Top 5 recommended extras for your campervan conversion

Solar Panels

Adding a solar panel is an awesome addition to your campervan giving you more freedom to explore without the need to plan around hook-ups. Couple it with a Lithium battery as above and you'll truly be able to have that off-grid experience and go wherever you choose!

Taylored Campervans are now offering the impressive MiPV fully flexible panels still linked with our outstanding Victron Bluesmart regulator. These panels use advanced CIGS (Copper Indium Gallium Selenide) not the normal Crystalline Silicone giving them a strong advantage. These include things like:

• Low light performance (still able to perform in the shade, on overcast days, dusk and dawn) 
•  The panel is made up of individual cells (not a bank of cells) meaning each cell will still perform if some of the panel are shaded or covered
• Withstands higher sun temperature which does not reduce performance
• Extremely strong panels and completely shatterproof (no glass or silicone that can easily break like other panels) 
• Lightweight and low profile with a self adhesive backing to ensure best performance 
•  Self cleaning EFTE coating so non stock surface, requires no maintenance

Heating System

In the UK, traditionally camping season starts in April and tends to get slower by September/October time. However, this doesn't have to be the case! At Taylored we supply and install both diesel and gas heating systems so you can keep that camping season going on for longer!

If you're planning on enjoying the great outdoors in the off-season, an onboard heating system is a must-have!

There are pros and cons to both diesel and gas heating systems but you can check our pages about each below. Oh and if you have any questions feel free to get in touch!

Wind-Out Awning

A wind-out awning is an awesome addition to any campervan and hence its earned a place on this recommendations list!

Our favourite is the Thule 4200 because of its sleek design and quality. This extra fits beautifully to the side of your van and integrates perfectly with the conversion to offer an easy-to-use extension awning perfect for extending that living space out and around your campervan.

Whichever brand you go for, wind-out awnings are a fantastic and convenient addition to make both short and long-haul journeys more enjoyable.
