People starting their adventure with a camper or caravan can sometimes find it difficult to find their way in the maze of gas-powered heating devices and accessories. In this article, we would like to systematize knowledge in this area and draw attention to possible methods of heating, but also storing and refueling gas. The most popular gas tank used in broadly understood caravanning is a replaceable 11 kg cylinder. The downside is that it is made of steel and is heavy. Due to their weight and dimensions , NANO cylinders have also become popular, available at numerous chain gas stations and some DIY stores (equipped with a dedicated filling connector), and recently also GAS BANK cylinders. Although the latter solution is associated with a high purchase cost, the wide range of refueling nozzles available makes it easier to fill in most European countries. We also have the option of connecting a gas level sensor . The cylinders are light, handy and safe - link.

Recently, the light has seen an innovative off-road, compact and multi-purpose motorhome from the Wavecamper stable. We were able to visit its creators and take a closer look at it. Wavecamper 4x4 is an unusual project. Can you tell us more about the backstage of its creation and the drive?. This is the first Wavecamper 4x4 ever built. It is a motorhome for special tasks, which extends the exploration possibilities for the user. You can boldly enter the wilderness and stay away from people and camps . It is perfect for people who value close contact with nature and greater peace. The use of Seikel - Monroe Maxi HD suspension raises the vehicle by approx. 3 inches (7 cm - measured value).

Load capacity without compromise, that is ... a bus as a motorhome

In 2020 The premiere of the Renault Trafic Camper took place, built by WaveCamper.pl - a company from Poznań famous for its very high quality and attention to every detail. We had the opportunity to test it, which I described in the article below: Renault Trafic Camper - a very functional campervan. A moment later, our colleague from the editorial office, who is responsible for editing our video materials, took the same camper on a tour of Croatia and Slovenia. However, he avoided crowded campsites, choosing more secluded places, away from the beaten track. See how the Renault Trafic Camper performed on both smooth asphalt and gravel.

A holiday in Croatia is the dream of many people. It is not only the monuments of this picturesque country that attract millions of tourists every year. Holidaymakers are also tempted by the beauty of nature, wonderful weather and relatively good connections with the rest of Europe. When we add a well-developed accommodation infrastructure to the list of these advantages, we get a country that deserves the term "must see" in every respect. Croatia's tourist infrastructure is rich in all types of recreational facilities. Here you will find tiny, intimate campsites, medium-sized resorts, and multi-hectare complexes. The well-known Maistra chain belongs to the group of well-equipped, large facilities with an attractive offer for every tourist. People visiting one of its campsites can count on a full range of accommodation options. Those who love sleeping under the stars will be delighted with the campsites , and motorists will praise the spacious pitches. On the other hand, those who love comfort can relax in one of the cottages or hotel rooms.

In a series of articles presenting the design assumptions of individual motorhomes, the time has come for integrated vehicles . Popular "integrateds" are vehicles in which we do not find a separate cab of the base car, and the cockpit is somewhat "absorbed" by the bodywork. As a result, the vehicles have the same width along their entire length, and the enormous windshield catches the eye, at first glance justifiably associated with a bus. In this material, we would like to introduce you to the profiles of two cars representing the flagship models of two brands from one producer group - these will be the Frankia Platin i7900 Plus and the French Pilote G781FGJ produced in Germany. Despite their similar dimensions, these are cars with a completely different style, purpose and design solutions.

Picnic is approaching fast, which is undoubtedly associated with relaxation away from the hustle and bustle of the city. A picnic, a walk in the park or forest, a bicycle trip or a trip to the mountains are just some of the proposals that are most often chosen by Poles. However, not everyone loves the standard, repeated every year attractions. In such a situation, other, alternative solutions come to the rescue, which will appeal to everyone who wants to spend a picnic in a slightly more sophisticated way.

The Morelo brand has already got us used to spectacular solutions and remarkable design. Most of us associate the brand with luxurious giants on wheels. The Grand Empire 110 GSO , presented at the last trade fair in Düsseldorf, leaves most of the competing designs that we have seen in Europe in the shadow. The base vehicle is a Mercedes Benz Actros with an engine capacity of 12.7 liters and an impressive 531 horsepower (torque is up to 2400 Nm). In terms of comfort and technological solutions, the Morelo brand once again redefines the standards in this segment. We will not find here, for example, side mirrors that have been replaced by the MirrorCam monitor system.
