Mobile split air conditioner for campers: quieter warm nights

UNOLD has introduced the 12K mobile split air conditioner, designed for use in campers and rental homes where permanent installation is not allowed. The unit consists of an indoor and outdoor module connected by a hose, requiring no wall drilling or facade mounting. It cools spaces up to 42 sq m with 3.5 kW capacity, and also offers heating, dehumidifying, and ventilation. The key benefit is lower noise compared to monoblock units, as the compressor is placed outside. Limitation: the hose is fixed, preventing wall-hole installation — only window use.

Motorhome sinks through wooden walkway in Drenthe nature reserve, removal complicated

A motorhome that sank through a wooden walkway (vlonderpad) last week in the Grolloërveen nature reserve in the province of Drenthe will remain there for now. A safe removal method has not yet been found. The incident occurred Thursday evening when the driver took a wrong turn onto the walkway, designed only for hikers and cyclists. The wooden planks broke under the vehicle's weight. According to the forester, the campers were fined for driving on a prohibited path. The location complicates recovery: the reserve is a fragile protected peatland area, and heavy equipment cannot enter without precautions.
