very cold day today in central florida. well especially for florida

Hello everyone, My brother lives in ohio by the michigan border. he's looking for a free camping location that he can go to and camp with his kids and get away for a while. I tried looking but i was not able to find anything for him and he's only got a tiny cell phone so he really can't surf...

hello everyone, didn't mean to start any arguments. i was looking for a reason to keep the portal unit but after the first set of responses it seemed pointless to try and it was return. i don't have the money to do much or really with everything going on anything with an older vehicle like...

hello is there a video or how on the enclosure building? fyi my van is a conversion van but the only seats in there are the 4 captain sets the bench seat was not with the van when i bought it. also i don't have it set up for van dwelling or anything like that, i just use it when i need too...

Hello everyone, thanks for the advise. after posting this the portable unit is probably being returned it was just bought and as using it in the house its not that good. i think a lot of heat escapes back into the place being cooled by the thin exhaust hose. i was thinking a window unit...

Hello everyone I have an ac related question. I have a 1997 dodge ram van b2500 conversion van (its got the 130 or 160amp alternator not the standard 90ish amp one). the van also was abused by the prior owners before i bought her and gave her some tending loving care. anyways the ac does not...

he also has a website and a link to somewhere where you can personally ask him questions. its like a forum of some sort but its on his website for anyone thats interested. don't have a link but if you google his name you'll find it.

i have a 1997 dodge 2500 van and i can say it can be a pain due to its weird naming. depends where you go they have different names for it, in fact Firestone told me the van he was looking at didn't exist, he grabbed the vin number in order to bring it up in their system. i bought mine at a...

I saw this today on website and found it also on amazon and it got me to wondering. if anyone has used one of these on their van to get some extra juice and then i thought wonder if that would work mounting it to the top of a van and letting it charge batteries up when the vehicle is moving as...

I am not going to disagree with anyone who's said anything as i don't have the experience. first off i am not a van dweller so my van is not being used like everyone else although i'd still like to get it set up for short term living camping etc. my van is a 1997 dodge ram van b2500 when i...

i used to play d&d in my grandmothers cabin where she lived. it was so long ago but the cabin really made the same take on a great atmosphere. no water, no electricity, etc. not a huge cabin one large king or queen sized bed in the downstairs and a sleeping loft up (no cushions for the...

i'll be stuck here in orlando, not really a van dweller but love the website, someday though just maybe even if only on weekends or something. this one scares me too i'll be working all the way to sunday morning.

if it runs seems like a good price. maybe its my area down here in florida but most astra/safari van's are more than 2grand. anything under that and either you found a gem someone just wanted gone or there is issues. just remember like any old vehicle expect to throw money at it regardless of...

Now is the time to do a retro game one with a pi. Not because the pi3 is supposedly 50% faster than the pi 2 but because the newest version of retropie has a nifty addition to it called game wizard. While previous versions you had to download the roms into the folders yourself (you can still...

the product below i ordered from amazon. Roaches just can't get enough of the bait. never seen it with anything else. you can put the bait next to food and they'll go for the bait even fight each other over it. then they take it back to the hiding places and die and other roaches eat them...

asked on the kickstarter website for the mini ac Would the Zero Breeze still cool 50 sqft down from 105 F to 64 F in 15-20 min in South Florida summer with heavy humidity? We intend to use the Zero Breeze in a conversion van answer And to address your later question, sure thing. It will work...

here is a link to a kickstarter for something that might be of use to van dwellers especially if they have shore power or have access to power to charge it up and use the batter later. if the ac in my van proves to be too expensive to fix i might look into something like this...

no i haven't done anything regarding that. still working on jeep repairs to know what i have left. hopefully next week i'll get someone to look at the ac and tell me a price.

i think to get the vans ac system itself up and running would be to expensive. the electrical connection is melted probably due to the piece if wood wedged in it. on top of that all the freon is gone so there is a leak somewhere then if all that was fixed we have the vacuum lines as you cant...

first i am not a true mechanic so buying most stuff as a salvage yard isn't likely since you have to pull your own stuff at most and they have horrid conditions at them. my first objective is to get ac in the van when driving and others have said a power inverter hooked to the battery with a...
