    I like the idea that you do not have commercials on your channels. So many channels try to sell viewers something that is not as good as they say it is.

    Thanks, Jason! If people go AGM it’s usually because of the initial cost savings even though lithium is the better option for van life and more cost effective in the long run☺️

    The floor has been perfect temperature for me in all seasons. I will be installing a floor heat pad to use in the colder months, my heater will be on the floor and I can always lay a rug and wear socks. Thanks for watching!

    Can you give me the dimensions of your battery box. I recently purchased a 24 Sprinter and I just yesterday received the complete Explorer life electric package you recommended. I’m following your electric build step by step. Thank you, your videos on KZread are the best.

    Girl, I skipped the whole process as electrical intimidated me too much and got a Bluetti power station😂 The drawback is if something goes wrong, it all goes wrong😅

    Watch Will Prowse's videos on the Anker 767. Best all-in-one he's found. Nothing beats a Victron system though.
