I've stripped out the 2×8W fluorescents, and installed a COB LED.

I've also made up some LED strip lights that fix to the camper poles by very strong magnets and diffuse the light through the inner cotton sheet.

Looking forward to seeing how it works out in practice…

Thread resurrection!

I have a 2006 Conway Cruiser (rebadged Pennine Pullman) and have made a couple of minor mods to the wardrobe, rather than removing it.

I used a chock/block (although domestic junction box would be better)

I have a 2006 Conway Cruiser (rebadged Pennine Pullman) and have made a couple of minor mods to the wardrobe, rather than removing it.

I've made up some plywood shelves, sanded, varnished and waxed. These are removeable for the journey, as we often put sleeping bags in there when on the road.



To reduce the power consumption for non-EHU use, and to improve the quality of the light, I've stripped out the 2×8W fluorescents, and installed a COB LED driven by a constant-current driver that consumes about 6W, mounted to an aluminium plate for heatsinking:



I've also made up some LED strip lights that fix to the camper poles by very strong magnets and diffuse the light through the inner cotton sheet (at least, that's the plan, haven't tried it yet!). To control these without having wires and plugs everywhere, I've put a three-way domestic light switch in the side of the wardrobe, with three plugs on cables exiting at the top back corner. Once wired up, there should be no visible cables:
