    Your van build is gorgeous and so functional! I think you were smart not to add a lot of decor to the van. That will allow you to find pieces that you love from your travels and add them to the van at your leisure! It is so sad to fall in love with a beautiful little something but have no space to put it!

    Your build came out pretty incredible... I mean, it is utterly GORGEOUS. Not sure if Wehan is an electrician/wood craftsman or just a natural genius, but I did get lost on the electrical/inverter/yadda yadda stuff- I wish so much that my brain could understand it since I will be building out a Promaster soon. Anyway, thank you for sharing - so inspiring! Seriously, your van is beautiful!! I think you showed everything but where all your clean clothes are stored. I have so many clothes, I can't imagine sharing that kind of space with another with the amount I have, lol

    Wow thank you so much, that really means a lot 💙 The van definitely exceeded our expectations and despite the stresses of the build we're now very glad we did it and wouldn't have it any other way! To be honest, he's just a natural genius (but don't tell him I said that 🤣). I definitely get lost with the electrical side of things too so don't worry you're not the only one. If it was up to Wehan he would have rambled about it for hours! Best of luck with your build, I'm sure it'll be amazing 😊

    I designed my 3500 Promaster last year, and trust me, you will learn your electrical system like the back of your hand because in order to do this, you have to do that, but if you want to do that, you must do the other. Lol. I was intimidated at first, but after living with it, you truly get to a point in which you really understand it. Good luck with your build. 😊

    You are the first Van video person I have seen make a point of DC to DC computer charging!! Finally!! Love it. Totally the most efficient way to power anything that can take DC. I turn on my inverter for the microwave, the induction cooktop, and things that aren't used often so they did not make my mental list.

    Thank you so much! The DC2DC chargers are great. Especially with some of the vans having such capable alternators. It’s also nice not having to rely on the weather or campsites to be ideal for solar charging. 😅 Another great option would’ve been a supplementary alternator for the house battery but the pricing on the DC2DC chargers were much more appealing (at the time of purchase) and some of these vans have such capable alternators from factory.

Only thing I think I’d add would be a small window between the kitchen sink & work area. An make the shower just a little bigger. Other than that I wouldn’t change a thing. An you 2 need now is some home touch’s, plants, pictures. You 2 are awesome, look forward to more video’s, so glad I came across this 1.

    This is such an excellent build! I have planned the same thing as far as colors go. White. Because you can go in any direction from there, even change it if the mood strikes by changing the fabrics. I would NOT worry about art or decoration on any of the walls. You are just starting your journey and there is going to be an amazing shot that you love so much and have to enlarge it, so many magical moments that you want to remember that you will find after a few years that you are running out of wall space. So be picky, even now, about what you allow to go up and stay with you. That’s my opinion, anyway. It’s kind of like when you got your first wallet or purse and you looked around to find things to put in it, but later you realize that necessary things would pop up and filling it was not really a concern. Not over-filling it quickly becomes the priority. Try to resist the temptation to pick up anything that needs a flat surface to sit on, unless you are into tiny things that can live in a shadow box on a wall. IMHO, anyway. Love everything! Really smart! Thanks

It's better to be picky now so we can enjoy those things later on. Best of luck with your own build.

    Just discovered your channel from this video, love the attention to detail and really going into detail for the electrical! Hey from Canada, eh! Subscribed! Oh also! If you wish to get rid of any shine on surfaces, get yourself a circular polarizing filter for your camera, you can cut down any reflections and really improve the color, works wonders on blue skies as well, just think of putting your sunglasses over your lens, if you have enough light, those filters are AWESOME!

We have a circular polarizing filter for our 'b-roll' camera and a variable ND filter for our main 'vlog' camera. They've helped SO MUCH!!

    Thank you so much! 💙 We’ve put together a full post listing everything we used and where to get it, here’s the link: lydiaandwehan.com/our-full-van-setup/. The bug screen is the Pillar Link Screen Pleated Flyscreen Door from Bunnings. Just noting however that they do say that the width is adjustable but the height isn’t. It was a lot of effort to adjust the height but Wehan managed to figure it out for us, which I’m super grateful for as we love it. But it required cutting the channels, removing linkages and re-tensioning the pulleys.
