20.01.2022 ALL THESE GIDGETS AND MORE ARE NOW ON THE ROAD, ON HOLIDAYS, WEEKEND ESCAPES, LONG ADVENTURES, AND IN HOMES ACROSS AUSTRALIA, THE U.S.A & NEW ZEALAND. Every Gidget is custom-built at our factory on the northside of Brisbane, then photographed before leaving to go home to each new familywhether the new owner has come from just 'around the corner', made a holiday road trip to pick up, or shipped interstate or overseas to the USA or NZand the images are archived. We share phot...os with the new owners, as well as regularly load full albums of some of our Gidgets here on our Facebook page. This allows our customers and followers to see every aspect of our design, build, craftsmanship, features, finishes and inclusions and how each owner has personalised their own Gidget through a full range of custom included choices or special upgrades. With many detailed and up-close images as well as videos from top to bottom and inside and out, we love to show off our Gidget.

18.01.2022 INSPIRATIONAL THOUGHT OF THE WEEK
16.01.2022 Following on from our earlier story, here's the simple answer to the question.... HOW DOES AN EVAPORATIVE COOLER WORK? Evaporative coolers work by misting the air, sucking in hot air, adding in a little water and sending out cool air. Think of them a little like standing near a waterfall on a hot day and you’re 'on the money'. They’re incredibly common in dry climates but can work perfectly to 'knock the edge off' inside a camper trailer, just enough to make it comfortable an...d get you to sleep. Simply plug them into 12V power, fill them up with water [and also some ice if you have some handy] and enjoy a decent night’s sleep. They may not be a substitute for a full blown air-conditioning unit, but they’re also around 10 per cent of the price, a fraction of the weight and size, environmentally friendly, and energy efficient with a low power draw. The Transcool evaporative cooler can easily fit on the purpose-built shelf in the Gidget.

11.01.2022 GLAMPING WITH PETS Many Gidget owners travel with their pets, mostly dogs, and have found many great sites and parks that not only welcome well-behaved pets but go out of their way to provide facilities. Our owners share their experiences and places with their fellow members on our owner's group called 'Gidget Glampers' and there's some great places all over Australia and North America which cater for our fur-friends-family. We'd love you to share your finds here with us too.... There's also helpful publications and apps for Glampers, caravaners and campers travelling with pets and here's a link to a few of those plus some helpful tips. http://www.campsaustraliawide.com//free-dog-friendly-camp/
10.01.2022 RIGHT NOW AUSTRALIAN AND NEW ZEALAND GIDGET OWNERS ARE ENJOYING SUMMER HOLIDAYS IN THEIR GIDGETS. AT THE SAME TIME OUR US GIDGET OWNERS MAY BE VENTURING OUT IN THEIR WINTER WEATHER FOR A CAMPING ADVENTURE AS WELL. So you may ask the questions....What is it like inside Gidget in hot weather? What about in cold weather?... Gidget is fully insulated and once you extend the slide-out you have two large, double glazed, fly-screened awning windows on either side. We have camped on beaches in tropical far north Queensland in the middle of summer and Cradle Mountain, Tasmania, in the winter at 1C. From our personal experiences, and those shared by all of our Gidget Glampers, Gidget can be perfectly comfortable in any temperature. If going somewhere cool, a warm cover or doona does the trick. For winter weather just add a heavier wool doona/quilt, no need for a heater. In hot conditions, a plug-in 12V fan or a Transcool Evaporative Air Cooler is very effective. (We also offer installed 2 fans into the slide-out walls as an upgrade if you’d prefer to have the wires hidden, the fans overhead and save on counter space.) Seasoned travellers know to put ice cubes [available in bags from service/gas stations] into the evaporative cooler to further reduce the temperature on those hot days. Most of our Gidget ownersknown affectionately as Gidget Glamperscarry a Coleman Event 14 deluxe gazebo in their Gidget underfloor storage area. These easily cover Gidget even when the kitchen lid is open and provide 50+UV protection for you to use your Gidget in the shade and it is also waterproof.
06.01.2022 PHONE CHANGEOVER DURING CHRISTMAS CLOSEDOWN Whilst the office is closed between Christmas and New Year's we have taken this time to changeover our NBN service provider for our phones and internet. Whilst we go through this process the phones will be disconnected then reconnected to the new provider. By the time we reopen next week our services should be fully set up. We don't expect any inconvenience as we've timed this changeover whilst the office is closed for the holidays.
06.01.2022 ALL GIDGETS MEET THE AUSTRALIAN DESIGN REGULATIONS VSB1. GIDGETS ARE ALSO APPROVED BY THE U.S. DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORT FOR USE IN NORTH AMERICA. Our Gidget design has been developed meticulously in conjunction with, and approved by an industry recommended, respected and qualified external engineer. Gidgets meet all the VSB1 standards and regulations. These include National Codes of Practice and National Guidelines which cover design, manufacture, safety and operation. The Re...gulations cover everything from the design, manufacture and engineering of the chassis, drawbar, coupling, safety chains, axles, suspension, tyres, braking, electrical wiring, placement and quality of lighting, all measurements, approved products, safety and vehicle number identification. Our Gidget not only meets these important design standards but also surpasses some of them, including the design and construction of our chassis and drawbar. We are proud of our Australian designed and built Gidget. CERTIFICATIONS On completion, an Engineering Certificate, Gas Certificate and Electrical Certificate are provided with each Gidget. Our Gidget Cooktop is also certified by Global-Mark.
04.01.2022 GLAMPING WITH PETS, ACROSS THE USA. In our previous story we shared a link to find pet friendly parks and sites across Australia, so now we'd like to share a link or two to the same for North America. This site also directs you to pet friendly beaches and national parks. http://petfriendlytravel.com/campgrounds
03.01.2022 HAPPY NEW YEAR TO OUR GIDGET OWNERS, OUR GIDGET FANS AND FOLLOWERS AND ANYONE WHO LOVES TO GO ON ADVENTURES, TRAVEL, EXPLORE, EXPERIENCE NEW THINGS, SEE NEW PLACES AND MEET OLD AND NEW FRIENDS.... NO MATTER WHERE YOU ARE IN THIS GREAT BIG BEAUTIFUL WORLD.
02.01.2022 GIDGETS HAVE A QUEENSIZE BED, BUT DID YOU KNOW THE BED CONVERTS EASILY TO A LOUNGE INSIDE THE CABIN? Due to the unique design of the slide-out the bed easily converts to a lounge and back again. You simply, move the cushions, lift up the front section of the ‘underfloor’ to create a seat back in position, revealing a generous under floor storage area, which is also the foot well...then replace the cushions. You could store your portable table and chairs in this area so when y...ou arrive at your campsite, you pull back the lounge, take them out and set them up outside in front of your kitchen. This leaves your footwell clear for using the lounge. There are other storage compartments under the bed as well as your spare tyre in its own carry cover. The pull out table is a generous size and slides away out of view when not needed. You can use the table in both the bed position and the lounge position. Here's two short videos demonstrating this including how to do this with the bed already made. https://youtu.be/mkWAoZWx2NY https://youtu.be/BXb9hElTrs0
