Complete Electrical & Power Systems for Camping, 4WD, Caravanning & Off-Grid Living

A reliable power setup is the backbone of any good campsite, caravan or remote touring adventure. Whether you’re heading off-grid for a weekend or building a full electrical system for a 4WD, van or caravan, the right combination of solar panels, batteries, chargers, inverters and generators gives you freedom, comfort and independence.

This Electrical & Power hub brings all your energy solutions into one place. From portable solar kits to lithium battery banks, pure sine wave inverters, MPPT controllers, power stations and generators, everything here is designed for real Australian conditions and real travellers.

Below is a breakdown of each major category so you can build a complete, reliable, safe power system tailored to your adventure style.

🌞 Solar Panels & Portable Solar

View Collection → Solar Panels for Camping, Caravan & Off-Grid – Campalot

Solar is the cleanest, quietest, most cost-effective way to keep your batteries charged on the road.
Solar suits almost all setups: 4WD canopy systems, caravan roofs, portable camping panels and expandable off-grid rigs.

At a glance:

Folding & briefcase panels for flexible campsite setups
Fixed roof panels for caravans & trailers
Solar blankets for ultralight touring
Plug-and-play off-grid kits

Solar is the first step for travellers wanting to reduce generator use, go silent at night, and travel indefinitely.

🔋 Lithium Batteries & Battery Systems

View Collection → https://campalot.com.au/collections/lithium-batteries

Lithium batteries (LiFePO4) power everything from camp fridges to full caravan electrical systems.
Compared to AGM or lead-acid, lithium gives you:

Higher usable capacity
Faster charging
Longer lifespan
Lower weight
Better performance with solar

From 100Ah all the way to large multi-battery systems, lithium is the heart of off-grid electrical setups.

⚡ Battery Chargers, DC-DC & Solar Controllers

View Collection → https://campalot.com.au/collections/battery-chargers

Your electrical system is only as good as the charger behind it.

This category includes:

DC-to-DC chargers for 4WD dual battery systems
AC chargers for caravan parks & home
MPPT solar controllers for high-efficiency solar charging
Battery management accessories for safe, reliable running

Chargers ensure your battery bank stays healthy, protected and optimised for your chemistry (especially lithium).

🔌 Inverters & Inverter/Charger Units

View Collection → https://campalot.com.au/collections/inverters

Inverters turn your 12V or 24V battery bank into clean 240V power.

Use them to run:

Laptops & cameras
Coffee machines
Tools
CPAP machines
Small appliances
Caravan equipment

Enerdrive and Renogy inverter/charger combi units offer next-level integration with automatic switching and battery charging.

🔋 Portable Power Stations & Power Banks

View Collection → https://campalot.com.au/collections/power-stations-and-power-banks

Power stations are the silent, solar-ready alternative to generators.
Perfect for:

Tent camping
Vanlife
Car camping
Emergency home backup
Drone/photography trips
CPAP machines
Remote work setups

Power banks add lightweight power for phones, headlamps, tablets and daily carry.

🔥 Portable Generators (2000W–6000W)

View Collection → https://campalot.com.au/collections/generators

Generators provide reliable 240V power for:

Caravan air-conditioning
Worksites
Heavy appliances
Home blackout backup
Long off-grid stays

Gentrax generators offer quiet inverter operation, fuel efficiency and output choices from 2000W to 6000W.

Best when paired with:

Solar panels (day charging)
Lithium batteries (night power)
DC-DC chargers
Power stations for silent evening use
