Looked a bit low as well!
Hope you will be attending the next Dry Robe convention.
Yes, looking at doing a 2-4-1 and combining both dryrobe and crocs appreciation clubs.
It hangs on the tow bar to pull me backwards.
It’s mounted on a plate like this;
I need to add the stronger towing eyes to the front of the van and get a strap to fasten the winch plate to the front.

My kids laugh at the van horn - even SWMBO’s Mini is better/louder!
Nothing random about that, but I feel for your bank account after your expensive week!
Frankly I'm in awe. I have to spend months researching and planning.
You got a few opinions and bang straight to a decision and purchase, sometimes wish I could do that
Now the fun bit starts ... hopefully it's a straight forward install and doesn't take the number of evenings my upgrade eventually took. Happy to share any war stories to help you on your way if needed.
Wifey has only gone and done it... My Crocs arrive tomorrow How thpecial I will look. On a positive note, Toolstation have just supplied me with a 20mm SDS Masonry 460mm Drill bit for £7.39 so we can get the flagpole and Jormax into what will probably be rock hard ground in Malvern. A rental service will be available obviously! 2 sleeps, zero sleeps for sufferers of insomnia...
Are you going for a seat base install? The DC DC MPPT fits nicely at the back of the seat base after a bit of fettling.
Yes
Did you install this? Can you post some more pictures please

Here are a few ... I built a frame from alloy angle which bolts into the seat sides and then everything is mounted onto the framework. I had to file a couple of recesses in the seat base to clear the cables which all come up vertically from the DC DC MPPT.
Nice... This has filled me with dread
.. I will have to pay someone to install mine..
To be honest it's not too difficult. There are loads of circuit diagrams around (especially on this forum). Take your time over the planning stage. Draw up a circuit diagram (pencil and paper is as good as anything) and a wiring list. Find few which have your components of choice then see what the differences are. Get the folks on here to comment on your thoughts and ideas. Pay close attention to cable sizes and fuse ratings. There are some pretty big currents involved with some of the cable runs so don't underestimate the size of cable and the size of cable. ANL fuses are BIG both in Rating and physically. You'll also need a hefty crimp tool, carious crimp sizes, and lots of heatshrink.
If you're not confident get a professional in, that's an auto electrician it's pretty specialist work.
My thoughts? Run away run away...!
