    Short trip 2012 Kia Sedona

    Got screens framed or sewn and installed and got a multi function tabletop built. From the passenger seat I can tilt it for a laptop work desk, from the bed I can have it level to cook or work, finally when traveling it clips into place over the shelves to keep everything from falling out.

    Took a bit of head scratching on how to mount it but the blackout/privacy curtain is up in the van. Might see if I have enough of the stars fabric left over to cover the back of the panels with it. If not I may order some.

    And they have Green Chili Cheeseburgers and green chili cheese fries! I prefer the Owl Burger from the Owl Cafe in San Antonio NM but the ones in ALBQ are great too.

    GeoCaching

    Pretty simple really. Grab the app for your phone, pick a "name", grab a GPS (or your phone), and start hunting. https://www.geocaching.com/sites/education/en/

    I managed to get everything back in today and the fridge does fit between the front seats with the passenger seat turned around. It doesn't go as far forwards because it hits the seat tilt lever and I have to scootch it back to move the seat away from the dash but that's ok.

    Yup I know! As a daily driver that spot is a catch all for all my random junk! I've got a F40C4TMP 12V Car Fridge Portable Fridge Refrigerator 30 Quart(28L), Portable Freezer (-7.6℉~50℉) with 12/24V DC and 110-240 AC, Travel Refrigerator. It just fits between my front two seats after I took out...

    Well I finally got all the wiring run and hooked up and the system tested and running. Now to clean up all my mess, vacuum, and put everything back in the van. Here's a short clip for anyone interested. The description lists the major components used.

    12v light strips

    Sounds simple but are you connecting them in the right polarity when you are connecting them directly?

    Correction. Got my second battery today and it did have bolts so I went back and checked the packing for my first one and it did too but they had somehow gotten stuck down in the packing material and I missed them.

    WOO HOO it fits! LOL Anyway, all the gear, switches, breakers, and buss bars are mounted. Second battery is supposed to be here today. Now to cut, terminate, and hook up wires. Oh, FYI, the Renogy batteries don't come with bolts so if you order them you'll need bolts. 5/15" I believe.

    My first attempt at van camping

    You might look at USB rechargeable fans to save on battery buying. I picked one up on Amazon really cheap and it's supposed to last a few days on a charge but I haven't tested that yet,
