Would be interested to. Ours is still working but 7 years old so no doubt will need to be replaced in next couple of years. Bugger they stopped making RPD218

We have an inverter in our van and generally use it however for extended stays and lousy weather at times we have also used power banks as well. They can be charged whilst you drive to and from places in the car for the day or when you go to the next place. Ordinary small one will work on phone and ipad I am using Cygnett 15,000mah. Picked it up from a telstra shop in our travels.
macbook pro requires a much stronger power bank. I am using Cygnett USB-C 27,000mah. Picked this up from Harvey Norman shop after much mucking around. These can be precharged and only have to be topped up when needed.

This was sent to me. I hope you take it in the vein it was intended in todays social distancing. My first thought...some people just have to much time on their hands at present.
What do you call a gathering of 30 people?
Four weddings and a Funeral.

Just not sure how much longer they will allow us free movement so finding a place to stay and work out from there until things are more clearer

Our trip to Tassie has had a strange twist. We have been here since Early November and were to go home Early May. Now that the boarders are locked we can't go to Qld or WA as we are considered non essential travel and would require 14 day isolation in at least NSW and QLD or SA and WA (not Vic yet I don't think). Some states do not consider isolation in your caravan good enough. Possibly because you would be in a caravan park or free camp where people are to close not sure. This is just how at stands as at 12 noon today.
At this point we are leaving our options open and have left the sailing date stand in case things change for the better!!!
Hope everyone stays well and we shall see how this pans out

If you mean the very front boots (where the batteries are kept) we are also experiencing this problem after all the rain. We presume that because they lean that the channels get full and overflow into this area. Just pulled out 3 very soggy towels. Anyone come up with a solution we are all ears???

Yes unfortunately people can be real pigs and not clean up after themselves.

How and where do we replace the fuel filter tony - don't leave us hanging. You know some of us aren't as clever as you.

What a great roll up. Well done Tony it certainly looks like your organisational effort was greatly appreciated looking at all of the smiling faces.
Have a great gathering.

Hopefully this is the end of your van troubles and you can again enjoy your travels in WA.

I hate it when Tony is right. I had to look up what a spanner was before I replied.
Lucky Val knows what he is doing as my only contribution for his replacement of the spring was to show him where my local mechanic works.
Safe travels Tony and Annie.
Regards Paul.

Don't have siri, what does it say?

Hi Pepper,
Never seen a warranty in writing but everyone was happy with there Kedrons when we were checking things out before purchase.. Since some of the other suppliers give you a written warranty and don't live up to it it seemed redundant. We have had things done after what would be the accepted period and they have always done there best for us. I realise this doesn't answer your exact question but hope it helps

Loved the report and pictures, you may not have done many km's but you packed enough into it
-
Goodness what a lot of run around. Hope things work out for you both. People to avoid perhaps

an impromptu gathering

We have also had our Kedron serviced by Harding Swift. They did a great job. We told them we were going rough and asked them to replace things that might be iffy (as we are not mechanically minded). Only 1 bearing needed replacing. Think there was a list started I will try and track it down and pin it to the top for people to find

Hi Tony, our omnicharge 12 volt 60 amp looks like it has died (4.5 years old). Spoke to Kedron today they are now using the one you suggest. Rang the guy in perth and he is going to check into this for me. We are going away this weekend but the solar panels are charging the battery just fine as far as we know, free camp so no power anyway. Got on the website to search and see what others thought and did. Cross fingers it isn't the start of age related things dieing on us.

We are thinking of going to see the whales in August/September and will pass the Eyre Bird Observatory. Has anyone been with their van. From what I can work out you drive in to the lookout, unhitch and do the last part by 4wd - very steep from what I understand. Just wondering if it is worth the effort?
Used Kedron 18' advice

Keep your eye on the 'Sale' section of the forum something might pop up there. Also on the Facebook Kedron page sometimes has vans.
Read, read, read. It will all start to make some sense. Make sure it has a diesel heater. Toyotas are certainly the way to go for a car.
