    12 Volt and Tiny ACs for Nomads

    Bob recently posted a video about someone with a window air conditioner in the window of their van or RV. I was like, "So 2015." I saw a van conversion video where a conversion company installs these: KingtecUSA Air Conditioner KTF-1 https://kingtecusa.com/product/ktf-1 Looks like it's...

    Freezer Options/Convert Dometic?

What are recommendations for a separate freezer, with the limitation that the camper is 14 ft (maybe 11 feet inside) -- very tiny! What about a 12V (cigarette...
