Thanks. Yeah there is a lot of work in the electrical system. A lot of hours just researching it. I do need too draw up a wiring diagram. Just for trouble shooting. It is complicated but found most of the info online.
That diesel tank needs to be outside, fumes and smell every time you fill up stay in the trailer for a long time. Trust me I’m telling you because of my experience, also with the a/c you just need to install a soft start so you can run it with your inverter but of course you’ll need more panels and more batteries , specifically lifepo4 ones.
They make a device that hooks up to your air conditioner that will allow the pull less power to start up, that you can add, I saw another video I can't remember the name of it but maybe you can do research and then you can run your AC without Shore power
Did you do all of the electric work with setting up the inverter and the solar controllers? That's such an incredible setup and I wonder and someone It's very little experience could replicate it. Thanks again for sharing!
Hi. Thank you. I did do all the wiring. I’m not a electrician but I’ve worked and interested in electrical projects my whole life. I wouldn’t recommend a novice tackle this.
Something similar too this. www.amazon.com/Blaylock-American-Metal-TL-33-Coupler/dp/B000R6T8NW/ref=sr_1_27?dchild=1&keywords=hitch+lock&qid=1624921543&sr=8-27
It's the initial start of the compressor, it over powers the inverter. To start the A/C I would need a larger surge inverter. I incorrectly say that I have a 4000w inverter, its a 2000w with 4000w surge. With the roughly 100AH usable battery capacity I have it would not run it long.
@@Jb_Gaming108 - I can't definitively answer that. My A/C pulls about 15amp on steady load which is about 2000w. My 2000w inverter should run that if it would start it. I'm thinking if I stepped up to a 3000w continuous / 6000w surge it would run mine. I've read that the split A/C systems are much easier starting.
You should mount your fire extinguisher near the exit door... when you get to it, turn to look at the fire... you have the option to exit...
nice build - efficient and economical - we are doing ours now as well, im working currently on my water system, shower water containment etc.
Very nicely done. Looks great
Thanks
Get a local a/c guy to install a "hard start" capacitor to your a/c unit and it will start just fine. Mine cost me $40.
Excellent build. Would like to see the list of electrical equipment items , and how they all are wired. Looks really well done!

Have had black vehicles since the 70s...They look good only when they are clean.. good on you.
Sweet looking set up
Nice set up. Thanks for sharing.

Nice video cargo hauler i am going looking i have no leg i build out for me

Very nice -- cheers
Look great. What do you have for a hitch lock for the receiver.
Something similar too this.

Roger dag gummit why didn't you wash and wax that trailer before you made this video? LOL nice set up you have going for you.
Any leaking issues with the roof top AC?
None so far.
Can a suv like an Infiniti QX60 pull this trailer?
Check it’s rated towing capacity. Need 7000 lb.
Cool
So with everything off you still can't start ac or how would you go about fixing that problem if u want to stay off grid

Thanks I've looked at alot of conversion videos im in the works of doing a conversion just looking for Knowledge
So to run a/c what size inveterate would you need

Thanks for the info sir ill get to building and ill let you know how it turn out thank you and take care
What size trailer is that?
Hey Mark, it is a 16’ x 7’ with 8’ ceiling.
