What We’d Do If We Were Touring Australia for 6 Months — Power Setup Edition

If we were packing our gear, loading the van, and heading off for six months around Australia, here’s the power system we’d want in our rig.

This setup is designed for maximum reliability, flexibility, and off-grid capability. Whether you’re working remotely, running creature comforts, or just staying self-sufficient at free camps, it covers all the bases.

 

🔋 200Ah+ Lithium Battery Bank

Lithium gives you the most usable capacity, fast charging, and longer lifespan than AGM. Two 100Ah lithiums or a custom-built 200Ah unit is ideal. At Ozzy, we use Bluetooth-enabled BMS systems and install with adequate fusing and ventilation.

 

40A–50A DC-DC Charger with Dual Solar Input

A Redarc or Victron DC-DC unit will safely charge lithium from your alternator and solar panels. Dual input models allow roof solar + portable at the same time, great for shaded campsites.

 

☀️ 400–600W Roof-Mounted Solar Panels + 200W Blanket

Roof panels keep charging while you drive. Portable blankets let you chase the sun if your van’s parked in shade. We wire both into an MPPT solar controller with smart monitoring.

 

🧠 Victron SmartShunt or Cerbo GX Monitoring

Real-time visibility into voltage, SOC, input, and output gives you peace of mind. We configure alerts and walk you through how to read and understand the system.

 

🔌 Victron 2000W Inverter

Run your microwave, coffee machine, laptop, or air fryer off-grid. Pure sine wave power is safe for electronics. Ozzy installs these with AC transfer switching, RCD breakers, and clean mounting.

 

🔋 Power Points and USBs

We install outlets where you’ll actually use them — fridge slides, bedsides, outside kitchens. Fast-charging USBs, Engel sockets, grey and red Andersons.

 

The Ozzy Advantage

All wiring is neat, labelled, oversized, and protected. The system is modular and built for future upgrades. It’s tested under load and designed to thrive in real touring conditions.

Because if we were touring for 6 months, we’d want our system built like this — and that’s exactly how we build yours.
