OFFROAD CHALLENGE
The 12V system is comprised of two 100Ah lithium batteries with 30A charger , three 170W solar panels with a 30A MPPT regulator , and a BMPRO BatteryPlus 35 battery management system .
With two well-protected 95L water tanks and a 110L grey water tank , this van is capable of up to a week away from civilisation , provided you ’ re frugal with your water consumption .
Deluxe ’ s caravans are undeniably well built – you won ’ t find anything rough or unfinished here – but it ’ s when you step inside that the appeal really hits . The Eclipse was the first two-berth caravan that Deluxe had made , and the design philosophy was to provide as big a bathroom as practical . If you ’ ve ever squeezed yourself into a caravan bathroom that ’ s not much larger than 2ft across , you ’ ll appreciate what Deluxe has done here .
The bathroom includes a large corner shower , a toilet that does not feel cramped , a large linen cupboard that also hides a 3.5kg front-loading washing machine , and loads of other cupboards and bench space . It ’ s done very well .
