Mink 2.0 Camper Specs
Ultra-lite travel trailers

Mink 2.0 camper is designed for rough Icelandic terrain, its unpredictable weather and remoteness, but still offers functionality, comfort, and direct “touch” with the surrounding nature....

This is the continuation of the presentation of Mink 2.0 Camper from the previous page:

--> Mink 2.0 Camper- Example of Nordic Design

All- Season Camper
         Thanks to good thermal insulation as well as heating and ventilation systems, Mink 2.0 teardrop is truly an All-Season camper. Conceived in Iceland, designed in Sweden, and built in Latvia, it’s targeting Scandinavian markets (and obviously Scandinavian climate). The lack of a freshwater tank seems to eliminate not only extra weight but first of all - problems with freezing temperatures (and so more “pounds/kilograms” and energy).

      The potential condensation problem (very real in northern climate zones) was solved by the ventilation and heating systems. The latter splits the forced airflow the way to keep the interior temperature profile relatively uniform, preventing this way the area underneath the mattress from becoming a cold condensation zone! On the other hand, the ventilation system helps the evacuation of the humidity outdoors….

Notes:

1. ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) is a thermoplastic and amorphous polymer. It is very structurally sturdy, has a strong resistance to corrosive chemicals and/or physical impacts, and is easily machined, sanded, glued, and painted. Also, it is rather harmless and fully recyclable!
2. PMMA (Polymethyl Methacrylate): It’s a see-through, high-gloss Acrylic material characterized by excellent transparency, stronger-than-glass glass strength, and scratch resistance. It’s also more than twice as light as traditional glass.

Heating/Ventilation System

• Sidewalls AirFlow™ Integrated Static Ventilation System
• Webasto, Diesel-fueled, Integrated Heating system w/ thermostat (Optional)

Notes:

1. AirFlow™ is a 2-way system. It creates higher interior pressure when on the road, to prevent the penetration of sand and dust. However, when not driving, it creates a lower interior pressure to assure steady airflow into the camper.
2. The forced-air system runs on Diesel (the tank is located on the front of the camper). It distributes about 70% of hot air along the ceiling, and the remaining 30% along the floor (under the mattress). This way the mattress is kept “pleasurably -worm” (appreciated on cold nights) as well as, by keeping the entire body of the shell warmer, it’s preventing condensation.

Mink 2.0 camper off the beaten path....

Summarizing: Mink 2.0 Teardrop is an extremely well-designed camper for the journey to nature. The minimalistic design does not offer all you may need on the road (especially troubling may be a lack of water). However, despite some shortcomings, Mink 2.0 isn’t just a regular “budget” camper. Yes, it is not an embodiment of luxury, but certainly, it’s a fascinating work of art and imagination turned into a comfortable “bed on wheels”.
