping now and got a quote for a 3 metre annex put on the left hand side, so I can drive out, drive in.
It's gunna be zipped onto the top, so when I wanna wheel or fish, I unzip, take off, and on my return, berth it like a ship.
Mozzie net and a window will be a standard feature.
