- G'day Legends!
In the final installment of: What I Take Camping! And the last video for a while until I get home from deployment.
In this final part of the series I cover my power, shower and refrigeration set up. The Oztrail 45Liter Fridge/Freezer. Caos Gear USB power camp shower. The Companion 44Ah power pack and the Projecta 120W solar set.
So sit back and enjoy! Don't forget to hit that thumbs up, subscribe, leave a comment and follow on Instagram @Mighty_Jimny
Tony!
A truly TREMENDOUS thank you for the music you use in your videos. I love these beautiful songs by artists I'd never heard of before but are now my favourites when on the road.
Thanks mate! Yeah I source all my music from epidemic sound. They have so many awesome local and international artists to chose from. With any luck a new video will be up in the next two weeks once I’m home from deployment.
Always good to c other people’s set ups 😀😀😀 cool music tony
great set up love the video
Thanks Becca! I’ll be doing an update to this video in the next month or so as it’s about a year old. The new set up is even better!
i love your vids keep it up mate cheers
Thanks legend!
Good clip mate. Have a look at the campboss king single swag if you’re after a stretcher swag. I use mine on an oztrail king single stretcher and it’s excellent.
Thanks for watching! I ended up going with the OZtent RS-1 king single swag and the matching stretcher. It’s waiting for me when I get back from deployment! Can’t wait to get out there with it!
@@MightyOverlander good choice
@@damienkeygan1735 half the reason is after being in the Navy for as long as I have my back is a mess. The RS-1 has a 30 second set up and folds down to a lower profile for when on the roof
@@MightyOverlander yeah I use a stretcher for the days when my back decides it’s easier to swing the legs out of the swag then try and get out and up.
@@MightyOverlander great piece of kit and I’m thoroughly enjoying mine, even without it’s stretcher option. Cheers mate and stay safe. 🤙🏻
I bought the Goal Zero Yeti 500 “46AH” I hear you .. I have a solar panel as well and it works a great and do not need anymore than that 💪
Outstanding!
Great set of videos! Can you tell me the volume of the chaos box on top? What do you keep in there? Just recovery gear?
Just recovery gear. I think it’s 85L but I can’t remember off the top of my head. It’s on the caos gear website if your interested in it. Not a bad unit, gas struts and tie down points so you can access the lid without taking your straps off
Hi mate awesome video,
How did you strap your fridge? And what did you use? Thanks
I'm looking to buy the same fridge but I also don't want it permanently there as my Jimny is my daily
This was a couple of years ago now. I have since moved to a fridge slide with the Wildtrak Coolite fridge. Much better in my opinion for the jimny
Love your segments. I have a question. Car electrics is a black art to me. You have your fridge plugged into your power pack battery and then when you are on the move it is plugged into your cigarette lighter to charge on the move. When you stop for the night for example do you have to remember to pull the plug out of the lighter otherwise it could drain the car battery. Is that how it works and if so is that a hassle to remember to do that. I ask that because I have a Jimny on back order I already have a Coleman Rover 40 AH power pack and am going to get a 45l fridge and would set it up the way you have. Sorry for the book length question.
Gday legend! Yes that’s exactly how I have it set up. However if I turn the car off and the power pack is still plugged in the infotainment system remains on 😅. Basically I never forget because of that.
@@MightyOverlander Sounds like a good system. Keep up the good work.
Hi there. Not related to this video, but I was wondering which brackets you use to attach the batwing to your roof rack. We have the same roof rack and have just bought the bat-wing awning but ARB didn’t have compatible brackets and from what we can google we might need to hybridise a couple of brackets to make it work. What do you use and do you recommend it?
I used the the ones from ARB, drilled out the holes and under slug mounted it to the roof rack
You get anything done to light up the gearbox letters like PRDN
Ignore that ur running manual
Is the fridge sitting on the folded down seats?
The seat is there but I have made brackets that hold it securely over it
Some ppl are reporting issues when driving over sand above 30km/h. Have you had any issues with TC in this scenario?
I believe it’s the traction control kicking in
heya mate what is the weight capacity of the roof, Ive heard it only ranges from 30-40 kg
Yeah it’s about that. I don’t put much more up there than my swag and recovery box.
why do you have the small maxtracks ?
To be honest roofspace more than anything. I may decide to get the full size ones later but these have served me well so far. I very very rarely use them in anger
Where are you camping?
This video was shot at Tim’s Thickett, a popular 4x4 beach just south of Perth WA. Unfortunately it was shot the day before I deployed (I’m in the navy) and I’m still not home yet. I expect to be back in the next couple of weeks then I’ll be out there shooting more content for you guys!!
@@MightyOverlander Love the videos keep it up. I'm planning on getting the 4 door next year....depending on price
