    Wild Wanderland RUclips... / wildwanderland
    *My name is Brian. I started living full time in a self built camper van in 2014 in my hometown of San Diego, CA. I hit the road full-time in 2015 to pursue seasonal work and travel around the U.S. I find free camping on public land and enjoy photography, hiking, biking, and kayaking in nature. Join me on my adventures.
    Thanks for watching!

    So happy to hear she used wool insulation. As a wool grower I wish more people knew about this sustainable healthy product. Wool is amazing and it’s uses go back for centuries. Thank you for sharing! Love your videos, come visit next time you’re in NH 😊

    That's actually one of the coolest builds I've ever seen, just for the sheer amount of stuff in there. I've never seen a van with wool insulation, so that's intriguing. And I like the multipurpose coffee table.

      She is just under 5’7” and as you can see in the video she can stand up fine. I am 5’11” and with the ceiling insulation and paneling my head does hit the ceiling and I need to tilt my head when standing.

All of these are identical , made from same manufacture as stated on " DIY Solar with Will Prouse " RUclips channel . Only down fall is no low temp disconnect . Dont charge if battery gets down to freezing. P.S. i Paid two weeks ago for same batteries off Amazon 450.00 .Price keeps dropping. Look into 200 amp that they sell, you get a little discount
