Thanks Dan! It has been a fun project- I hope you take the time to check out my other videos. My last video shows the improvements I made on the front end as I did away with the LP water heater and installed an electric unit inside the trailer, under the sink. With nearly 14 Kw of power - it was nice to just go electric. Here is an easy way to find my other videos: youtube.com/@coachgym Thanks, again for watching. Jim

I built a solar system much like yours and use a mini split heat pump and I also put electric heat in the floor. In good sun I can run the a/c or the heat pump and floor heat all day with no problems. In cold weather I get the trailer warm during the day and then turn both heat systems to low and get through the entire night with no issues. It's been amazing. Awesome job you've done.

Thank you, John. Yes, you understand what goes into a build like this - it took more time and money then I thought but I’m enjoying it more than I thought. In my tight back yard I could not maneuver it without the Trax trailer dolly. I like the Chinese diesel heater - I installed it for winter use when solar production is lower - I have videos on the diesel heater install and the dolly. What supplemental heat did you use for the floor when not using the heat pump?

@@coachgym I used the electric wire panels that run on 120v. If you get the floor warm while the sun is shinning it stays warm all night on 55-60 Degree setting and does not use much power. Now I do have the floor insulated with 2" foam boards with the refelctive side towards the inside of the trailer. Rather than use a diesel heater I opted to bring a portable generator if were going into severe cold weather that way I could also charge the batteries if needed.

Dear Tiny - we have a Habitat For Humanity Restores outlet that I check out - just walk thru and see if anything will fit my needs. They had this high priced rubber flooring by Nora - a German Flooring manufacturer that primarily sells commercial in the US. I guess Home Depot donated it when it sat on their floor too long. It was a large roll and priced at $400.00 - that was too much for me but! 1/2 price sale came along! I have enough for another trailer. It is really nice. My wife said - why don’t you put it on the kitchen counter top - and I did! Then I found some trim - I’m really happy with it. Thanks for asking, Jim

Your build is one of the most efficient I've seen on a trailer build. The tracks on your roof used to mount your solar panels is very well put together most seem insufficient, have you experienced any leaks? I would love to see a vide explaining in detail your process putting together the roof and tongue . I'm in the process of ordering a rock solid trailer. unlike most folks I've designed my setup a bit backwards, I've been using my solar setup for over a year. it is built it in the Milwaukee pack-out rolling tool chest. 2X 100ah lithium, victron multiplus ii 12v, cerbo GX, 500amp smart shunt, battery sense, MPPT and 400watt eco-flow portable folding panel. We've had an outwell 7ATC tent for 3 years and plan on using it alongside the trailer in the summer, we also have a full hot water setup and a joolca tent which is transported and kept in the back of my truck 55 gallon. I do plan on adding 400watt of storage and a camplux on demand hot water heater to the trailer which will be built around the shower and kitchen. With the shower being upfront behind the utility closet dimensions 6ft wide from left of the trailer, 5ft from front. Kitchen is located in back 2ft from ramp door in the form of a 6ft left to right L-shaped Island with sink and bar stools on one side. This leaves us with a space in the center short 7 ft which we planned on placing an Ikea I-shap sofa bed sofa bed. Water tank is $150 gallon 11H X 39W X 81L this will be located under a raised platform between the spread axles which has a space of 84in and make an excellent frame with some hard rubber padding. Our trailer is ordered with a extra vented door in the V nose, and I moved the side RV door one foot towards the back of the trailer and plan on adding a dividing wall 1ft behind the V that will hold solar equipment water heater and mini split. Our trailer is a 8.5X18 spread axle with extra 12inch hight blackout package in silver. I really wanted black but that would be a heat nightmare, I think. All inputs and criticism are very welcome as we are trying to work out most bugs and Kinks before the building processes start.

Thanks, Michael Kaine - I’m thankful you like my build. I’ll say first - it sounds like you have some very good plans for your 8.5 X 18 trailer. I’ve not had any leaks - the unistrut bolted Thru the 1” square tubing with carriage bolts has worked great. In my solar video I have some good info & video on the unistrut rails - check it out: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pWOykntnr8-Xask The Dicor self leveling product is very good - if I were to do it again I would order at least one case - you might end up using two. The Dicor brand butyl tape is something else I’d order by the case. Use it between the unistrut & the roof - it does a great job & it is often used for windows & other penetrations. Getting the solar done before you take delivery of the trailer was a good idea too - yes, I had mine complete before too. I also think you are wise to place the water tank inside the trailer & not hang them below, like I did. You have more space with your trailer and it just works better to have them inside. You also are planning for items to be behind your axels- this too is a good idea as it will counterbalance your tongue weight. It is good you have done a lot of camping - this will help you with the design. I sure like my mini split - and there again - I think you have a good idea venting the V nose and putting the condensing unit, water heater, and solar controls in a little mechanical space. I asked that my side door be scooted back but they did not adjust it much - moving it back - especially on a 18’ trailer will be another good idea! Micheal - like I said at the start - you have some good ideas - I’m sure you will do great & ….you can always change things - my plan changed and I’m much happier with the changes.

Michael - thanks, again. Many good ideas on KZbin. Just build what works for you. Because I planned on hauling my motorcycle- things got pushed to the front - without the bike in the back it is a little tongue heavy - I offset it with blocks in crates near the back to counterbalance when I’m not hauling the bike. If I were to do it over I’d put the second 20 gallon tank behind the two axels - the front one is between the two axles. Finding the narrow 8” deep tanks was important. The tanks were cheaper than I thought they would be but by the time I mounted, heated, put level sensors on, & insulated them - they were over budget🤷🏼‍♂️. Oh, well, I’m happy with the final project and old enough all the kids are out of the house & done with college - and paying there own bills! 👍😆

@@coachgym Yeah, in all likelihood I'll always have a bike with me as that's my motivation for a cargo conversion to begin with. I'm at the early stage of just trying to work out what size trailer I want/need, and the basic layout, shower/toilet, bed, and misc. components. I haven't gotten into the specifics of tank placement, size, and weight distribution yet. But, I definitely WILL keep the weight distribution in mind when I get to the point of actually sitting down and putting pencil to paper and drawing up my final design. And yep. I turn 59 next month, single, daughter is grown and married, no grandkids yet, so it's just me to make happy. 😃 At the moment, I'm planning a simple build for weekends in the mountains. But, I'll likely retire in the next couple of years, so will consider a build that can grow with my needs if they change after retirement (larger solar system for example), but for now my plan is a simple cost effective conversion build. And who knows? Maybe I'll build a simple one now, learn what works, and decide to do another build when/if my needs change... Thanks again!

Extremely well planned and executed Jim!! I would be interested in more content on the build process. I’m interested in a description of the trailer in terms materials (all aluminum), suspension, lifts, and insulation materials applied. You seem to have struck a proper balance between practicality and a clean, quality finish. Nicely done from all prospectives.
@coachgym
@coachgym 2 жыл бұрын
Thanks Grumpyneanderthal - the trailer is a steel trailer with an aluminum skin - you can find the specs at Reed Trailer sales. For me the steel trailer was the best option. www.reedtrailer.com/ I did spec my trailer to come with a straight axle - at the time I purchased it in early 2021 there was no additional charge. I have purchased the Dexter kit to “flip” the axel and give me 5” more clearance - I have about 10” now - hope to install that in a few weeks. I put a lot of time & materials into the insulation. All the walls and ceiling have at least 3 types of insulation - so basically I have a multi layered method of insulation. First I installed the 1” of R-5 Foamular board, next two or three layers of double reflective radiant barrier, and lastly I used a full layer of 48” wide double reflective insulation radiant barrier (I had a roll of this left over from my attic insulation and I figured it would be a good final application before the interior finishes as the barrier does breath well). The steel square tubing of the trailer is 1” and I installed 1” wood furring strips on the inside walls with self tapping screws to allow the additional space for insulation and a good method to fasten finishes. Not really sure what the total R value is but it sure seems to do a good job.

@coachgym 2 жыл бұрын
Great suggestion! Caroline, this is one of the next iMovies I plan to make. the Solar really needs to be done or at least very well planned before anything above the floor. It was the very next thing I worked on after installing the tanks - hopefully you will review that video. The fastening system for the panels, I thought, really needed to fasten through the structural members of the top of the trailer. Using the exceptional Dicor 501LSW-1 self leveling lap sealant after placing the Dicor BT-1834-1 Butyl Seal Tape between all the Unistrut and the roof of the trailer is the key. I'll try to get that done in the next week or two. Thanks again for watching.

Thanks, Mo - yes, if I were younger I would do it different but I needed it to lower closer to the floor. There are many good ideas on elevator or lift beds.

That is a really nice build! I would like to see all the videos you have of the construction of it. And exactly how that bed operates. One suggestion if you haven't done it already is to hook up the rear lights you have in the roof to the backup light circuit on the truck. So when you are backing up at night you can see much better. I did it on my pontoon and it works amazingly well.
