It definitely has that “I built it in my driveway” look to it.

[@TN4theWIN]

“I built it in my driveway for under $2000" look to it😄

[@OverlandTrailer]

Good build! I'm glad you welded that frame up. You'll never regret it. Great little squaredrop. Thanks for sharing.

[@buildersblueprint]

Welding the frame definitely gives me piece of mind. Thanks for watching

That drone shot though. Thing came out amazing man!

[@buildersblueprint]

Thanks bro 🙌

[@mattaneshansley5349]

Amazing build and video quality as always. Your electrical system is off the charts and definitely high quality / high cost. I'd be curious to see a breakdown.

[@Sam-dm4rj]

I identity with not being able to quit building stuff. In the 90's I started re-doing vintage campers, refurbing trailers from parts, then discovered harbor freight. Motorcycle trailers, campers, gypsy wagons..... . Now im working on etrikes and camper!

[@ianrobert6239]

Brilliant craftsmanship and excellent result.👍

[@buildersblueprint]

Thank you send me your address. I’m going to ship you a free hat. [e-mail]

[@hotshottocoolu2794]

Love the way you built the camper but I think on your next bill you should put the entry of the battery box facing inside to prevent theft

[@GardenreetLighting]

I'm seriously impressed! Your creativity and technical skills are off the charts! This isn't just a camper, it's a masterpiece! 🔨

[@buildersblueprint]

Wow, thank you! 😊

[@mr_q_02]

Noticed a really common mistake when venting your battery box at 18:45-ish. You don't want your intake sitting directly across from your outtake at the same height. This causes dead areas in the airflow. Instead, you want one high and one low. You also only need one fan unless you're specifically trying to create positive pressure inside the box.

[@KamilPietrasik-bw9jx]

That's correct it's very unlikely for people to make mistakes like this he did not think much about the placement of his intakes and outtakes

[@buildersblueprint]

One fan pulls air in and the other pushes air out. They work really well the outtake of the inverter is near the outtake fan.

[@mr_q_02]

@@buildersblueprint Yes, I understand. :-) But fans blow in cones. So by having one blowing in at the same height as one blowing out, you've overlapped the cones and made a cylinder of air running from the intake to the outtake. The air blowing in will blow right out and leave eddies of hot air in all of the corners (especially at the bottom since you've put the holes at the top). Whereas if you had one low and one high, there wouldn't be overlap in the cones, meaning they're working together to mix all the air. But really two fans are unnecessary (though you still want the two holes). Since no two fans ever blow at exactly the same speed, you're either creating positive or negative pressure in the box (depending on which one is slower). Positive pressure would be great in a box containing a propane tank, but otherwise it's just kind of inefficient (it's not bad, per se, just a minor waste of pennies and electricity). Overall, you really want your intake to be low (where the coolest air is) and your outtake to be high (where the hottest air is). Any time you build an air system with two holes, you're creating a river of air between them; if they're at the same height, they really only cool objects in line with them. By varying the height, you create a diagonal which is a longer straight line, meaning it can cover more components. :-)

[@jarman365]

Excellent build!, but I would recommend if you are building these for sale to use Butyl tape and any roofing penetrations with self leveling RV cement/ lap sealant.

[@buildersblueprint]

Thanks for the info. The stuff we use is called levelx and have had no issues with it for years. I’ll try butyl tape next time. ✌️

[@bradleymetcalf]

The solar system is very impressive. The solar charger is rated for 60amp, which is appropriate for the battery capacity and inverter, but I think you could run closer to 4 times the amount of solar panels than you were able to install, have you considered making a mounting system to mount more panels?

[@buildersblueprint]

Correct this is because if we want to add more solar in the future, we will not have to change the solar controller

[@lady_kas7825]

[@HomelessAdventuresHD]

@buildersblueprint if u were giving it away and I won of course I'd do that can u make a bike camper like this?

[@aerobiotic]

You might find a maker space in your area so that you can build your shelters for homeless people. All the tools in a maker space would be available for your use. Plus plenty of people around who can help you with ideas and designs.

[@HomelessAdventuresHD]

@@aerobiotic good idea...I'll have to look around

[@gaggix7095]

Looks great but why did you use a 60A 48V MPPT for a single 200W panel? A 12/24V 20A MPPT would have been much cheaper and would have made no difference.

[@Hanziwolf33]

[@brendawarner1342]

should have protected your wiring so it doesn't rub bare on the metal

[@frozendude707]

You did commit a cardinal sin for electricians, you put electrical wires covered inside insulation. For LED indicators, LED position lights and LED break lights it should be fine, the wires from the solar panel however could become a problem, the insulation was lighter in the roof tho; if you start using amperage on the covered wires the heat the wires generate will have nowhere to go and it will accumulate until in worst and rare cases a fire breaks out. There are both plastic and metal tubes/channels for electrical wires that are supposed to be used for this, they leave some space for the wires to release their heat and get rid of it using a natural flow from convection. Really excellent otherwise.

[@buildersblueprint]

Good info I was not aware of this. We try to stay up to date with everything we do especially the electrical system. I’ll definitely look into it. Thanks ✌️

[@MackOtis6480]

build more bike campers and sale them

[@PhonePhone-sf8te]

way way overkill on the batteries, charge controller, inverter. You have 5000 watts of power, 60 amps worth of charge controller, and 3000 watts of inverter,, paired with a 200 watt panel. It would take a minimum of 3 days to charge the batteries. You're 75% under your charge controller limit, and 2500~ watts over your inverter limit. This is like large RV power ratings for a teardrop. The fridge is going to use 35-40 watts in small bursts over the span of an hour. The tv is like 50 watts an hour max. The electrical system was more $$$ than the rest of the camper by several times over. I can't think of many use cases where you'd go off grid with it and not run out of potable water within 24 hours. I guess with that wattage you could easily run an induction stove for several days worth of meals. Edit: actually more like 6000 watts of power.

[@aerobiotic]

I can't recall, but was there a shore power connection so that you could charge the batteries? You could get all charged up and the 200-watt solar panel would allow the system to equalize for all the parasitic power that is used from the inverter, etc.

[@PhonePhone-sf8te]

@@aerobiotic I would assume it would be built into that charge controller, I'm pretty sure that costs a few times more than the trailer it's bolted to.

[@cleoforester9954]
