In part 2 of my van build series I design and build a sofa that pulls out into a bed, and then install a solar powered off-grid electrical system into it. I really should have split this up into 2 separate videos because it’s going to be a nightmare for SEO now. Oh well, guess that’s on me for making big claims at the end of the last video. This time you’ll notice I kept my big mouth shut about what’s coming next. Because there’s soooo much more to do…. I really underestimated this project.

Honestly, I based my whole system off their resources so just go there if you have any questions, they’ve probably done a whole video on it already.
