WE SAY Compact and reliable power for all of your electric camp needs.

IF there’s been one 12-volt accessory that has made vehicle-based camping a hell of a lot easier, it’s the 12-volt fridge. From the enduring Engels to the countless fridges now on the market, powered fridges make life a lot easier than the old eskies with ice. No more warm bevvies or smelly sausages because you ran out of frozen water.

Keeping your fridge powered when the car is not running requires a secondary power source, so that you don’t drain the car’s starting battery. This is best done with a dual-battery system, but these can be expensive and costly to set up. A cheaper and more versatile way to keep the power on is with a lithium power pack, and here we’re trying out the Rover Lithium Power Station from Companion.
