What they are all about
Pete and Joan Purdey and their gorgeous pooches from County Durham are enjoying the luxury of travelling off grid in their Devon Monte Carlo motorhome since they upgraded their leisure battery to lithium. Their new 210Ah Roamer battery enables them to adventure off grid for longer with 100% peace of mind, whilst enjoying all their home comforts on the road.
“We purchased the Roamer after taking time researching and have no regrets. The 300ah LiFoPo4 battery has been a game-changer for off-grid caravanning, no 'range anxiety' now!”
Pete & Joan's Electrical System
Pete & Joan took the plunge to upgrade their electrical system in their Monte Carlo after their friend’s kindly recommended Roamer. Before they decided to take the plunge, Pete & Joan were permanently watching their gauge to make sure they had enough power on their trips away. They use to go to a camp sights every few days to charge up and off grid travelling was never an option.
Now the lovely couple from Durham and their gorgeous pooches are enjoying trips off grid due to their endless supply of power on the road.
“It gives you the independence that you would have in a normal house.”
“Most of the time we go off grid, we very rarely use camp sights now.”
Pete & Joan have found having a lithium battery much better value for money. They have plans of going fully electric one day in the future.
Pete & Joan's Electrical Set-up
Pete and Joan upgraded their existing motorhome setup to add 210Ah of Roamer lithium, an inverter and extra solar.

"We're excited for our next adventure"
Pete & Joan are intrigued about designing & building a van from scratch as a juicy project for the future when they have more time on their hands going into retirement. They told us they would go fully electric & gas free system when the time comes; they’d love an induction hob as it boils a kettle in record time – no restrictions on how many cuppas per day for the foreseeable future!
