Anyone using a wind turbine to compliment solar charging for house batteries?

As with most sales advertising there seems to be a bit of smoke and mirrors involved in the marketing of the new Landcruiser 300, and its claimed 3500kg towing capacity.

I'm concerned that if I don't fit a check valve into the shower drain line, I may get some "splash back" into the shower if I have to travel too far with a full grey water ta...

Both owners each had a set of jumper lead. A bit different to our street where I am regularly asked to jum...

But for those with Merc Sprinter type campervans, what is your 'system' for getting some airflow in the van during warm weather? All of the rentals, and vans I have seen f...
