this film festival probably won't give many ideas for your vehicle....however i am hoping it will give us plenty of ideas for destinations
good word tells me that seasoned overlanders from this forum attend every year......
we have penciled in the dates
Australian Festival 10-12 Feb 2017 : The Adventure Travel Film Festival
Land Rover Defender - Explorator 130 | EXPLORER Magazin
I think my Land Rover sickness just reached a new level when I looked at this.
Like the interior but the exterior is ugly, I thinkQuote:

So, what water purification gear do you carry when on remote trips?
I take a Milbank filter to remove most solids, a Katalyn Base Camp 10 liter filter drip feed bag to remove down to 2 microns, A Steripen Pro to kill virus and cysts (it's a tiny UV light effectively that you stir your water for a minute with, mutates the buggers so they can't multiply in your gut and give you Bali Belli), and Puritabs if I'm being anal about my water.
This lot takes up very little space and less than a kg in weight.
I use a Silicone bucket to decant into the filter bags.
Of course, you can boil as well for another layer of protection.
You never know when you may need to replenish you water in the bush or desert.
Ill put some photos up, and I'm really interested to hear what others use.

I've cross posted in other threads as well, but I've just added to my 2012 110's Long Ranger 127 liter fuel tank with a left (55l) and right (65l) Long Range Automotive Sil tanks, so around 230 liter fuel capacity now.
No more decanting from Gerry cans, or heavy load up top on the roof rack.
Pics to follow once they arrive in Cairns from Melbourne. TJM are selling and fitting them.
$3500 fitted, inc all transfer pumps etc.

My ARB Intensity light bar brackets finally arrived, so that's all my lighting needs met.
I also purchased a Kor Amber LED light strip to keep the bugs down when set up. Just plugs into my second battery or cig plugs that I've wired into the truck.
Great!

We went for a Purest One system. Pretty much identical to Seagull Systems. They sell it as a water purification system, rather than a water filter, as it will get out giuardia (sp?) and e-coli which filters don't.Quote:

Flow is a bit slow as it has to go through a very fine filter. We only use it for drinking water. For all other water (e.g. cooking) we just put it through a standard 2 canister charcoal/poly water filter.
Seagull's are same shape/filter size but in stainless steel instead of poly:

Filters are interchangable.

Pretty impressed with them, but you would want to be for the price.
I also like Light Force, and sort of wish I had gone with them.
Oh well.
Cool, was just wondering so i could see what size they were. Looking at putting lights on my roof rack, but am going with fyrlyts.Quote:
