Tim and Ruth Ellen, the husband-and-wife team behind PinDrop®, are no different. They spend their days designing and fabricating award-winning luxury micro campers. Headquartered in an historic 120-year-old poured concrete building, they are intentionally working to bring it back to life through adaptive reuse.

At PinDrop Travel Trailers, every design decision comes down to one question: does it stand up to adventure? From our award-winning construction to our precision-built components, we craft each PinDrop® to go wherever the road (or lack thereof) leads. That’s why, when it comes to the accessories that complete the PinDrop experience, we trust ARB — a brand that, like us, is built on quality, innovation, and a deep love for exploration.

Known for their durability, efficiency, and smart design, Victron components give Pin Drop owners the confidence to venture beyond the campground.
