Whats your lighting...?
In the process of purchasing a GIC extreme Off Road camper.
http://giccampertrailers.com.au/camper- ... -road.html
I was told they had discontinued the lighter model.
http://giccampertrailers.com.au/camper- ... -road.html
We have many years of camping and Jayco Swan experience and should be able to find a stove and bits and pieces.
Getting a 120ah deep cycle battery installed for fridge and lights.
LED strips seem to be the go these days.
Can anyone let us know what they have in their CT for lighting.
Only needed for the odd 2-3 day trip up and down the NSW coast at the moment.
Both over 65, so in no hurry to go anywhere....LOL.

Hi Jim,
LED lights range from Ebay DIY flexible strips that you cut to size to suit
roll up ready to go
to complete plug & play kits which are hard backed with magnets
Greatest invention is the dimmer switch so you can turn the lights down to a glow after tea to find your way back to the camper from around the campfire.
There are several businesses offering members a discount on LED lighting. Check the discount to members section for details.

Thanks Rob.
I will research the lights and keep my hand off the wallet until the Caravan Show in Sydney in April...

Hi Jim,
Can't recommend the Korr Lighting kits highly enough, they are awesome.
I bought the 4 light system, but have added one extra strip to it, lights up everything, I reckon they could see us from "outer space"
All the strips have dimmer controls, and you can make it up into any configuration you want.
I love ours, it is awesome.
Regards
Barry H

Hi all,
Korr Lighting 4 light Kit
WOW you are spot on, brilliantly bright and with the carry case is a very neat setup, very easy to store!
Compared to lighting we have used over the years which you seem to always be replacing and replacing,
these feel like they will last and last (not going to try the hammer test just yet).
From order to Melb - 2 days, brilliant lights kit, brilliant service and a discount as well.
Safe travels

I purchased the 4 Bar Kit 0013696C for $150 when I picked up my Ranger Skamper Kamper. We use them on every camp trip. The dimmer switches are a great product on any light kit.
