Hi guys we're still here and there will be more videos soon! ❤ Solicitors are slow and relocating across the world is even slower! 🏡🌎 🚐

Hi Whats happened to the uploads?

I have loved watching all your videos and look forward to the next ones.

5:22 do not use solid conductors in vehicles!

Fantastic video. Great filming. Keep up the great work.

Sponsored ? That is a shed load of cash there. Victron is good, but I'm not paying their prices, there are good alternatives that don't cost so much.

Hi Jodie and Joe. I just love what you have done with your van and I cant wait to start my own. I have loved watching all your videos so far and look forward to keep watching. I think you two are a great couple and hope you have great fu with your van. Gary

I love the fact you have used many cells to create a big battery. Did you find it cost affective and easy to do??

Great work guys they look fantastic

Cabn u tell me when u will be back thanks

Hey dude,great channel. Some great tips... I've just started my conversation..scratching my head to what electrics etc I need any info would be massively appreciated

Hello guys can I ask the dodo mat thermal insulation how do you rate it. Thank you.

Yes i know vans are as sexy as fridges on wheels but there is just something special about them. I own a new mid size van and a big van the size of yours. The ability to change the interior to fit whatever you do and change the inside again if you need to is awesome. I call my one my house that i can take on adventures.

If you’ve never driven a big van before then you don’t have D1 on your licence. You’re driving it illegally you plonker. Also you therefore have no insurance

You 2 are jokers. Great viewing. 😂

Great tutorial and instructions. I'm planning to do the same insulation with PIR boards! :) I have a question. How did you guys fit panels in the upper section of the wall since there are also some van ribs? Thanks in advance :)

Looks like the van was holding up well - Would you get the same van again I wonder?

Hi guys. Loving your adventures & honesty about van life, any chance of details of the chemical disposal points you use ? Just to make touring easier. Cheers.

Hey guys! first of all Id like to say I love your videos, Im starting my own van build an was curious why you chose the mulitplus 2 inverter over the quattro inverter? I'm just stumped on which one to get

Nice video 😊

Well it's july and quite nearly August so are we getting anymore or are u done loved your videos

It was going well, then at 2:31 instant like 😂

Great videos! I would like to know if you would like to share how you record, edit and upload your videos?

You don't need a roller. Just wipe it with a cloth

It's probably rude of me to ask, but what happened to the gorgeous gal's arms and knee? Burns or skin cancer or? Either way, damn she's a hottie! 😍😂

Brilliant videos, so happy to have found this channel! 😀

I was always wondering whether or not the Ducato factory alternator can handle TWO 360W DC/DC chargers. Is the alternator holding up without any issues? THX & keep up the good work - love your videos!

That was good presure in the tap/shower

Hi guys doing the same build as yours almost. How did you fix the solar panels to the unistrut?

Jodie and Joe, where did you go? how's it going with you guys?

10:58 Image my surprise when I parked my van one day and the van next to me had parked on top of a piece of wood which was purposefully made to look like a human lower leg, including a tennis shoe and sock... very weird but also very funny and in an urban setting totally stealth...

Those pictures out of the back of the van is not about the view but more about the scantily clad miss on her stomach in the foreground...or at least so I was told... I would not know anything about that because my miss is not ...well you catch my drift...

Wifi can be enhanced relatively easy using a directional wifi antenna connected to a usb wifi card. It is possible to get reasonable wifi connections at restaurants/gas stations and hotels where normally no would be visible even... A directional antenna can be made with easy to find parts (like a toilet brush holder of all things) an a matter of an hour or so...look up cantenna... you will love it...

A central throne is very common... In fact my van can be considered a bed box with an en suite on wheels... with the emphasis on the en suite part...

Cooking in a van should not be any more difficult compared to cooking in a house. Obviously you have the amount of food available in cold or regular storage but you can plan a somewhat healthy diet for sure. If you like to try some of my time tested ways of cooking, look into: the omnia stove oven (or a more affordable Italian (Versili) or spanish (ibili) version), a diy heat retention cooker (or hay box) called the Wonderoven (which can be sewn together - by hand if in a pinch - using an old cotton bed sheet or duvet cover, an extremely handy way to cook while driving even and without using any energy not to mention safe and no need to attend as the cooking is going on. Very nice for those dishes which need a long time stewing, you know the Irish Stew, Boeuf Bourguignon and those hearty winter soups like pasta fagioli), a pressure cooker (obviously a great way to cook fast and very energy efficient), steaming food (also very easy and über healthy, though moisture buildup in the van is a consideration), if you want to go a little bit extra out of the box you could experiment with a solar oven (cardboard, some aluminium tape and two glass washing machine doors (huh? yes those glass things are very useful) does the trick (the interweb has the free plans, if not shoot me aline, I can send you one over) There is no excuse to eat poorly in the van... Ask Ainsley, Ramsey, Bourdain or if you must Oliver...

Hot water in a van is relatively easy. An Italian company called Quick makes stainless steel boilers from 15L upto 60L I believe which are heated using heat from the engine cooling system and an electric heating element (which is rather large - 800W - but can be toned down using a power dimmer) I have this voltage sensitive relay installed which switches the heater element on if the battery is nearly fully charged so any excess solar power is diverted into the boiler. Like you I have this sprayer setup in the galley but I also have this anti leak tray which has been converted into a shower pan which I place on top of a floor drain so I can use the shower pan as needed. The pan has a shower curtain and a standard curtain rail (with 4 ready made bend pieces in it to form a rounded square) which I hang from the ceiling. My van is tall but not tall enough to use an overhead shower head so I have this stool with water proof upholstery so I can sit down and do a Furo style shower (using a bucket warm water and a small plastic cup) and I also am able to use the sprayer from the galley if need be.... I do not have a build in waste water tank but I do have a 25L tank on a trolley which I place underneath the van to catch any waste water from both the galley sink and the floor drain which the waste water from the shower pan flows into...

off topic joe mate but at 5:41 where are the jean style shorts from?

jodies determination and vibes in this video is iconic. shes a gem, great vid

What TV mount is that?

I am a regular watcher of your always excellent videos and only just picked up you read my review of Stapleford ! lol. Yup, those pesky concrete lumps are not very kind to the van :). And she is actually a he :) :) :)

Is it just me BUT Joe's cutting upwards towards his femoral artery seems seriously dangerous. Bleed out time from severing that is just a few minutes. And even if Jodie is a qualified nurse/doctor saving someone cut like is tough wihout the gear to hand. The first rule of knife safety is always to cut away from your body or from another person. Always. And this isn't an urban myth. Can't believe I would be the first to say this on this thread but am so horrified. I watch your videos from the warmth between you two. As has been said by many, watching amateurs van build as teaching tools is only going to lead to problems.

Yeah I watched a Greg Virgo video.where he states that Solar power is only about 15% efficient and leisure batteries are only 50% efficient.👍

Hi Jodie and Joe,loving your videos and jolly well done on all the work you’ve done on the van conversion.👍

You two by far win the most adorable van life couple ever!🤣🤣🤣

You should not be using Twin & Earth for anything at all in a vehicle, or any single core cable where there is movement or vibration.

You made a battery without a BMS and using grade B Docan cells, are you asking to be cooked alive? STOP what you are doing right now and go watch will prowse or some other DIY battery with BMS tutorial.

Absolutely amazed the van has only cost you £125 in repairs. The Boxer, Relay, Ducato are well known in the van trade to be made of cheese mechanically and regularly throw up eyewatering bills. You've been extremely lucky thus far.

What in gods name did they use the van for previously!! HA

How many sheets did you use? I have the l4 relay

Lol worrying if a vegan is offended if you are cooking sausages is really one step to far of being considerate. But still friendly. 😊
