You're wondering why these van builds cost so much, aren't you? Well here we are. This is where the costs really start to add up.
(THIS PAGE IS A WORK IN PROGRESS.) I referenced the Far Out Ride tutorial as a starting point for my Electrical System.
Here is an incomplete list of the components:
Solar & electrical system parts & tools:
Newpowa 200 watt solar panels - $400 for two panels (400 watt total)
Battle Born deep cycle 100ah lithium batteries - $2,940 for 3
AIMS 3000watt pure sine inverter - v.2 - $528
Tab pulls - $35 for 7
Electrical system installation - $2,500
Stuff I bought that ended up getting scrapped from my build:
Samlex 2000watt pure sine inverter - v.1 - $691
Samlex remote control - $36 (ended up not using)
Cost = $8,393 and counting

Once the electrical system was functional, powered by the wonderful sun, it was time to add some Lighting!
