Get Ready To Tow: How we do it


Fresh wheels for Dave meant visiting us to install a Tow Package to prepare his Landcruiser 300 Series GR Sport for towing his caravan on new adventures.

For safe and convenient towing, we supplied and installed:

  • A Redarc TowPro V3 Brake Controller

  • A Grey 50A Anderson Plug Charge Circuit for caravan battery charging whilst driving

  • A Red 50A Anderson Plug connecting the Electronic Stability Control (ESC) Braking System on the caravan

  • A Safety Dave 7” Rear Vision Camera System teamed with the caravans’ existing rear camera

  • A 12 pin Trailer Socket, wired to keep the caravan fridge running in transit and a Trigger Switch which conveniently switches the caravan fridge from gas to 12V vehicle power when the vehicle is running.

To complete the package, Dave purchased The Lithium Box Small to run a fridge in the Cruiser which is charged from the vehicle when driving via the installation of a Blue Anderson Plug Charge lead.

The most compact in our range, The Lithium Box Small features:

  • 100Ah RV Lithium Systems Lithium (LiFePO4) Battery with Cell Balancing and Cell Protection

  • Victron Smart Shunt Bluetooth Battery Meter. Read the battery meter from the convenience of your smart phone. Displays the battery’s voltage, amps in or out, amp hours consumed, time to go until flat, and actual State of Charge (SOC) as a percentage.
