looks great!! with the rattan, soak it in water first, then staple it on. when in dries it will shrink creating a nice tight install. this stops the ripples and makes it more even!!
Hi, Tori. Hope all is well. You are very resourceful, charismatic, and a great storyteller. Thank you for sharing your time, thoughts, opinions, and experiences. Stay safe, stay healthy, and stay happy! Everything else is manageable! Pops
Tory, You Did A very very very Great Job By Building Your Power Station From Scratch To The Point That You Should Make A Website Business And Make Power Stations For Real, because If You Do That, Then You Make Can Make A Lot Of Money For Real.
I enjoyed this video. When you buy a prebuilt power station you are limited to what they give you and even if it has certain perks like a friend of mine showed me where he could charge his in an hour when plugged into a wall, the chances you will have that ability out in the world are slim. Power stations like Jackery or Patriot are sold mostly with marketing tricks to get you to buy them at a higher price than they are worth. Like Patriot offers a free solar panel. What they don't tell you is that measly 100w solar panel will not charge your power station in a day. If you have a 100Ah battery or bigger 100w panel will take from dead a minimum of 4 days to charge your batteries to full power not to mention you can't use them while charging. That is if you only have 100ah which equals 1280 watts. Here in Phoenix during the summer it is possible to charge fully with 4 100w panels in one day but during the winter 400w isn't enough since your peak sunlight is drastically shortened. Depending on what you have to run the rule is try to have enough battery power to run for up to 4 days with no charging in case of cloudy days. Longer if you live in areas with longer cloudy conditions. The Minimum I would have for even a van build is what I have now at 1020w with my 4 panels. The reason is with that you can charge 200Ah in a day during the winter and on cloudy days still pull around 10 - 20 amps which is enough to run a TV and a couple of other things that take little power. 400w panel during clouds pulls about 4 - 6 amps. This way if you have 4 100Ah batteries you don't have to worry about running out of power. On a van 2 of my panels would take up the whole roof but I can put my other 2 on sliders that extend out from under the others. That's assuming you have a big van and not a normal size van. Building your own lets you customize it for your needs. Personally because of my situation I have only got my components with wires hanging everywhere still waiting to build my box. The one thing I noticed about your build was the battery you chose. I didn't see that it had cold weather protection. I chose my batteries because they had self heating for winter because of my situation. Your biggest enemies for batteries of any kind are winter cold and summer heat especially the sun. If you use your current build for your van you will have issues during times that you are not running counter measures to combat heat or cold. For just camping over a weekend those fans will help but living in a van or bigger you will need a better system to protect your components. Those two fans will help circulate what ever but alone they are only pushing the same are through the box. During the summer building a water cooling system into your box can help for when you don't have cooling for you. You can get the biggest computer radiator possible and create a coil network that runs through the box with a small water pump and a decent sized reservoir to allow the water time to cool as much as possible. The trick is to put the radiator with the fans somewhere the air is coolest which in most cases will be underneath the van. Make sure the pump is just strong enough to move the water so you have an even flow but are not moving it faster than the water can cool. Keep the water reservoir inside the box because sitting in the ambient heat of the van will also heat your water. Make sure the water coming out of the reservoir goes through the coil to the radiator and then back in the tank from the top. During say the 117 degree heat you encountered in Vegas the suns heat has to pass all the way through your van before getting underneath so between the shade of your van and the air flow it is likely 20 degrees cooler under your van than inside. This will allow you to use that 20 degree difference to help keep your batteries from over heating. Then during the winter if you bought the cold weather batteries with self heating just drain the water until next summer. I know it doesn't sound like much cooling but when you are in a situation where you don't have this can make all the difference in the world to keep your batteries from swelling or worse.
These diy power station boxes are a great idea. I'm considering one for my minivan conversion with some sort of detachable way to branch out from it to fused distribution boxes. Kudos Tory, great job!
Talking to your self is a sign of high level of self-awareness relative to most human beings :) Don't be shy to admit that you talk to yourself, most humans cannot and you should treat it as if you are more conscious or a gift :)
This is a really cool idea and great way to diy it! For terminal connectors, all your stuff is low current and fused so probably won't have issues. But in general, the connector is rated for certain current based on its surface area/thickness. Drilling it out loses surface area and not good for higher current loads. A bent spade connector can push out when trying to tighten around a battery terminal. So that's why people advise against it. And with multiple connectors on 1 (battery) terminal, have to make sure they are all flat and making good contact. Sometimes 1 can be out of alignment and reduce contact for others. That's why terminal blocks get used for higher current loads. So only 1 thing gets connected to bat terminal with good connection. If you feel the terminal getting super hot during heavy usage you'll know there's an issue.
Greetings from Turkey. I enjoy watching your videos. I will build a caravan too. Before doing it, your videos were a very good tutorial for me. (You are also very beautiful and energetic ♥️♥️)❤❤😇😇
I have a similar setup running my living room in my house, because of lots of power outages. It's not in a box though. I use a 1k pure sign wave inverter an 2 battery's. FYI, disconnecting the negative first an connecting the positive first, that's for negative ground cars common in the US, so you don't short your wrench on the grounded metal car while putting on the positive cable. In a positive ground car (older British cars) it's reversed. In a wooden box, it doesn't matter as it's not conductive or grounded.
I really like lighter wood colours better. It's like boats, the more dark wood there is, the maller the living space looks. I much prefer seeing lighter colours like Beechwood in living spaces, it makes them brighter and more friendly. I'm very impressed with your skills, you look very professional. 😊
Nicely done. In the future, maybe consider giving you mom an upgrade to a bigger inverter, and then adding a fan to the case to vent the additional heat?
Hey Tory, really important to secure the battery inside the box so that it can't slide around and damage the wiring on the back of your panel, or anyone in the vehicle in the case of an accident, as you demonstrated there's a lot of mass in that battery! The limiting factor around eyelet size on wire connectors should be due to the relationship between the size of wire and the amount of power the component's are designed to accept, therefore making "BIG" changes to the size of connector is not advisable, without ensuring the downstream components are rated for the power, unfortunately cheaper components (like smaller ring terminals) is one way manufacturers cut costs. Otherwise, nice work!
We have a saying "As the manufactorer described", becaurse altering components will make you the responsible one, if there happens something with it. Manufactorers test what there products can do and handle, if you mess with them, it is on you to document that they still live up to those claims. You have to consider, if there is some couting so it need zinkspray, do you weaken the materials integrety by cutting and bending it ( you most likely do ). These are consernes we have to consider, when we do stuff, and almost every time, the correct answer is, just get the right component instead. My former teacher told he once had two guys making typehouses, and one of the houses was testet, and the government guy found a mistake. He then asked if the rest of the houses was made the same way, and it ended up those two guys using 600 hours fixing that little mistake, on all of those identical houses on his dime. Scale is ofcourse a thing here, but the principal still work. Hope I made sence, English is not my first language.
Tory, great job on the power box. One thing I would recommend is to change the little fuse holder in the hot wire on your 12v power plug. I've had 2 of the those that have broke at the end of the fuse holder and wire input. Just a suggestion.
Brilliant as always You definitely did your research. can I ask why only 300 watts you could have double or Triple for just a few more dollars? Have a Favorite Weekend 💚🤟
Hi Rory it's Tony first I would like to commend you for doing that for your mom that's awesome and may I also add maybe you should cut out the side so that you can plug directly into the inverter but I have followed you from the beginning I have left just a few comments I'm not wanted to do that often I lived in a van for 3 years then I got a pickup and put a camper on the back and live in that for a while presently I live in a 30-foot trailer off grid I think you are spectacular lady I think you are very intriguing by taking on all your projects yourself and I commend you for that the best part is if something happens while you're on the road you know how to fix it may I also add that if you get mylar for your windows like from Auto parts you can see out but they can't see in and also don't forget to put a compressor so that you can pump up your tires I think that's enough for now let's be BFFs and I mean that sincerely but in the meantime be safe take care of yourself and may God bless you Appalachian dreams see you in the next video
That turned out super nice and that is a good price point what and do you have a link to the wood you are using on that project Thank you love the channel do you have merch yet or stickers
looking great i and here is a box premade that could also work with mini size batteries with 100ah!XL Brown Wooden Box Storage with Hinged Lid | 15.8 x 11.8 x 5.5 inches (+-0.5) | with Handles |" This could also work
Only concern I had was by putting the extra wood and foam to take up the space inside the box you are actually insulating the battery. You could have put some metal flanges on the floor of the box which would position the battery with an inch or two of space on all sides for better cooling.
hi, really nice vid. whats the name of that material with the holes you got? i looked for that info in the list you provided but i couldn't find it. thanks.
Don't cut the terminals. It reduces the overall strength of the terminal and also reduces the surface area which effects the amount of power it can handle. Crimping on a larger ring is easy enough and you can pick up bigger rings through auto parts stores and other local as well as online. It's not likely to cause fires, it just creates another point of failure and could result in reduced power available (due to power drop) and poor connection.
Don’t sell yourself short on the box. Solid build. Set of corner clamps / right angle clamps / square clamps (or whatever else they are called) might help you out tho
Do not drill out ring terminals, less metal could give junction heating, same with bending giving metal fatigue leading to cracks or tears at any point, replace with crimped or soldered terminals of the correct size.
They are usually made in plastic boxes, I put a flame retardant paint mixture on the wood hoping to make that an improvement. There isn’t much to go wrong in this set up to worry about.
I have 2 questions: 1. can this battery also be charged with solar panels? 2. can you charge the battery while you are using it? If these questions have already been answered in the video, I'm sorry. English is not my native language and sometimes I find it a bit difficult to follow.
anytime your amazon package is late, complain to chat and get them to refund your monthly fee or have some credit put towards your monthly fee. i chat with them once a month if i ever have any late packages that month. i always get some type of credit back.
Please don't get me wrong, you did good Tory! It's just an american thing to put high power electronics into "wooden" boxes, and I wanted to point out how dangerous that looks for non american people like me. My first idea would be to use a fire retardent varnish on the "wood" and to opt for very good ventilation. This together with using real hardwood would make me sleep much better ;) Oh and please put a smoke detector right in the box, they only cost pennys at this point but could safe your life one day. Love you Tory!

Great video! You can make these for a living! You gave me some ideas as well! Heeeelo side-gig! 😬
Love it!
kick a&&...im building my own soon amazon should be delving soon!
Brilliant as always You definitely did your research. can I ask why only 300 watts you could have double or Triple for just a few more dollars? Have a Favorite Weekend 💚🤟
Very nice build
Thanks!! 🙏 😊
Nice projects. Definitely a good idea to start off making easy to connect portable systems before trying to DIY a large system.
Talking to the power station 😂🤣👍
that's amazing
awesome video 😊
Oh, and your nails are superb!
Nice💯👍
Great job.
I bought the ECOFLOW DELTA 2, on sale right now.
Very good video! I like the build!

hell ya buddy good job looks great

That is too funny, Amazon needs to give us a discount for being so slow. 😂😂
Hey Tory about the paint color if you don't like it you can just change it
Velcro tape the components, including the battery. Will stop movement in emergency stops.
I love you Tory 🥰
hi, really nice vid. whats the name of that material with the holes you got? i looked for that info in the list you provided but i couldn't find it. thanks.
@@chevyvantravel9735 It’s called Rattan! :)

ADHD=vanbuild, oh wait, build a Jackery! 😂 I feel it!!!
The reason for the power box or additional battery is so that one does not run their car’s 12v dead and get stuck right? 😉 nice build
Tory, you are awesome. However, I'd bump up the inverter to at least 1000 watt.
Don’t sell yourself short on the box. Solid build. Set of corner clamps / right angle clamps / square clamps (or whatever else they are called) might help you out tho
also check out mini size batteries with 100ah capacity
Do not drill out ring terminals, less metal could give junction heating, same with bending giving metal fatigue leading to cracks or tears at any point, replace with crimped or soldered terminals of the correct size.
I think you can "refurbish" your battery with the smart battery charger. Doesn't your battery box need some heavy duty handles to belp you carry it?
Repair or refurbished function for your battery charger are for sealed lead acid batteries which may power your van under the hood.
Man your dad is probably very proud of you.
Madonna does not have the knowledge that you are learning. Sending my love.🌹
I’m curious to see the three month or six month review of your mom using it for a while……
like a real world test.
I’m curious to see how it does
when i look at your amazon link it shows the 12v TM and 12v BV.
whats the difference?
This is gonna be the Taj Mahal of vans based on how much time is being put into it
lol @ Harbor Fright
I wish more beautiful hair flipping women who speak intelligent showing interesting things about living van life would buy vans to live in
Wood...highly flammable, btw.
They are usually made in plastic boxes, I put a flame retardant paint mixture on the wood hoping to make that an improvement. There isn’t much to go wrong in this set up to worry about.
I have 2 questions:
1. can this battery also be charged with solar panels?
2. can you charge the battery while you are using it?
If these questions have already been answered in the video, I'm sorry. English is not my native language and sometimes I find it a bit difficult to follow.
Living in a van fashion vanshion
Emergency Kill Switch ?
Me looking at this, realizing I paid way too much for my power station that is half dead...and it's an eco flow, xD
anytime your amazon package is late, complain to chat and get them to refund your monthly fee or have some credit put towards your monthly fee. i chat with them once a month if i ever have any late packages that month. i always get some type of credit back.
Did you say "Harbor Fright" ? ? :)
You are only the second person ive ever heard call it harbor frite🤔🤷♂️🤦♂️
Please don't get me wrong, you did good Tory! It's just an american thing to put high power electronics into "wooden" boxes, and I wanted to point out how dangerous that looks for non american people like me. My first idea would be to use a fire retardent varnish on the "wood" and to opt for very good ventilation. This together with using real hardwood would make me sleep much better ;) Oh and please put a smoke detector right in the box, they only cost pennys at this point but could safe your life one day.
Love you Tory!

Just be careful with Amazon electronic components. Especially fuses!
An electrical fire in the same van as your sleeping would be bad bad bad!
🚐👸👏👏👏👏👏😍👌❤❤❤❤
Not that colour, you would hate it, wrong colour for your decorations
Here we are once again. Your Ecoflow 100ah 12V is Amazoned at $319. I purchased an equal spec LiPO for $169 and most run $200. Your sponsor is a little pricey; must be the cost of a spokesmodel. And why would a quality refrigerator need an insulation bag, increasing its overall cost; perhaps a better insulated refrigerator is merited. Again, a nice upscale especially when you consider that you cannot see your pink refrigerator with it on. I did t even look at you electronics, but I am scared to death especially when you need to be very cautious which fuse size, cable gauge and many other factors with a 12V which is more unforgiving with current than a 24V system. Fortunately you are not using electronics with high draws. Glad to see your Mom’s car isn’t an EV.
Hey man I like watching these how-to vids.
Just turned 70 an still tinkering. Wish I could make Kool vids...
Yea, that battery is way over priced. I have two 100 amp hour batteries like that one, also from Amazon, for $160 each.
