Get more from your work ute with a custom ute canopy fitout in Perth. We install dual battery systems, inverters, outlets, lighting, fridges, communications and other accessories around the tools you use each day. Tell us what needs power, where you work and how your canopy is set up. We will plan a clean, practical fitout that makes long days on the road easier.
Charge tool batteries and run accessories without flattening your starter battery.
We size the system around your chargers, fridge, lights and other electrical loads.
Outlets, switches and wiring positioned for safe, convenient access.
Allow room for extra lighting, communications, solar or accessories as needs change.
No two ute canopy fitouts need the same equipment. A metro tradie may only need a dual battery, inverter, outlets and lighting. A mobile mechanic or remote technician may also need Starlink, solar charging, UHF communications, an air compressor, a fridge and high-output work lights.
We will check your vehicle, canopy layout and expected electrical load before recommending a setup. You will receive a clear quote covering the agreed equipment and installation work. No mystery switches and no collection of cables that only one bloke in the workshop understands.
We can keep your canopy setup simple or build a complete powered workspace. Every system starts with the equipment you need to run and the amount of time you expect to use it between drives.
Our ute canopy fitout services include:
Build your ute canopy around the way you use it. We create setups for work, touring, camping, four-wheel driving and weekend activities. Options include 12V dual battery systems, inverters, lighting, refrigeration, solar power, storage and vehicle Starlink.
Charge tool batteries, light your canopy and keep equipment organised between jobs.

Voltaic builds ute canopy fitouts for Perth tradies, mobile technicians, remote workers and commercial fleets. Our qualified auto electricians plan each system around the vehicle, canopy and equipment rather than installing the same kit in every ute.
We work with common utes and cab-chassis models used across Australia, from current releases to familiar workhorses still earning their keep. If your ute is not listed, get in touch and we can confirm whether we can help.
A reliable ute canopy electrical fitout starts with the equipment you need to run. We check the power requirements, available space and vehicle charging system before selecting the battery, inverter and accessories. 01
Let us know what you drive, what type of canopy you have and where the vehicle works. A metro service ute has different needs from a vehicle spending several days away from mains power. 02
We identify each tool charger, fridge, pie warmer, laptop, light, compressor and communications device that needs power. Bring the equipment details or photos if you are unsure about its power use. 03
We work out how much power the equipment may draw and how long you expect to use it. This helps us recommend a suitable battery capacity, charging system and inverter. 04
We check the available mounting space, canopy construction, existing wiring and cable routes. We also look for old or unsuitable wiring that may affect the new installation. 05
We position batteries, outlets, switches and accessories where they remain protected and easy to reach. The layout also needs to work around drawers, tools and equipment access. 06
We provide a quote covering the agreed system and installation work. You can choose the core equipment first and add optional accessories where the budget allows. 07
Our auto electricians install the components, protect the circuits and test the connected equipment. We check charging performance, battery monitoring, outlets, lighting and accessories before handover. 08
We explain the switches, outlets, battery monitor and charging system. We will also show you how to manage the electrical load and avoid draining the auxiliary battery during long periods away from the vehicle.
Voltaic Auto Electrical & Air Conditioning is a proudly Western Australian owned and operated business established in 2017. We provide ute canopy fitouts, dual battery installations, Starlink systems, UHF radios, lighting, cameras, fleet services and heavy-duty auto electrical work across Perth.
Owner Josh Doutch has more than 20 years of hands-on experience and holds trade qualifications as an automotive electrician and mobile plant mechanic. His experience includes underground mining equipment, heavy-duty machinery and modern vehicle electrical systems.
Our team focuses on safe workmanship, practical advice and clear communication. We explain what your ute needs, confirm costs before additional work proceeds and make sure you understand the finished system before leaving the workshop.
A ute canopy fitout can include a dual battery system, inverter, 12V outlets, USB charging, canopy lighting, toolbox lighting, a fridge, pie warmer, Starlink, UHF radio, solar power, an air compressor, work lights and cameras. We recommend the equipment based on how you use the vehicle.
Our main role is fitting electrical systems and accessories into ute canopies. If you already have a canopy or plan to purchase one, contact us before the build begins. Early planning can make it easier to allow space for batteries, cable routes, outlets and electrical equipment.
Yes, we can work with many existing aluminium and steel ute canopies. We will inspect the available space, canopy construction, existing equipment and wiring before confirming the installation options.
The cost depends on the battery capacity, inverter size, charging system and accessories included. A basic battery and lighting setup will cost less than a remote-work system with Starlink, solar, communications, refrigeration and multiple power outlets. We will provide a quote after discussing your vehicle and equipment.
The right battery size depends on the equipment you want to run and how long you use it while the vehicle is parked. A fridge and a few lights use less power than several tool chargers, a large inverter and Starlink operating together. We calculate the expected load before recommending the battery.
The inverter must handle the combined wattage and start-up demand of the equipment you plan to use. Send us photos of the rating labels on your chargers and appliances. We can use those details to recommend a suitable inverter.
A correctly installed dual battery system runs the canopy accessories from an auxiliary battery. This helps protect the starter battery so you can still start the ute after using lights, chargers or a fridge while parked.
Yes, solar can support the auxiliary battery when the vehicle remains parked for long periods. The available solar capacity depends on the canopy roof space, panel position, shading and battery system. We can also install an input for a portable solar panel where that suits the vehicle better.
Yes. We can plan the Starlink mounting, 12V power supply and cable routing around the ute and canopy. Starlink still needs a suitable service plan and a clear view of the sky when in use.
Yes, subject to an inspection. We can assess the current battery, charger, inverter, wiring and circuit protection before recommending an upgrade. Older components may need replacement if they cannot support the new equipment safely.
We can fit out one ute or develop a repeatable specification for a commercial fleet. Fleet fitouts can use a consistent layout and equipment list while allowing for differences between ute models, canopies and working roles.
The installation time depends on the system size, canopy access, existing wiring and accessory availability. A basic setup takes less time than a full remote-work fitout. We will provide an expected timeframe with your quote.
Warranty coverage depends on the products and installation work included in the fitout. We will explain the applicable product and workmanship warranty terms when preparing your quote.
