I have a renogy 100w lipo4 battery in my van we have run an electric blanket all night it hardly makes a dent as they draw uch power,I would think your Eco flow would easily manage it

Thanks, that's good to know. Might be an option. Cheap and readily available.

New Thule awning fitted.

Window bags have arrived. Ended up paying almost exactly £350 from Germany so comparable in price to the VanEssa window bags.

Seem really well made, good quality fitting kit too. And you can remove the bags leaving the window blanks in place if required.

A second sea to summit 2.8l collapsible pan, and some utensils for the van. I touched the collection of orange Yeti drinkware but resisted buying any because SWMBO does not think I need a third cup, despite neither of my other two being orange.

As with all the other stuff in my van, it's completely bespoke and designed for me!

It'll sit behind 2x single caravelle seats when not in use (top), then slide out and fold open over the 2 folded down seats into a single bed (bottom).

Where is the back one mounted?
Does it foul the sliding door?

And how secure do you think it might be, in a bit of wind?

Sorry for all the questions!

Morning!!
Back one is mounted about 300mm of the edge of the sliding door when open.

Doesn't foul on the door at all, mine is close tho, as my reimo rail is a little to low when it was fitted, ideally want the reimo rail 10mm above your door.

I asked them to fit the mounts as I would assume it is better in the wind going back to the camper, especially when it's got my big lug weight in it currently not had mad winds to see what it's like, just summer breeze lol.

Don't be sorry at all, happy to help and chat.
