Trip preparation pt 1

Getting the car and van just the way we wanted it came by way of years numerous camping/four wheel driving trips and learning the hard way of what works and what doesn't with of course a cost factor involved.
After several four wheel drive vehicles and tenting and camper trailer camping we decided on a goldstream storm camper van for our round Australia sojourn,then began the enviable task of which camper would suit us so obviously there is 5 of us the the logical step was a 6 berth van then we preferred a full size one to save money while travelling so we could save on take away food costs ,then height was an issue as we intend to put a kayak on top at some stage.
We decided that for the time being we will go without air conditioning ,however opted for a hot water service with shower option to give us a better free camping option ,so we came across a secondhand Webasto diesel ducted heater/hws with direct spark ignition.
Epsom Palms caravans were left in charge of the install of this along with mixer tap and our outdoor shower ,good things take time and we picked up the van all ready to go Thursday night then got her home ready to set up our van .
Apart from the usual packing of clothes food and camping gear I had to contend with somewhere to stow the specialised bikes of mine and dash.
The goldstream already had a 3 way fridge ,two large gas tanks and two 120 amp hour deep cycle batteries with an on board ctek 30 amp charger ,to this I added our ctek dual 250s dc-dc charger with mppt solar input and two 80 amp solar panels on a long lead.
With free camping to be our majority of our trip we have added a Enerdrive 1000watt true sine wave invetorwired via bus bar and mega fuse as is most of our van with a few to be modified to a standard I can understand.
We added a Teac 22inch led LCD with DVD inbuilt and utilise a travelmate powered omni directional antenna which I hope will be sufficient for our mainly digital viewing.
Two water tanks make washing up and drinking a little more comfortable however we will have to watch our shower usage when away from mains water which is on board .
