Glad to hear you're doing okay after that, huge wake up call indeed. It's so easy to forget that yeah it can be over in an instant, fortunately for me I live with a constant reminder of that, lucky to be alive from a horrific car accident I was in, lucky to be walking around after a surfing accident exploded my L1 and was within millimeters of spinal cord. I'm 34 years young, healthy, and if I don't make it to 35 I've had a damn good run, no regrets here. I have open cranial surgery scheduled for April 13th with some of the best neurosurgeons in the business, I got this!
Very simple to upgrade to lithium, both the solar charge controller and DC-DC charger are capable of charging lithium, as simple as pushing buttons to change settings, I can't answer your question about AC as I am unfamiliar with that kind of system, I'm sure 300ah of lithium can power an AC for a short amount of time, but keep in mind there is no shore power connection in my system. The van is winter capable, the water tanks and batteries are all inside the van and the Propex heater works fantastic. Transmission is an Automatic 5 speed (5r110), no cruise control, van AC blows ice cold, there's zero issues with the vehicle. Miles are original, just shy of 88k. Never had any leaks anywhere, the van is titled in CA as a class B RV.

Long travel TTB’s, AKA i-beams, mine would fall into the mid travel category.
