Thanks. Can't claim all the work though. My son did about 95%, I just told him what to do :) And I definitely left the decor to team ladies.

Here are a few pics. Still have some trim work and electrical.

Thanks. Yes, the flat bed pictured is a CPT box.

Interesting read for tech-heads.

Quick update on the build. Have had a few delays, but hopefully camper will be complete in a couple weeks. Pictures can be seen on our website; https://www.terralitecampers.com/ Our current build is the one with camo; Interior pics will be coming soon...........

I was hoping to get away from a fuel base heat, but it may be a good back up. While I've been happy with the propex, the propane tank is heavy and takes space. Scout does something similar to what you are describing with diesel heater. Wish I could find one of these:

CPT has a one-year warranty. In general, they warranty the materials, and workmanship of the products that they produce. They cannot offer a mechanical warranty as they cannot control how the unit is being used.

I think the box was originally 6.5', and the flat bed extends to edge of hitch for 7 ft. Door placement and cabover length are definitely considerations. Thats one thing I appreciate working with CPT. Their engineers helped guide me with what I wanted to do. There is internal framing...

I have the Propex heater in my current camper and it works great. With this next build having over 900 ah of lithium, I was looking for alternatives to fuel type heaters that produce dry heat like the diesel, gas, and propane. Not interested in radiant for various reasons. If I do end up with...

Thank you for that! It was getting a bit tiresome of the back and forth of opinions of those I know nothing about. While I too enjoy some discussion, it gets to a certain point where you start to wonder if they are doing more harm than good. Meaning opinions are taken out of context for the...

Perhaps we can get off the panel topic. I was hoping for some component input on this next build. Would like for it to be all electric. 920 ah lithium will be the power and redarc the management. Anybody have thoughts on dry heat such as diesel or propex heater would put out only electric...

I got that one! :)

I was referring to the CPT chart. https://www.cptpanels.com/composite-panels/materials/ Regarding lightest weight eps gets 5 pvc 3, both have equal insulation value, yes pvc is stronger and more durable. Pvc costs more. I'm satisfied with the EPS.

Ruff, Alloy hit the nail on the head regarding overall strength. When building my own panels, I thought XPS was the best option due to the reasons you stated. Stiffness may not be ideal in a habitat on wheels. EPS actually has more bonding surface than XPS. CPT uses a two-part polyurethane...

No worries, I get it now :) Are you posting progress of your build?

I'll try to address all these interesting observations and opinions. Let's start with the picture cross section. First it is incomplete. The panels for camper applications are foam core. The picture shows the first step application bonding the outer extrusion. When cured, the second step...

Well I'm trying to understand the marketing BS comment. If you have two equal applications with same surface area, one is slip in with no pressure and the other is, which is stronger? Also an update on the corners; they are now filled. See attached. Also you mentioned not using Tern...

Nopec, what do you mean you have sadly fallen with Tern windows? :) I'm pretty sure they are rebranded Euro-vision imported from China. Not implying negativity, just saying. :)

I'm always suspect when told someone has done something for XX number of years or they've XX years experience. The question is always have they been doing the same thing (production line) every month for XX years or have they done something (custom) different for every month for XX years. I...

Not sure if primer is being used as you mentioned, but I will be sure to inquire and follow up. They have been in the transportation industry for over 20 years, I would think they know what they are doing. The two-piece aluminum extrusion gives 100% thermal transfer free from the exterior...
