I've got 2 of the same basic model of Maxxfan that were there when I bought the van. They move a lot of air, but have some quirks. The one I can't figure out is that sometimes they will start up when I turn them on, run for 3-10 seconds, then shut off. At first I thought it turned off if there...

I've finished my modifications to the pre-built van I bought a couple of years ago. I want to use the space better, the cabinets it came with hold some stuff tidily, but they left a large amount of space unused and unusable since I can't stand up or even set up a decent sized table in there. I...

Hello everyone! My name's Carme and I'm starting my build to transition to car life. I'll be starting out in the hatchback I own now, and will save for a Prius to do a build in. I've been thinking about nomad life for years and I've had some practice with camping in my car so I'm finally...
