When we last camped with ehu (and the only time so far!) we borrowed all the bits and bobs from my father so I don't really know what we had.

Now I have to kit ourselves out.

I am planning on buying this main lead (is it ok?) but I also think we need some kind of converter so I can run my 12v coolbox off our ehu.

I do realise that there have been huge threads about this topic but they got sooo complicated that I completely lost the plot with them. Please could somebody help in simple terms? I'd much appreciate it! I just want to have the right things and be safe.

The EHU lead you intend to buy is fine, all you'll need to run your coolbox is a simple 240v - 12v transformer to give you the 12v socket connection like you have in a car. See the link below, decent price too, most camping stores will sell them.

Thank you very much! I've added it to my shopping list, now I just have to run the list past my husband so I can get the money. Hmmmm, not so simple!!! ;-) It's so easy to "need" so much isn't it!
