If you’re passionate about 4WD adventures in the Aussie outback, you know that gear makes the difference. Whether you’re tackling rugged terrain, camping off-grid, or preparing for recovery situations, upgrading your rig with the right 12V tech can improve safety, comfort, and independence.
At All 12 Volt, we’ve worked alongside weekend warriors and hardcore off-roaders to find the best tech upgrades that actually work—gear tested in real-world Australian conditions.
Here are our top picks for essential tech upgrades for your 4WD setup.
A dual battery system is the foundation of any touring 4WD. It powers your fridge, lights, and devices—without draining your starter battery.
✅ Combine it with a DC-DC charger for efficient charging on the move
✅ Power 12V gear, even when your engine’s off
✅ Peace of mind when camping remotely
Take control of your power with a smart battery box. The right one acts as a portable power hub, featuring:
USB ports & DC outlets
LED voltmeters or Bluetooth monitoring
Anderson plug inputs for solar
Pair with a ZENOT deep-cycle battery and you’re off-grid ready.
Forget soggy eskies and ice refills. A 12V fridge is a must-have for serious 4WDers. ZENOT fridges offer:
Efficient cooling
Compact design
Rugged casings for bumpy roads
Minimal battery draw
Stay powered and keep your tucker cold no matter how remote your camp is.
Solar panels let you top up your battery while you explore. Fold-out panels or solar blankets are lightweight and easy to deploy, making them ideal for:
Extended stays
Campsites with partial shade
Reducing your generator use
Don’t forget a quality solar charge controller to protect your battery.
Whether you’re driving at dusk or setting up camp after dark, LED lighting is a must. Our range of 12V LED bars and pods feature:
High lumen output
Dust & waterproof housings
Easy install with plug-and-play kits
