Everything I Wish I Knew Before Buying a Slide-On Camper
If an air-conditioner is to be fitted to the unit, then the two tanks need to be positioned beside each other so the air-conditioner can be fitted above them. If a storage well area is located under the table, then two cigarette lighter type sockets would be attached to the front wall of this well. This is a convenient position to plug-in an inverter which would convert 12 Volt into 240 Volt for the use of a computer/TV which might also be stored in this location. The other socket could be used to charge a phone with a charging device that would normally fit into a cigarette lighter in the vehicle. Another 12 Volt cigarette lighter type socket is located outside the slide on beside the top of the stairs on the driver’s side.
With heaps of options available, our slide on campers can be provided as a shell ready for a DIY project or fully complete and ready to hit the road. Crafted with aluminium, Luna Ute Pod's construction not only redefines strength but also slide in campers sheds weight, enabling you to carry more on your adventures. Far superior to traditional fibreglass, this lightweight yet robust build empowers you to venture further and immerse yourself in the great outdoors like never before.
These tubes are prevented from rotating by another RHS tube welded to them on the underside. This stainless steel part is used in the attachment of the slide on to the vehicle. It can also have a plate welded onto it which will locate the slide-on centrally over the tray.
Having a hot water system operated by 240 V could be advantageous for people with a generator or if mains power was available. The inserts fill the space between the two beds so that the mattresses can be turned sideways and then pushed together to form a bed which is the width of a Queen-size bed. The mattresses would be 1880 mm long but when placed crossways there would be an extra 150 mm of length available, so with a pillow over the gap, the length available would be greater than that of a Queen bed. There is a range of solar panel options that can be tailored to individual needs. The MPPT searches for the most effective combination of solar cell voltage and current, ensuring that the solar and alternator function work in unison to maximise power output.
The unit has a movable divider in the box so that the relationship between the amount of freezing space and the amount of refrigerator can be varied. Items in the freezing compartment can be frozen solid while food items such as milk, tomatoes and lettuce are kept in good condition without freezing in the other compartment. Removal of the partition enables the whole box to act as either a refrigerator or a freezer, by adjusting the temperature setting. A client, who was fishing in the Northern Territory, reported having the whole box completely filled with fish fillets, to the extent that not another one could be added and that every fillet was frozen solid.
The top compartment of the toilet unit contains water for flushing and the bottom part has a very effective seal to prevent any odours escaping when the toilet is not being used. The toilet is located in an area where the refrigerator fan blows air around it and out through a vent to the exterior of the van when the Slide-on roof is raised. Experts say that to fully charge an AGM battery more than 14 V is required.
All the internal appliance work great and its dead set easy to operate. Very helpful and knowledgable throughout the purchase and delivery process, did a great job getting the pod ready and loading onto our truck. Had to get parts that were forgotten by another dealer and they were already assembled and ready to go when I arrived. On this page you can view all our offers of houses located in Karlovo.
