Behind every great adventure and every journey off the beaten path, there’s a story of trust, innovation, and homegrown pride. As we celebrate Australian Made Week, it’s the perfect time to shine a light on the people and businesses who proudly stand behind Australian manufacturing and the incredible adventures made possible by it.
Since REDARC’s inception over 45 years ago, we’ve been dedicated to remaining Australian made. From the design, development, and manufacture of our gear, being Australian made is personal to us. Track the journey of a REDARC product to learn how it gets from idea to powering your adventures.
Australian Made Week is a moment to celebrate the quality, innovation, and reliability of local manufacturing and REDARC is proud to lead the charge. For over 45 years, we've designed, engineered, and manufactured cutting-edge automotive electronics from our headquarters in Lonsdale, South Australia.
Why do we choose REDARC to power our rig?
Living full-time on the road for 11 years, we’ve learned that reliable power isn’t a luxury—it’s a necessity. From 10 wild weeks of sublime craziness in Iceland (including eight without a diesel heater) to our biggest adventure yet, the Mega Transect, we need a setup that will serve us well, no matter where we are.
That’s why we run REDARC.
At REDARC, we know that the heart of any great adventure lies in the technology that powers it. For over 45 years, we’ve been at the forefront of power management solutions, ensuring overlanders like the team at XOVERLAND can rely on uninterrupted power no matter where the journey takes them.
On their latest expedition, Spirit of Adventure, XOVERLAND co-founder Clay Croft and his sons are racing 8,500 miles from Bozeman, Montana, to Prudhoe Bay, Alaska. Along the way, they rely on REDARC’s robust products to keep their gear running smoothly, ensuring a seamless experience across rugged terrains and unpredictable weather.
A van or camper provides the ultimate freedom — a home on wheels that opens up the country for you to explore. However, power from a dual battery system or your car battery uses DC power, which requires DC-power-specific appliances to be useful.
Van life is all about freedom and flexibility. Whether you’re exploring remote landscapes, or just
enjoying a minimalist lifestyle, your van becomes your home on wheels. But first it is essential to
have a well-thought-out-plan of how to convert your van, so it is ready to hit the road.
We caught up with van conversion experts, Sandy Vans, to discover their top tips when converting a van for the van life space. From layout to electrical systems, these expert tips will help you make the most of your van and ensure you’re ready for any adventure.
