Was great to have an INEOS Grenadier at Explore HQ for some upgrades.

The Grenadier came from factory with an auxiliary battery system, but the configuration wasn't quite working for this adventurous couple, so a few tweaks and some Victron Energy B.V. kit and a Fogstar battery soon sorted that out. 😎

It’s good to get out of the workshop sometimes and stretch the legs (or suspension) and take in the scenery

We are now taking bookings for February ‘25 whether it’s a pop top roof on your self build project, an off grid lithium battery and solar setup for your camper motorhome or 4x4 or a full camper build ready for the 2025 spring/summer season. Get in touch.

Something a little different for us at Explore HQ and something we are so proud to have been asked to be part of.

Earlier this year we were asked by Severn Area Rescue Association to help with the build of their incident control unit (ICU).

After lots of discussion to understand the needs of the charity and how best we can layout the space in their Transit. The team at SARA handed the empty vehicle over with the cabling for the specialist radio equipment, then it was our turn.

First steps installing a window on the sliding door and an awning really transformed the outside of the van.

We installed swivels to the driver and front passenger seats which, combined with a bespoke table, make the best of the space. Along with a diesel heater to keep the space warm on cold nights.

We used high quality insulation, ply-lined and carpeted the walls and laid anti-slip commercial grade flooring.

We routed our cabling around the specialist radio cables to ensure power and lighting to the work space.

Work desks, cabinetry and storage solutions were all made bespoke and in-house on our CNC machine. Custom perspex cabinet doors were chosen to help find items quickly, but they also completed the look on the high level cabinetry.

We installed what has to be the brightest lighting we have ever installed in a vehicle, which really made it feel that this is a space for important work.

Finally a robust and functional rear garage to store equipment and the awning sides.

Conversion complete it was time to hand back to the SARA team for livery and installation of their equipment.

Last week we attended the official launch of the ICU and heard just how much this means to the team, how hard they have worked to raise funds for the vehicle and its conversion.

SARA is a volunteer lifeboat and inland search and rescue charity, with 7 lifeboat and rescue stations along the length of the River Severn. Each year SARA is called out over 100 times!
