The fine art of levelling up
Practical Caravan
|October 2025
Levelling your caravan is one of those jobs that takes a bit of time, but is well worth the effort of doing properly - and one good way to speed things up is to get an auto-levelling system.
There are a few options out there, though, so which is the right one for you? Fortunately our Consulting editor John Sootheran is on hand to explain all you need to know, on p76! Also in this issue’s technical section, we have a straightforward project on upgrading your WiFi connection (p82), and former editor Nigel has the latest updates on his 1998 project van (p84).
THE ABILITY to find your way about your campsite after dark, whether you are just off to the shower block or walking the dog, will likely involve a torch.
Chances are, you have always made do with what you’ve got lying around at home and simply left it at that. But if this is your situation, you are missing out.
