This is our beloved camper that we are so happy you are taking to time to look at; we hope you love her like we do.
We have used bamboo ply not only as a feature but also because it is lightweight and sustainable. The kitchen work top is also bamboo and it feels like a proper kitchen. More worktop than some studio apartments!
It is registered as a box van as is very difficult to change registration since last year. We have no issues with insurance and it is fully insured as a campervan, we can give you details of who we are insured through.
We built this van with the plans of going skiing in it. She has a super efficient LPG heater which is incredible cheap to run and heats up the van in no time at all. Plus she is very well insulated with 50mm insulation all round and has double glazed narrow boat windows (one on each side.)
All has appliances run off the underslung LPG tank which can be easily filled at an LPG pump, these are becoming much more common and weโve never had an issue finding one. We have taken it to be checked out by a van conversion gas specialist and they have checked all the connections and they are all safe; we also have a gas detector and a carbon monoxide detector. The gas appliances are as follows
โข Oven and Grill
โข Two burner hob
โข Instant Hot water heater
โข Gas, blow air heater
We also chose to use an only tin bath as the shower โtrayโ which is handy for using less water when washing or washing clothes or even washing a dog.
There is a 150L water tank which easily lasts 4-7 days depending on how often you need to shower. The system has shurflo in line pump and water pressure is fantastic.
The electrics are the most important part of the van as we wanted to be off grid and as self sufficient as possible. The electrical set up is listed below
โข 200Ah Victron Lithium Ion battery
โข Victron Smart BMS 12V 100a (keeps the battery heathy and charges off the starter battery when running)
โข Victron Easyplus Compact (Inverter/Charger and AC power distribution all in one)
โข Victron SmartSolar MPPT 100/50 (Solar charge controller)
โข 6 x 100W Solar panels wires in pairs to give 300W of solar at a higher voltage ( more efficient charging)
โข Victron Battery Protect (Cuts off the DC power if the battery runs low on charge.
โข Victron BMV Battery Monitor (so you obsessively keep an eye on your battery levels and health)
With Victron their devices all run off Bluetooth so you can download an app to your phone and connect to each device and see how itโs performing and even turn them on and off from your phone. Itโs easy to use and safe keeping your mind at ease.
We went with all Victron as they are the leading company across Europe and America for DC electrical systems. If you have a look on their website you can see all their devices and how they work, also how much they cost.
There is lightning throughout the van, we went a bit overkill and probably put in too many lights but with our electrical setup you could leave them on all day and you would never drain the battery. Most low voltage downlights with a few LED strips when you need something extra.
The security for the van is great; we have a household lock on the main door which we can also lock the shutter at the back with a padlock. The door through to the cab also requires a lock so we always feel super safe. Also due to the windows being higher up than most vans people canโt peer in as they walk by.
We have tried to cover as much as possible but if you have any more questions we are super happy to help!
1 full double memory foam mattress however there is enough space in the lounge area for 2 adult guests.
