Frequently asked questions
Is a battery included?

Can I charge with the engine off?
You can, but it draws from your vehicle battery. Unless you have a dual-battery system, charge while the engine is running.
Will it work in a 24V truck?
Yes. It runs on 12V and 24V vehicle sockets.
How are Off-Grid Power products delivered?
They're sent from our Australian warehouse partner, separately from our swags and awnings, so if you order both you'll receive more than one parcel.
- Shipping is free within Australia when your Off-Grid Power products total over $200. Below that, shipping is calculated at checkout.
- Orders placed before midday on a business day are usually dispatched the same day; later orders go the next business day.
- Most deliveries arrive within 1 to 6 business days of dispatch. Regional and remote areas can take longer.
- You'll get tracking details by email once your order is on its way.
Off-Grid Power products can't be picked up from our Marcoola store.
Can I return an Off-Grid Power product if I change my mind?
Yes, within 30 days of delivery.
- It must be unused, in its original condition and packaging, with proof of purchase.
- Contact us first. We'll give you the return address, which is different from our Marcoola store. Items sent back without approval may not be accepted.
- You pay the return freight, and the original shipping cost isn't refunded.
- A 5% restocking fee is deducted from your refund.
We don't do direct exchanges: return the item and place a new order for the one you want.
What if it arrives faulty or damaged?
Check your order when it arrives. If anything is faulty, damaged or not what you ordered, stop using it and contact us within 14 days of delivery with your order number and photos.
Off-Grid Power products are covered by the consumer guarantees under the Australian Consumer Law. Where a fault is confirmed, we'll arrange a repair, replacement or refund and cover the reasonable return freight. Our 12-month Mr Swagman warranty covers our own camping gear, not the Off-Grid Power range.
