Heading off-grid doesn’t mean giving up comfort. With the right 12V upgrades, your caravan can feel just as cosy and convenient as your home—only with better views. Whether you’re away for a weekend or doing the Big Lap, these simple enhancements can transform your space into a fully self-sufficient sanctuary.
At All 12 Volt, we supply gear that’s designed for comfort, tested in Australia, and built to last. Here are our top 12V upgrades to make your caravan feel like home.
A dual battery system is the foundation of any off-grid caravan setup. It powers everything—fridges, lights, fans, and chargers—without draining your vehicle’s starter battery.
Recommended Add-ons:
ZENOT AGM or Lithium Battery
DC-DC Charger with Solar Input
Bluetooth Battery Monitor for app-based tracking
With the right battery, you’ll always know how much power you have left.
Nothing says comfort like having fresh food and cold drinks on hand. Upgrade to a ZENOT portable fridge/freezer for reliable cooling without ice or mess.
Perks:
Dual-zone options for fridge/freezer
Quiet and efficient
Perfect fit for under-benches or drawers
Swap out dim or yellow lights for energy-efficient 12V LED lighting. You’ll get:
Bright, white, or warm light options
Low power consumption
Strip lights, downlights, or motion-sensor variants
Add dimmers or remote controls for that luxury feel.
Stay cool on hot summer nights with low-draw 12V fans. They’re:
Compact and quiet
Swivelling or wall-mounted

Install multiple USB ports and Anderson plugs throughout your caravan for easy access to power wherever you are:
Beside beds and lounges

600W for small appliances
1500W+ for multiple or high-draw devices
Mount it near your battery box with switch access from inside the van.
Solar is essential for long stays off-grid. With a quality setup, you can recharge your batteries daily without starting your vehicle.

Fixed rooftop panels
Folding or blanket panels

A 200–400W system is ideal for most caravans.

You don’t need a generator or mains power to enjoy the luxuries of home. With the right 12V upgrades, your caravan can be fully functional, fully off-grid, and fully comfortable.
