A teardrop trailer is a small camper. The name comes from the streamlined shape, and the type dates back at least to the 1930 s. As cars get smaller, storage space more expensive, and recreational time more precious, a new appreciation is growing for the efficiency of really good teardrop campers.A fan of small boats, small cars, and small houses, we found the concept of a teardrop camper irresistible. Think of it as a big step up from a tent in terms of comfort and utility. But it s so compact and light that I could tow it behind a small car 300 Kg.The result is the 1.5 x 2.4m teardrop you see here, and it s a lot more elegant than the common canned ham teardrop designs. Drawn around a 1.5 x 2m air mattress, this little camper is small on the outside but surprisingly roomy on the inside. Two adults up to 6 6 (198cm) can stretch out in great luxury. Large doors on both sides and a 300 mm square hatch on the roof provide easy access and copious ventilation. There s room for a 12-volt electrical system to run lights, fans, a stereo, and charging plugs for devices. We also have fitted 220 v access.A large galley (kitchen) occupies the locker in the rear of the trailer. While this space could be customised in many different ways. In the photos is a camper we built with 220v Microwave and Snappycheff. For car-camping, this will be a giant improvement over a tent. No fooling around setting up a tent: arrive at destination. Park. Open door. Climb in. Go to sleep.We manufacture the Teardrop cover, nosecone cover and mattress in-house its optional.Id Subtitle 1271258433View More
