    Best small generator that will fit between van wheel wells?

    Thats good enough for me! thanks! i guess that attaches with cables to your batteries then plugs into the generator? are they "smart" where it would be able to have the AC and the charger both plugged in (probably after the ac is done with the starting watts)

    Best small generator that will fit between van wheel wells?

    OK. can you explain why i cant do that? and if i run the ac straight from the generator, can i still attach the generator to battery bank somehow so it charges them with the extra watts?

    Best small generator that will fit between van wheel wells?

    I am connecting a 3000-3500w inverter to my batteries, so the starting watts (assuming you meant watts not amps) of the AC will be just fine off of the batteries alone, the problem is it wont last off the batteries power for very long, so i need to run a generator when its running so it actually...

    A few tax questions

    I do not as ive been working for fleet owners and my deductions have been standard enough for me to do myself with credit karma tax. I want to do all the profit and loss myself but i am going to pay someone to file for me. I guess i should get that person in line and ask them these questions.

    Putting down insulation before plywood floor of van?

    I think what I'm going to end up doing is filling in the space between the XM's (cross members) with sheet and spray insulation so the gaps are level with the XMs. Doesn't sound like refletix will do much good under the plywood so e track down on the cross members with pre drilled holes for the...

    Battery setup help

    for me its straight convenience. If I'm in my underwear sleeping and I get up cause I'm hungry I can just use my microwave on the shelf instead of getting dressed and going in the store. The whole cost for everything I'm doing to set up my van will only be around $2500-$3500, and that's based...

    Yeah you are right. I just did a aux battery calculator. based off of using 1500watts, which is a little high of an estimation to add 600w on top of the AC but just for kicks, with 12v batteries (2 6v) comes to about 115amps. in order to run that straight for 12 hours I need about 3000ah of...

    Can i screw into the floor of promaster in the front floor?

    Yeah. Is it possible that I could remove just the back rest of the passenger seat? That would give me a lot more to work with.

    Dash cam suggestions

    I saw one being advertised on qvc that attaches to your rear mirror. Seemed like a nice one. I like the idea because its not going to go anywhere if you get in an accident i dont trust the suction cup or adhesive attached ones to not fly out of place with an accident.
