Know before you buy
Before you buy camping gear
Rooftop tents, awnings and fridges make a trip comfortable, but each one puts demands on your roof, your battery or your set-up time. Here's what to check.
- Rooftop tents and your roof
Driving with the tent on uses the roof's dynamic rating; sleeping in it uses the static rating. Check your vehicle maker's limits first (Darche), and use 2 to 4 bars depending on the tent's length (Rhino-Rack).
- Awnings and wind
Use guy ropes whenever the awning is out, don't set it up in wind, never leave it open unattended, and dry it before you store it (Rhino-Rack).
- Fridge power
A fridge's worst-case run time is battery amp-hours divided by its maximum draw; real run time is longer because the compressor cycles. Running it through an inverter doesn't extend battery life (Engel).
- Plan around closures
Many Victorian seasonal tracks close from after the King's Birthday weekend in June to the end of October, and closures can be extended (Parks Victoria).
Common questions
Can my vehicle carry a rooftop tent?
Check two numbers: the dynamic roof rating, which must cover the tent and rack while driving, and the static rating, which must cover the tent and its occupants when parked. Use your vehicle maker's figures (Darche).
How long will my fridge run on a battery?
As a worst case, divide the battery's amp-hours by the fridge's maximum current draw. It will run longer in practice because the compressor cycles on and off (Engel).
Will a fridge work on a slope?
Engel compressor fridges work on up to a 30 degree tilt.
What should I do with the awning in wind?
Don't set it up in wind, use guy ropes when it's out, and never leave it open unattended (Rhino-Rack).
When are Victoria's seasonal tracks open?
Parks Victoria's seasonal road closures generally run from after the King's Birthday weekend in June to the end of October, and can be extended. Check the closure list before you go.
