All-electric camping gets a solar upgrade: The 2027 Pebble Flow
The Pebble Flow has a 45 kWh LFP battery and can even charge an EV.
There is a growing desire to incorporate electrification into camping experiences. Many have been disturbed by the noise and disruption of traditional generators during the night. In recent years, electric vans have been featured frequently, with conversions and camper trims being discussed. Kia and Winnebago have showcased concepts, while Volkswagen is adding a camper trim to its electric ID series. Trailers with electric options have also been in development, though some, like Colorado Teardrop, have not materialized.
The Pebble Flow, introduced in 2025, is now set to receive an upgrade in 2027. This streamlined design is built on a 45 kWh lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery pack. For 2027 models, this battery can be replenished by up to 4 kW of solar panels, which proponents believe would generate more electricity than is typically used in a day of camping. The initial models could be equipped with an optional 1.1 kWh panel on the roof. The new update enhances this with an additional 2 kWh through four portable panels.
