Choosing Caravan and RV Gear
Gear that lives in a caravan or camper has a harder life than anything in your lounge room. It runs from battery power, cops vibration on corrugated roads and needs to stay put while you travel, so equipment designed for 12 and 24 volt vehicle systems is worth the switch from household gear.
With entertainment setups, start with where the screen will mount and what power you have available. A 12/24V television like the Axis units in this range runs straight off your battery system without an inverter, and a proper RV wall mount holds the screen through travel. Measure your space and check the mount suits your screen size before you order.
Caravan and RV FAQs
Why buy a 12 volt TV instead of a household TV?
A 12 or 24 volt television runs directly from your battery system, so there is no inverter losing power in the middle. It is a simpler, more efficient way to watch TV off grid.
What should I look for in an RV TV mount?
Check it suits your screen size and weight, and that it locks or folds securely for travel. Corrugations punish a loose mount quickly.
