I could not agree more. Off grid, in and out, grocery stores become refrigerators and wifi is everywhere.
When I was half a year in I gleefully ripped the shower out in lue of a Planet fitness member ship for nationwide showers and a place for an inverter and battery bank.

Re: New from the East Coast
Mountaindent. Thats awesome. A lot of people discouraged me and said this and that couldn't be done. They were wrong. I lived in this thing full time, no camp grounds, city to city odd job to odd job and it worked and works perfectly. I spent nights in random closed business using wifi(or my cell ph...

Re: New from the East Coast
Hey great idea! Thanks for replying. Check out the mods a few comments up. There are pictures. Solar panels and the 32 inch samsung are the real kickers. This van is nearly fully mechanically fully restored. Brand new: transmission, water pump, heater core, fuel filter, starter, battery, distributor...

Re: Interior lights dont work.

I am still not exactly sure how its wired up but I was informed that a jumper wire was indeed necessary. And it turns out that it was correct...

Currently this is what i see next to my circuit breaker. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v212/Kadaken/Mobile%20Uploads/20160830_004916_zps7yzp28le.jpg Ido not know why the wire at the top center is cut or the white wire at the bottom is cut.

Re: Interior lights dont work.
Its hard for me know tell exactly how it is wired up because the shop that did it won't draw or write a wiring diagram for me. After investigating a bit it appears that the four house batteries in the back are connected to my power inverter. Also there is a 50 amp circuit breaker that is connected f...

Re: Check Engine light
Interesting. So is there a way to reinstall my coach battery and have the generator start and recharge on that battery?
I want the truck battery's only job to be starting the engine.

This means the battery is getting depleted every time i start the generator and then when i go to start the van it causes another depletion but then the alternator charges it. Mostly from a low percentage of power. My uneduc...
