Ever been setup up the perfect campsite, wising to stay for weeks only to realised that you are running out of water? Today I show you what/how I’ve built a 12V pump box that can turn any fresh water source into clean, safe drinking water for your campsite or caravan.

We are a family of 4 and it doesn’t matter how we go about it, water is by far the limiting factor that determines how long we can remain ‘off-grid’ camping. I knew I needed to find a way to store/source more water to become less reliant on regular top ups.

Carrying hundreds and hundreds of litres of water is heavy, bulky and not practical.
As mentioned in the video, here is the full parts list I have used in creating this box:
