Nigel Whibley OwnerSA RV Electrics is led by Nigel Whibley, a caravan and camping electrical specialist. He quotes the job, leads the work on your rig, and brings in trusted extra hands when a build calls for it.
On the road, somewhere in SAIt started with a passion for 12-volt upgrades on cars and 4x4s.
In 2011 that passion became a business, BITSUS Customs Auto Installs, run alongside Nigel's day job as a printer technician, a career that ran for thirteen years.
In 2017 the printer work gave way to 4x4s, caravans and campers full time. In June 2024 the business became SA RV Electrics, a name that better reflects the caravan and camping work the crew loves so much.
If you've been around a while, you might still know it as BITSUS, or BITSUS Customs, and some of the older Google reviews use that name. Same people, new name.
Nigel loves caravanning and camping himself, so he knows what it's like to pull up somewhere with no powered site and need everything to just work. That's why the off-grid caravan builds and 4x4 touring builds are the jobs he enjoys most.
Nigel quotes the job, leads the work and is the one you ring about it later. Bigger builds bring in trusted extra hands, so the team is whoever the job needs. Most work happens in driveways, at worksites and in caravan parks across Adelaide's north and the rest of South Australia, and the bigger builds go into the Angle Vale workshop by appointment.
“Do it once, do it right” is how Nigel signed off the Hitch Hika build, a van that came in with 60Ah of usable battery and left with 690Ah.
Every build is labelled, configured and fully tested before handover. The caravan work is AS/NZS 3001.2:2022 compliant, and Nigel is a trained and authorised Victron installer.
"Being trusted to go this big on a build with only 154 km on the clock is something I never dreamed of 16 years ago."

It's on the ute, the business cards and every build sheet, and it's the reason the crew keeps doing the big off-grid jobs.
"I love giving people confidence in their setups to travel far and wide, with ongoing support long after the installation is completed. Giving people the freedom to travel and camp wherever they please without power restrictions is my best motivation for the work that I do."
Nigel
Not every job is a big off-grid van. A caravan kept light on purpose, a motorhome upgrade and a Ranger with factory-switched roof lights.
