THE FRONT BOOT
POWER UP
Briggs & Stratton has released its most
powerful inverter generator yet… and it
even comes with Bluetooth.
The new Q6500 QuietPower Series Inverter
Generator has a steel frame and is said
to be 60 per cent quieter than ‘standard’
generators, dramatically reducing
disturbance to nearby campers.
The Q6500 features a highly-efficient
integrated engine/alternator to provide up to
14 hours of run time and 6500 starting watts
of back-up power (5000W running power).
The generator’s Bluetooth functionality
involves an app that monitors total power
being used, run time (hours until empty), total
unit hours and maintenance reminders.
It is, however, quite heavy, with a weight of
58kg that would have to be considered as
part of your van/vehicle’s payload capacity.

POWER PACK
The myCOOLMAN Power Pack is a portable,
lightweight power solution that magnetically
attaches to the side of myCOOLMAN
compressor fridges.
The lithium ion-based Power Pack has a
blue LED display, allowing the user to easily
identify the remaining battery capacity. This
removes the need to have the fridge plugged
into a permanent power source, or to carry
around a cumbersome, heavy battery.
