FIT AN INTERIOR GRAB HANDLE

Getting in and out of your motorhome can be much easier with a well-placed grab handle

FIT AN INTERIOR GRAB HANDLE

Motorhomes are not normally equipped with grab handles by the door, although even able-bodied motorcaravanners can find it a bit tricky to get in and out. But if you do have limited mobility, I think you would be well advised to fit the type of large, fixed, metal handles made precisely for the purpose.

Car roof handle

I spent some time looking on the internet to find a suitable general-use handle, but those I came across all had a 'domestic' appearance.

I finally decided that a car interior grab handle would be ideal as it's compact, folding and neutral in colour. A typical car roof handle might cost up to £50 new, but online I found three used Hyundai i10 roof handles for under £12, including postage.

Inverter essentials

I've just read a rather sad story online of a German couple whose motorhome caught fire while they were using an air fryer via an inverter. Initially it was believed that the lithium batteries were the culprit, but I'm not sure that was the case. LiFePO4 battery chemistry, while still technically a lithium-ion variety, is much safer than the ones used for EV batteries. Many EV manufacturers are now switching to LiFePO4 because of this.
