Coast Customs 12 Volt

About Us

Your Local 12V Specialist

Coast Custom 12 Volt is a dedicated 12V electrical business not a general mechanic, not a parts store. Just one specialist who knows off-grid power systems inside out.

One specialist. Zero compromises.

Nathan Donahoo started Coast Custom 12 Volt because he saw too many caravans and 4WDs fitted with systems that looked the part but failed when it mattered — in the middle of nowhere, days from the nearest town.

With a background in marine electrics on the Sunshine Coast — where systems have to work no matter what — Nathan brought the same engineering discipline to the 12V world. Every build is designed to handle real conditions, not just the driveway.

He’s fully mobile across Warwick, Toowoomba, and the Southern Downs. No workshop drop-offs, no waiting weeks. He comes to you, assesses the job properly, and builds it right.

Our Story

The name “Coast Custom” comes from Nathan’s roots on the Sunshine Coast, where he spent years working on marine electrical systems. Boats demand a different standard — everything has to be watertight, reliable, and built for sustained off-grid use. That’s the mindset he brings to every 12V install.

When Nathan relocated to Warwick and the Darling Downs region, he recognised a gap in the market. The area is home to serious grey nomads, working farmers, and hard-core 4WD tourers — people who need 12V systems that perform for months on end, not just a weekend.

Coast Custom was built to serve that customer. Not the person who wants the cheapest option — the one who wants it done properly, once.

What We Stand For

01

Listen first, spec second

Every job starts with a proper conversation. We want to understand how you actually use your vehicle or van — how far you travel, what you run, where you go — before we recommend anything.

02

Quality components, always

We only work with brands we trust: Victron Energy, PowerPaul Australia, Bushman 12V fridges. These aren’t the cheapest options — they’re the ones that still work perfectly after 50,000km of corrugated dirt road.

03

We come to you

No workshop drop-offs, no waiting rooms. We’re fully mobile across Warwick, Toowoomba, and the Southern Downs. You tell us where the vehicle is — we take it from there.

Trusted Brands

We’re an authorised supplier and installer for the brands that serious off-gridders trust. Not afterthoughts these are the components we spec into every system we design.

Victron Energy

Industry-leading inverters, solar controllers & battery management

Bushman 12V Fridges

Authorised supplier & installer — premium Australian 12V refrigeration

PowerPaul Australia

Australian-made lithium batteries — built for touring, not just storage

AS/NZS 3001.2:2022

Every installation is fully compliant

AS/NZS 3001.2:2022 is the Australian standard for caravan and RV electrical systems, the same standard professional caravan manufacturers build to. Every system we install is engineered and certified to this standard. That means your insurance is protected, your system is safe, and the wiring won’t let you down 1,000km from the nearest town. Most competitors don’t do this. We do, on every job.
