What is a Smart Battery System?
All Spaceships campervans are equipped with a smart battery system, sometimes referred to as a dual battery system. This clever system automatically charges itself while you’re driving, ensuring it’s fully powered by the time you arrive at your campsite for the night. It keeps the fridge/freezer running throughout your stay and guarantees there’s enough energy left in the morning to start the vehicle without any issues. That’s why we call it a smart battery system—it’s designed to keep everything running smoothly while you enjoy your adventure!
