Please help & share: A perfect little Van Dweller (or any home) Companion. Experienced. Stays by your side, very polite, LOVES my van… and other dogs. Watch out around kids tho. Fully vetted, (neutered, shots, on flea & worm prevention) I spent years dog ‘whispering’ for a living. This is a...

I was looking to see if it was a late 90s or early 2k model Chevy. My advice would have been: get a new piece of tape and carry on. ( outside of CA). 😁

Well- I’m baaa-aack. A-gain. Prepping van for a trek of (hopefully) some duration.   First on my list- Decided to FINALLY go for it and remove my bench seat electric Conversion van bed. The lack of storage is insane.   Sunday was one of life’s Best days ever. If I had known I’d be THIS...

Just FYI , for those who were kind enough to answer: I LOVED that little cheapie fridge, and decided to just donate the old one to a friend, and buy another one :):) This time, however, I went with a company who has customer service and sells lots of industrial strength type items. They just...

I guess…. I get very attached to things I love? Hey- my mom was mentally ill, okay?! :);)- lol Always pressured me to “take good care” of what I had, cause I ”might not get another” one. I had a house one time that took a few years of Despising paneling before I thrilled to what 4 good...

What a Great thread!! :):):)

Sooo glad my van is an oldie!  I detest warning lights from the dash!!  Makes me unnecessarily nervous. (Which, is why I’m questioning here!) :):)

He was my Hero.  :heart:

Battery Cables are connected from battery to inverter.   Solar panels have a built-in charge controller (on backside) with wires leading out to end in Alligator clips ( for attaching to battery).    I am aware of the ability (although looks like a PITA) to change them.     I’m just trying to...

Yes, there are connectors, and they are unplugged. No problems atm. BTW…. Van is a 1999- so more ‘old school’. I’m trying to decide if a few more inches of sq footage is worth it. Lol. I have about 3’ of it wrapped and twist tied for now so….. ????? Next. ? (Maybe I should have put this...

Reflectix alone. Paint one side black, if you must. Switch sides at night. I love how mine fit right into the glass without a bunch of fuss. I can just pulled off at will. :) Can’t really see the silver they tint on mine. This is well into my second vehicle set.

Hi-You’ll love it here. Welcome.

Hi- Welcome! :)

Should I have any concerns for other electronic components in my van getting weird, due to cutting/capping the wires to removed rear bench seat?   Thank you. 

:huh:  My 200w solar panels ( suitcase w/built in controller) has alligator clips for hooking to my 100 ah Bluetop battery. Battery is attached to 800 watt inverter.    Question: Should I just be happy plugging in whatever I need (to use or charge) into the inverter- instead of worrying about...

I always base those sort of decisions on what I call: “The Accident Criteria”: If it’s probably only going to come loose in such a severe accident that I’d probably die anyway- I don’t worry about it. Everything else get secured.:):)

Only you know for sure.  I, too, consider all this ‘junk’. Lol.  We can either let it paralyze us or get going.   Frankly, from what I see: TV makes you think the worst- and people who are OUT there don’t seem to have as many issues as we might think.   Sometimes life just needs its space and...

:D  So after nearly 4 years of having my high top Chevy van, I finally made the big decision to pull that seat out of the back!  Although it made a pretty nice bed with the plywood and memory foam, I was just completely sick of absolutely no storage underneath.   Honestly, I don’t remember too...

Hahahahaha!!

It seems to be ‘cycling’ fine, I hear compressor kick in. It runs about 8 min off, and 2 minutes on. Guess I’ll just find a replacement- I like this model. Maybe the newer readout panel is better. I dunno. I just want to make sure “I’m” not the problem, before $$ :):) Thanks TX. Do...
