      Yeah, not the first recent video that’s basically one big commercial either. All power to them if it works to maximise their revenue but I do sometimes find it super annoying tbh. Often hard to watch as well. But again, gotta make money, so I can’t blame them.

    I love your vision for the outside. It currently looks perfectly presentable. I would concentrate your time and resources on making the inside and outside(awnings etc) more functional. As far as the flooring, I’m with you that carpeting is more comfortable but less cleanly. I would go with some sort of laminate and throw rugs that can be shaken outside.

    We use my dads hymer motor home which is a 90’s retro beauty! Think you should embrace the the retro interior it looks great!! And most probably way better quality than newer stuff. Maybe change the old 3 way fridge for a compressor one or just run it on gas!

    I have a caravan and would agree that I feel like it’s the best of all worlds. You have your home behind you and can still drop it off and drive around to nearby places with an easy to park vehicle. It’s tricky to park but it just takes practice. The trick to a smaller caravan is to keep things simple and avoid clutter whenever possible. Have an awesome time with it and I look forward to the build videos. Not sure if you have thought about it but as a Tesla owner as well the 12v plug in the Tesla has quite a high output and can be used with a good converter to power your basic caravan electrical! You are literally driving a MASSIVE battery bank so utilize it to the fullest.

    I love the proposed colour so the two vehicles match. Ditch the carpet and put in the lino so you can sweep and wash easily, but if you want the warmth of carpet in the winter, lay down a bath mat. It’s washable and comes in any colour you can think of. Happy caravanning! 🚘

    I'm so excited that you’ve got a caravan! I have one too, along with an EV, and I had the exact same reasoning for getting it. We’ve got an EcoFlow Pro, and I’m planning to permanently install it in the caravan. Glad to hear you're working on this project!

  • @wrightfamily4373
    @wrightfamily4373 3 месяца назад

    Regards to the fridge in 12 V. Because they’ve got such a high draw, the older fridge is like what have in your caravan.
    Will Only allow to use the 12 V whilst the vehicle is charging it also the 12 V on older fridges doesn’t tend to get a fridge cold but just helps maintain it. It’s more used for whilst in transit not to run the fridge hence while you’re plugged in on the move.

    Our camper/caravan as you call it has NO carpet! We don’t need carpet in ours because we usually go to a lake and carpet is too hard to keep clean. We have linoleum, which is so easy to keep clean.😊❤

    Eriba’s lightweight pop top is a great idea. As it’s more compact that many touring vans, I wouldn’t waste valuable real estate on a shower & toilet. Unless you’re wild camping, there will always be facilities you can use.

    Even with the smallest model x batterie pack, it would be less than 1.7% not considering charge losses. Which would be around 15% at such low speed. For the biggest battery it is not even charging 1%. However always nice to have a backup. And run an extra 2 miles maybe

    We love our electric campervan but an EV + caravan combo makes a lot of sense for the type of travel you're describing. If you want to wild camp loads like we do, an electric campervan's great, but if you want to stay at campgrounds and use them as a base for a few nights or more to explore the area, a caravan's much better suited to that.
    We can also use our house battery to charge the traction battery of our electric campervan if we're ever really in a pickle. We haven't needed to yet (though we have gotten close a few times 😅), but it's great to have the option to get us to a charging station or someplace with electricity

    For your caravan, you can put 800watts on it. 400 on the top and 2, 200 on each side that folds. Have you heard of a solar panel awning. Slides out from under the one on the roof.

    And this is why your have no money, I’m sorry guys but you can’t have it all. I know it’s hard and it’s great you both have ambition and I admire that. But the reality is this. You have son now and travelling is still gonna be fun, but financially if you want to get your family home Bulit try stay in Costa Rica until it’s Built and get your son settled. You can do other content in Costa Rica maybe show us more about the local people etc. I wish you guys the best. But you can’t have it all you need to be more financially responsible now. Good luck.

    Caravan is a good shout. Never understood motorhomes, you have to pack up every day just to drive somewhere. Why not go to a campsite, unload everything, then spend a week there, and have a nimble car ready to go at all times for that week.
