The questions people ask us most often about what arrives and what it adds up to.
Is installation included in the price?
No. Sensa Nomad is sold as a self-install kit, and the tier price covers the brain with the Nomad software installed. If you would rather not do the install yourself, our trade partners fit Sensa systems, and we offer a design service for £99 to plan the build first.
What does a complete system actually come to?
A typical all-in Sensa Nomad Base build comes to about £819: the Core at £699, a touchscreen or tablet at about £80, and a relay module at about £40. That figure does not include sensors, which depend entirely on what you want to monitor.
Are the devices included?
No. Sensa controls and integrates the kit in your van rather than replacing it, so the tier price does not include your Victron gear, lighting, heating, pumps, router or sensors. This is deliberate: you keep hardware you already own, and you buy the rest from whoever you like. Our rated devices list covers what we have tested.
Is there a subscription to use the control system?
No. Sensa Nomad has no subscription and no licence fee to control your own vehicle. You buy the kit once and it keeps running, offline and indefinitely. There is one optional annual plan alongside it, the Sensa Nomad Support Plan, which covers the five things that cannot run inside the van: remote access, remote support from us, cloud backups, the Nomad software updates we deliver and Radar Premium. The first year is included in the price of every Nomad system, and a system whose plan has lapsed carries on controlling the vehicle exactly as before, on the version it is on. Sensa Studio Premium is a separate optional subscription to a different product.
What does the Nomad Support Plan cost after the first year?
£99 a year on Sensa Nomad Base, £129 on Sensa Nomad Pro, £169 on Sensa Nomad Vision and £199 on Sensa Nomad AI. It covers remote access to your own van, remote support from Sensa, cloud backups of your configuration, the Nomad software updates we deliver and Radar Premium licences (one on Base, two on Pro, two on Vision and two on AI). The first year is included with the system, and renewing is optional. Full detail on the Support Plan page.
How does Sensa compare on price to other camper control systems?
Most camper control systems are sealed hardware bundles. A budget control panel is typically £300 to £400 for fixed switching and basic monitoring, an extended panel £700 to £900, and marine-grade digital switching £1,300 to £3,000 or more but closed and installer-led. An all-in Nomad build sits at roughly £819 to £2,000 with a broader feature set. See the full comparison.
