If you're building out a camper van or overland rig, a reliable and efficient electrical system is key. The EcoFlow Power Kit is one of the best all-in-one solutions on the market—and setting it up inside a dedicated cabinet makes your system safer, cleaner, and easier to maintain.
At Skyliner Gear, we help vanlifers, DIYers, and adventure travelers integrate advanced power systems like the EcoFlow Power Kit into compact spaces. Here’s how to design and complete an EcoFlow Power Kit installation inside a cabinet in your van.
Building a cabinet to house your EcoFlow system keeps your components:
Protected from bumps, dust, and moisture
Secure while driving
Organized with clean cable routing
Easy to access for upgrades or maintenance
Whether you're going stealth, off-grid, or full-time, a proper EcoFlow Power Kit setup in a cabinet will streamline your van’s electrical system.
Before you start your EcoFlow Power Kit installation, make sure you have:
EcoFlow Power Hub
EcoFlow LFP Batteries (2kWh, 5kWh, or 15kWh)
Distribution Panel
Smart AC/DC Cabling
Ventilated Cabinet or Custom Enclosure
Tools: drill, screws, mounting brackets, zip ties
Optional: Solar panels, 12V/24V DC appliances, inverter
Step 1: Design Your Cabinet Layout
Choose a location close to where you'll route solar or shore power input.
Ensure there's room for ventilation (EcoFlow components can get warm).
Sketch out space for the Power Hub, battery bank, and cabling.
Step 2: Build or Install the Cabinet
Use durable plywood or aluminum-framed panels.
Add vents or fan openings to prevent overheating.
Include access doors or a removable panel for servicing.
Step 3: Mount the EcoFlow Components
Secure the Power Hub vertically or horizontally based on EcoFlow’s mounting recommendations.
Stack the LFP batteries using the included brackets or secure straps.
Mount the Distribution Panel where AC/DC circuits will be easily reachable.
Step 4: Make All Electrical Connections
Connect Power Hub to the LFP batteries using Smart Battery Cables.
Route solar panel wires (if used) to the solar input.
Connect AC and DC outputs to the distribution panel or directly to your appliances.
Step 5: Power On and Configure
Power up the system via the EcoFlow app.
Set preferences like AC priority, battery usage limits, and monitor system performance in real time.
Use heat-resistant cable sleeves for a cleaner and safer install.
Label every connection—future-you will thank you.
Use a voltmeter to double-check each connection before turning on power.
Keep a fire extinguisher nearby during installation (better safe than sorry).
