    Expedition Camper Layout Concept

    Hello all, I have been planning a build for a while. As I save up, the cost of the build keeps moving up and getting away from me. Be I hope in the near future I will be able to start. It will be a 14ft floor on a Ram 5500 84CA. I keep changing the layout to try and optimize the use of...

    Ram is going loco(motive)

    Ram has a new Ramcharger coming next year that is a 1500 with a 92kWh battery pack and a V6 powered generator. It is essentially going to be similar to how modern diesel-electric locomotives operate. You can operate it normally as a BEV with pretty good range, but if you need longer range, the...

I was thinking what if we exchanged the stock alternator with a high voltage alternator like 56V 60V or 72V...

    What battery size would you need to go overlanding in an EV.

    I am planning a build of a truck camper with the goal of putting it on an EV truck someday. I was thinking about what battery size I would need to feel comfortable overlanding with EV. I think I would want around 500 miles of range. Without the help of solar, this would allow for a 200 mile...

    Lunos HRV system?

    So I am designing my build for a total composites camper, and because it will be very tight I expect I will need some ventilation air. I am familiar with Heat Recovery Systems, but I came across the Lunos ego and curious if anyone has used one? It is specifically made for small spaces under...

    My poor man's Earth Roamer design.

    I am planning a build of a 14 foot flat bed F550 camper and looking for feedback. MY plan is to live in it full time. I currently live in a travel trailer and tow it with a Ford Transit. I find it such a pain to hook up the trailer and get away for a weekend. Plus, I can't go to the...
