RV REVIEW
There ’ s also a small LED light in the front and rear of the van , along with some offside storage space , not to mention a rearmounted spare wheel .
The OP19 rides on Shine XT independent trailing arm coil suspension with Pedders shockers , but you can upgrade to Cruisemaster suspension if you wish , whether its coils or airbags .
The fresh water system is comprised of two 95L tanks mounted forward of the axle grouping and a single 95L grey water tank to the rear – I ’ d consider wrapping up the PVC outlet in a pool noodle or some other protective material before hitting the tracks ; however , when I spoke to Opus ’ national sales manager , Glen Bond , he was keen to add some checkerplate here to future models .
Customers can add a third fresh water tank , which might not be a bad idea , and this model did have the payload capacity to accommodate an additional 95kg worth of water . Honestly , I would take that option – dependably safe water can be hard to come by in the bush .
The 12V system of the Opus OP19 is comprised of 300Ah worth of lithium batteries , three 210W roofmounted solar panels , a 2000W Renogy inverter ( mounted neatly under the bed ) and the BMPRO BatteryPlus35-II-HA power management system . This is quality gear and the fact it is provided in a solid off-road van at this price point says something about Opus , I think .
