Hi, people. I'm Kevin. I like mountain biking, skateboarding, and just about anything technology related. I work in IT as a Systems Administrator and enjoy it thoroughly. About 8 months ago, I started to get kind of bored with day to day things and was really craving to do something different for a while. With my lease ending in October, I had about 2 months to decide what sort of adventure to get into...
I ended up trading my car in for a 2016 Ram Promaster to outfit it to live in and travel around. I the majority of my belongings, keeping only the stuff I cared about...mountain bike, skateboard, and laptop...
When I bought the van it was basically just an empty shell in the back. So I had quite a bit of work to do. I purchased four 12v 100 watt solar panels to mount on the roof.
I bought 2 210 Amp-Hour batteries for the solar system to charge during the day, and my electronics would all get power from this.
I purchased a LED-light kit to wire into my system, it does all sort of colors and has a remote control.
Found a nice 12v TV that doesn't take up very much space and mounted it where I can lay in the bed and watch stuff.
More posts to come of the adventures in the van!
