Question
How much water and battery do I really need to free-camp for a few days?
Celso P.Roaming since Mar 2026July 2026
Trying to plan for free-camping stints away from power and taps. For those who do it regularly — how many days can you realistically go on your water and battery, and what's your rough setup (tank sizes, battery, solar, and how careful you have to be)? Keen for real numbers rather than brochure claims.
