Hi from Bendigo
« on: August 02, 2012, 11:51:09 PM »
Hi everyone,

Just dropped by to say g'day! Looking forward to going through a lot of threads on here  ;D ;D

My girlfriend and I have just purchased an Oztrail camper tent, and this weekend we will be buying a trailer to suit with any luck. We couldn't go past the runout price on the tent, and being new to all this, we aren't flush with funds. Now comes the fun(!) job of fitting the tent onto the trailer.....better warm up the vocal cords for some major swearing hehe.

Looking forward to learning a lot off the brain pool here! I hope to wire a battery and assorted 12v fittings into the trailer, and some sort of inverter, as my darling needs a CPAP machine at night, and I don't want to be always stuck in caravan parks, so am looking forward to seeing what I can learn!

Ok all, hope to see everyone around here soon!

Cheers,
Stew

G'day Stew,

To MySwag.
There is some great info here to help you with your camper build up & there are some fantastic trip reports to wet your appetite on where to take camper.
Why not start a thread in the My Camper Trailer Build. This will help with putting it all together. There would be others that use a CPAP, I'm sure they will be able to help in setting that up.
Hope you enjoy your time here.
Happy & Safe travels.
 :cheers:

G'day & Welcome.

A new build up, how exciting. There are quite a few members who run CPAP machines, in fact it might be worth a thread of its own, so here it is:
The CPAP thread

There are plenty of knowledgable folks on here when it comes to 12V, and some who can provide all the fittings at excellent prices.
