The Ventyra R1, a portable micro wind turbine weighing 1 kg, has raised hundreds of thousands of euros on Kickstarter. It starts generating power at wind speeds of 11 km/h, delivering up to 75 W via USB ports. Designed for off-grid camper power, it offers an alternative to solar panels in low-light conditions.

Life in a Campervan: 2 Years on the Road — Real Experience and Tips

Two years on the road with a cat named Zhuzu — and not a single day of wanting to go back.

Campervans on the Karst: Parking is allowed, the problem is enforcing the rules

A reader of Trieste.news responded to an article about the growing number of campervans on the Karst, stating that parking a campervan is legal if conditions of Article 185 of the Highway Code are met. He emphasized that overnighting inside the vehicle is not camping if rules are not violated, and called for enforcement of violations rather than new bans.

Voghera faces camper parking shortage

Voghera, Italy, is experiencing an influx of camper tourists, but parking infrastructure is insufficient. Moreno Baggini, owner of the 'La Palazzina' facility, said his pitches have been constantly occupied and he plans to add more. Tourists from across Europe stop in Voghera due to its strategic location, but most parking areas lack services and security. Overnight stay with amenities costs 15 euros.

Around twenty fines issued to motorhomes and caravans on Regina road

Since August 4, an ordinance on the Regina state road in Italy prohibits motorhomes, caravans, and vehicles with trailers from heading towards Como between 6:30 a.m. and 9 p.m. About twenty fines have been issued since then. Yesterday, police stopped two motorhomes with Dutch plates and a caravan with German plates, each fined 87 euros and forced to turn around. Signage has proven ineffective, so regular checks are needed.
