    Parking heaters at altitude

    Yes you can have multiple timers on your US market Webasto Airtop 2000 st! Here's how: WebastoTech USA (and Canada) is clueless about any of this, which is silly, because its really quite simple.

    Fuel tank in place of my spare tire???

    Like a round Rotapax would be perfect. I have found a few options which are way too expensive. I don't need anything fancy, just a doughnut shaped tank I can lower and use to fill my vehicles tank in an emergency. 5-10 gallons would probably be okay. My van is a ford transit. I have a set...

    This might not be the best place to post this question (if not then please kindly direct me to where would be) Has anyone done a dual vent system for the refrigerator install?

    A/C and other ways of cooling (cooling blanket?)

    I am attempting to build a solar system and budget for some form of cooling. I have a Ford Transit high roof that I am just starting to build. Of course, extensive insulation will be part of the plan, but I am trying to explore my cooling options. I have looked at some commercial semi/truck...

    I am ordering a Ford Transit High Roof and will be doing a custom conversion. Here are what I evaluate to be my electrical needs. This is the extreme high end of what I estimate my usage to be! For instance, this is running my Webasto heater full blast for 24/7. I plan on insulating very...

    making a FG home; many questions!

    I saw an add for the Phoenix Camper and became completely enamored with the idea of an expedition camper. A little about me: I am 30 years old and still figuring out what I want to do with my professional career. I have a trust so I can afford an expedition camper but I don't have so much in my...
