  • In this video I talk about what I’m currently using in my van for my electrical system. Since I’m far from an electrician, I ended up choosing the power box method of powering my van rather than wiring it all myself and using a fuse box and inverter. Eventually I may end up switching over, but this is working well for now. My next upgrade to the electrical system will be purchasing solar panels to charge the power box. I also compare the first power box that I used which was the 4Patriots brand, and I explain why I ended up returning it. I talk about the new power box that I have now which is Bluetti, and I honestly have zero complaints.

    I have the Bluetti Ac200MAX and I use it for power outages or running AC too cool down my living room for my frenchies.

    Bluetti isn’t bad at all. I have an EcoFlow Delta Pro, Anker F1500 and a 521 for backup power. The “powered box”/solar generators are a great all in one option. 4Patriots products are dumpster juice.

    I use a Bluetti AC200Max (similar but older model) in my 27' boat, and I have the wall charger and a big folding solar panel, but I can 100% recommend that you look into a DC-DC charger for your van.... It's essentially a "fast charger" for your Bluetti that runs off the alternator while you're driving around (up to five times faster than the 12v cigarette lighter cable they give you). I got a Pecron 500w one from this video ruclips.net/video/NqnYaqMwktE/видео.html but there are other brands.
    No more hauling it in and out of the boat for charging is AWESOME!

      I have heard of this but didn’t know exactly how it worked. Thanks! 👍🏻

    Get panels. Cigarette charging would take you 20 hours from 0 to full. Also pecron would give you more power for cheaper. You can use more solar with pecron

    If you ever decide to install a hard electrical system in your van, let me recommend that you take a look at this video from Explorist Life. . . ruclips.net/video/E5q7_4FH4LQ/видео.html. The guy knows his stuff and can make it real simple to understand what is going on. Another guy you might look into for electrical help is Will Prouse . . . www.youtube.com/@WillProwse
