I just love that van, congratulations.
Thank you for that it has been a long time in the making, We are so happy to release it to the market.
good looking van and listening to customer experience and making changes accordingly is encouraging for future customers. Suggest Microwave is placed below the bench top and replaced with a multifunction cooker something that may well be an option in any case. pity you are not east coast 😐
Thanks for the feedback. The microwave placement has also been a big question on where to put it. We have designed one for a customer with no oven or stove. Induction cook top. Then, below is a large cupboard or a multi cooker.
We have a few customers over the East Coast. Being our own brand with no middle man, we can look after customers better. As I have said in other videos. That's my name on the brand, and I will back it.
Only thing we picked up on is the electrics under the mattress ,I wouldn't feel safe ,what if it shorts and causes the mattress and then can to catch alight ? Better placement may be needed like possibly under floor as your enter caravan! And as we get closer to 60,this may be a van we come to W.A to look at buying ,as well be living in it full-time
I love feedback. The hard part with electronics is keeping them as close as possible to the batteries outside while keeping the electronics inside for waterproof and dust proof.
Between redarc and ourselves, we have so many safety features built in that you don't have to worry.
Nice looking van. My main concern is the underslung batteries and what happens to them during deeper creek crossings. Water is not their friend and one good dunking will cost thousands. Tail lights look very vulnerable and are too low. They may rip off during a steep departure angle. I'm assuming the water heating is gas, but what about the heating the van itself ? Is diesel an option for both ? Is that a DRS system in front of the extractor ? Is there an option for full flat floor ?
Steeevo, Thanks for your feedback. I will answer each question for you below.
1. The batteries are waterproof and the BMS built in will protect them from a water crossing. We mount the Redarc shunt inside the van. Hope this makes sense.
2. Taillights to bottom of plate are 800mm heigh with the bumper bar arm being the lowest point to protect the lights. No problems so far.
3. Water heater is gas electric. With the large battery system and 100-amp charger you can run the reverse cycle air conditioner for heating and cooling now.
4. Diesel is still an option.
5. Yes, DRS are standard in all our off-road vans and works really well.
6. Yes, we are working on a new flat floor model now.
Hope this helps.
Regards
Michael Cameron
You forgot to mention the most obvious fact of all … what’s the price for the exact van you’ve shown?? Thanks

@@CameronCaravans Thank you. $130,000.
Geez the tare weight is high for a composite.
Yes we have over engineered this. We put so many new features in it. We are working on a diet without compromising on strength. Watch this space?
I've never seen such a huge stuff up as under the bed.
Why would put the inverter on the floor, taking all the space you have.
No ever seen to think how you can can that space correctly
The quick answer is to 0:04 keep the inverter as close to the batteries as possible just under the floor. We are working with redarc on a new custom backboard for under the bed to mount everything on. In the meantime we have developed a large drawer under the bed offset from the inverter to be able to pull out in the walkway area.
Hope this answers your question on why we put it there.
What's internal roof height please?
2030mm/6'8" My height 😊
