Redodo 12V 165Ah LiFePO4 Battery Upgrade: Holger’s Jeep Camping Story

Holger of BackRoad Journals had been traveling with portable power stations in his Jeep for four years. Over time, he found the setup unreliable and wanted a better solution for camping and longer road trips.

After upgrading to a Redodo 165Ah LiFePO4 battery system, Holger found that the battery fit neatly into the Jeep and made better use of the limited interior space.

Here is Holger’s experience upgrading his Jeep camping power setup with Redodo.

Why I Needed a Better Jeep Camping Battery Setup

“Our power situation is not good. It’s unreliable.”

For Holger, camping power needs go beyond charging a phone. His setup needs to support a fridge, a diesel heater, camera batteries, drone batteries and phones during multi-day trips.

At the same time, space inside the Jeep is limited. Carrying bulky power equipment can reduce the room available for other camping gear, especially on longer trips.

That made two things important for the new setup: reliable power and better use of space.

Why Redodo Worked for My Jeep?

One of the first things Holger noticed was how well the battery fit into the available space.

“Perfectly situated right here. Absolutely no space wasted.”

For him, that was a major improvement. The new Redodo 12v 165ah setup reduced the amount of room taken up by his power system and helped keep the Jeep better organized for longer adventures.

“One of the things we absolutely love about it is the amount of space that it’s actually saving us while we’re going on big trips.”

My Redodo Battery Setup and Real-World Results

Holger tested the new setup during a two-night camping trip.

Over those two nights, the battery supported the diesel heater, the fridge, and charging for phones, camera batteries and drone batteries.

When it was time to leave camp, the Redodo battery still had 62% remaining.

Based on that usage, Holger estimated that under similar cold-weather conditions, the setup could potentially support around four days in one location.

“That is fantastic. We’ve never been able to do that before.”

The experience continued on the drive out. Holger left camp with the battery at 62%, and by the time he reached the pavement, it had returned to 100% within about 1.5 hours.

“Absolutely brilliant for longer road trips. This is exactly what you want.”

The Value of Redodo for Jeep Camping

For Holger, the upgrade was about more than battery capacity. It created a more space-efficient power setup that better matched the way he travels and camps.

His experience reflects Redodo’s Go Light. Be Free. philosophy: use less space for power equipment, reduce unnecessary setup burden and keep more room for the journey itself.
