No Visa needed just a current photo with at least 1 front tooth missing.
Basic mountain lingo with clenched teeth to keep the flies out spoken by most locals.
Melbournians will have a distict latte lingo. Make sure you drop at least 1 coffee type in each sentence.
Weather :-) At that time of year???
Could be fine sunny and mid to high 20's or low teens with a biting wind and thats just on the first day.
Expect low single figures or possible minuses at night especially if clear, no matter how warm the day.Chris220220 Finally a Prado owner

Hi there're mrs fido, yes it does run on 12v BUT I havnt used it on 12V before. Apparently I can just get another power cord cut the point end off it and solder some alligator clips on and connect it direct to a battery or the other option is to run through an inverter. I will definately give it a try either way and let you know how it goes. Apparently running the dehumidifier chews up a bit more power due to the heating process. I do use it without this some times but if the weather is extremely cool/cold then you need to use it other wise he will wake up coughing due to a dry throat. AND he needs to use it if he's suppose to be using one. Can be deadly in more ways the one if he doesn't, eg fall asleep while driving. I was really bad prior to using theachine. Using it makes a massive difference for my self. He may be only mild so not as bad. I was falling asleep at morning tea at work, meetings etc but thankfully never behind the wheel. Sorry I didn't reply before I some how missed the email back, I'll blame the wife for opening it and not telling me lol..... Cheers SteveFace lift 150 Prado V6 auto. No mods yet

Thanks Steve for the advice, I will pass it on to HWNL. When he does use the machine he wakes up after a few hours and rips the mask off, says he doesn't even realise he's doing it. I'm just concerned because he is an asthmatic, I'm hoping it won't be too damp for him in the High Country come April.
