By the way I dont think your Duralast agm battery is a deep cycle battery. You need deep cycle batteries for prolonged use activities like running locksmith machines and power tools, car batteries. Car batteries are designed to gove lots of power in a short period of time like when a vehicke engine is turned on. These car batteries fail quickly when discharged past 90% capacity. Get one, you'll see a difference.

Do you ever feel cramped when working in this van? Do you wish you had gotten a larger vehicle?
@LocksmithRenoSparks Жыл бұрын
On Eeprom jobs when I'm dealing with several computers... It could be cramped. Not sure if I mentioned in video or comments. I'm 6'2" tall and would love a bigger van. Issue is I don't have anywhere to park a van away from public view. Purpose of this van is to hide inside my garage when not in used. Garage is alarmed with sensors and I feel comfortable going on family trips and leaving my equipment behind. Go on a trip and leave your van on the street with several thousands in tools/stock. I bet you won't enjoy your trip. Lol

Hey man, my name is Matthew Johnson I own GoKey Locksmiths in Long Beach, California and Riverton Utah. I just barely bought a 2000 Astrovan and looking one for a while and then I came across your video video. Funny because I also had a NV200 that he just got rid of same problem couldn’t fit in my garage anyways dude, I was wondering if you had all the specs to how you set this thing up it was a dope video.

I did see a locksmith sleep in his van but didn't see how it was set up. I do like your idea. I'm right now into stuff that folds up like the Olympia folding tool cart, got the 300 and 150 pound versions that has 3 shelves, a Werner 375 lb. folding and extendable ladder, a Dewalt folding table, a Husky rolling tool bag, Husky Connect Tool Storage, Home Depot bucket with a Husky Bucket Bucket Jockey, and CLC Bucket Seats. I'm all about trying to save space.
