What have you bought for your Cali today :-)

[Lambeth Cali]

Fully tested and setup Nebula Max from the Prime Day sales. All ready to go for Penhale this weekend. Not as simple to setup and use as you would think but got there in the end. Impressively small though with good sound and zero noise. Much better than my PicoMax.

What plays the movie? A phone with a Bluetooth or WiFi connection or is that a usb drive in the back?

Ah I didn't think to check on amazon for projectors on prime day - did you get a good deal?

 

[Perfectos]

I did not buy, as I already have some: but noticed today that Aldi is selling packing cube sets £4.99 for set of three

 

[This Eva]

Bought a Cadac Dual Power Pack with Quick Release and a 6 pack of gas canisters. Normally use a 2nd 907 cylinder with our Cadac when cooking outside but reading the do’s and don’ts for Camperjam they state that no spare gas bottles should be brought onto site and that only external stoves with small gas bottles (2.2kg) are permitted.
Decided to abide by the rules

Thanks for making me aware of the gas rules. I have a hp cadac grill so will be ok. We are coming to Camperjam so will be nice to meet up with you.

Keep safe Marcus

Bought one of these from Aldi…….. fits perfectly and keeps the rubbish out of the way and no odours (passed the smoked mackerel wrapper and banana skin test haha)………

Actually bought a week ago but notice they still sell them

330. Generally it’s around that anyway but before prime day they hiked it back to RRP. Used the saving to get the bespoke case for it too.

There are a few options. The simplest for us is to have any shows downloaded and play them from the usb port. There is a built in player, but it is rubbish and does not play all sound formats, so we downloaded vlc player from the built in app store and that works perfect. You can sign into Netflix etc and sign in to play, with a 4G connection. There are mirror options but my experience in the past is mirroring is player limited due to copyright.

Diamant pro user plus bought from club shop. Very happy with it. Back door opens with two bikes on.

Love ours. Bought from the club too.

A couple of suction on storage pots from Ikea

 

[GrahamB]

Bought and fitted “half and half” leather look seat covers in grey/anthracite made by Individual Auto Design via the club shop. Very pleased with the results. Took a long time to fit - and very tiring in the heat! The covers are an extremely tight fit and take a lot of persuading to fit in position, but well worth the effort and completely secure when all zips, fasteners and loops are done up. The grey colour is a very close match to the Cali Ocean interior. The club shop photos don't really do this justice.

Primus Tupike Stove/grill and some adapters to R907 bottles. We are going to test it this weekend.

Used it some for dinners now and we are impressed about how fast it boils water ot how well made it is!

Not bought today but finally fitted today (yes the hottest day so far, great timing)

Bought a spare set of Claytons from a forum member a year or so back, had them powder coated by a trade friend of my brothers. Obviously needed to buy an eBay locking wheel nut key first.. (and only after fitting them did I think to order an adaptor for 3/4 sockets for my impact driver)

Maybe need the black B pillar decal I think.

 

[Lambeth Cali]

A 5 inch tiny fan for £11. I’m thinking should provide a modest but useful breeze with a usb plug in the 3 pin kitchen plug, cable long enough and plugged in at all sites I booked I think.

Oh and a map of France

We spent our first night in the cali at the weekend. The bed in the pop up roof I think would be ideal for kids, but for us adults carrying a little too much insulation, it was a bit hard. I ordered a 5cm Duvalay topper yesterday so I hope that adds enough support without being too thick. Maybe we'll get out next weekend to try it out.

Windscreen washer repair kit! (my curly hose had split)

Any pictures where’d you get the kit from?

Thanks for the useful post/pictures - we have the same sat in the cupboard awaiting the van arrival. Good to know they fit and look as good as we hoped.

How about the bargain of the day. At go outdoors

I did notice this and had to check that the £40 stove is compatible to make sure it qualifies. On the face of it, this should meet the criteria - giving you a 907 and stove for £40 - cheaper than a 907 on its own...

I have no need for the stove but if this worked, it would be tempting. Other than the fact that they have closed down the Go-Outdoors in Reading...

In the ever widening search for a bin we received this one from Amazon today. Truth be told while it "fits" and allows seat to swivel in place its a few mm too wide and therefore the base is off the floor a little at the back, which annoys my OCD. Some shaving from the hinge may fix this.

It's also shorter than expected but will work well for us. We also have the fabled Aldi one to come, which may fit better. Perfect colour match though.

That is strange - mine fits OK. Actually, thinking about it, I have carpet which fills that area also, so the bin sits fractionally higher and maybe that is why mine fits OK.

Makes sense - if the whole thing sat a few mm higher then yup, would fit perfectly.

I did not buy it for the van, it was a present but it may travel with me. Not a California!
