Self-Charging
Battery System

Recharging
the Battery - Can you watch DVDs at night and still
start your Spaceship in the morning? Where can we recharge
the battery? Don't worry - in a Spaceship this isn't
a problem: Spaceships are set up with two batteries,
one runs the CD/DVD player, fridge and internal lights,
and the other battery starts the engine. This means
you can operate the fridge and watch a DVD while the
engine is not running as it uses the auxiliary battery,
but the Spaceship will always start on the other battery,
and then self-charge the auxiliary battery as you drive.
This saves you money and gives you more freedom as it
means you do not have to pay for a powered site to charge
your vehicle like you would in an ordinary camper van.

Seat Design

Swivel
Seat Design - Maximising space is important is you want
to fit a full double bed and provide good storage space
- yet still have seating for four and an internal table
and chairs. Spaceships have a unique seating system
in the back, which enable them to seat up to four people,
(great for small families or extra friends - see 4 berth
sleeping option) when the seat is facing forward. The
seat can then swivel and face out the side door - you
can then set up the inside table and use it when you
cook and eat dinner. Finally you can swivel it to face
the back door and extend the bed internally for sleeping.
If you are an extra-tall person you have the option
to extend the bed externally with the rear awning and
also swivel the seat backwards to give you an longer
bed. This unique seating arrangement allows us to have
a permanent frame through the back of the vehicle which
makes it is easy and quick to assemble your bed without
having to rearrange your gear. All this makes a Spaceship
very user-friendly and practical so you can make the
most of your travels.
