    Your van build is gorgeous and so functional! I think you were smart not to add a lot of decor to the van. That will allow you to find pieces that you love from your travels and add them to the van at your leisure! It is so sad to fall in love with a beautiful little something but have no space to put it!

    • @lydiaandwehan
      @lydiaandwehan  Рік тому +5

      Thank you so much, we really built it to what we thought we would need and it’s ended up perfect! 🚐 And you’re so right, I’m sure we’re going to come across some beautiful pieces on the road that mean a lot more than if we had rushed to find things before setting out on the lap. 😊

    I’ve seen many van conversion reviews and this is by far the best one. Amazing layout and plenty of storage while still having room to move around. I don’t usually leave comments, but I am very impressed. Great job guys!

    Your build came out pretty incredible... I mean, it is utterly GORGEOUS. Not sure if Wehan is an electrician/wood craftsman or just a natural genius, but I did get lost on the electrical/inverter/yadda yadda stuff- I wish so much that my brain could understand it since I will be building out a Promaster soon. Anyway, thank you for sharing - so inspiring! Seriously, your van is beautiful!! I think you showed everything but where all your clean clothes are stored. I have so many clothes, I can't imagine sharing that kind of space with another with the amount I have, lol

    • @lydiaandwehan
      @lydiaandwehan  2 роки тому +5

      Wow thank you so much, that really means a lot 💙 The van definitely exceeded our expectations and despite the stresses of the build we're now very glad we did it and wouldn't have it any other way!
      To be honest, he's just a natural genius (but don't tell him I said that 🤣). I definitely get lost with the electrical side of things too so don't worry you're not the only one. If it was up to Wehan he would have rambled about it for hours!
      Best of luck with your build, I'm sure it'll be amazing 😊

      I designed my 3500 Promaster last year, and trust me, you will learn your electrical system like the back of your hand because in order to do this, you have to do that, but if you want to do that, you must do the other. Lol. I was intimidated at first, but after living with it, you truly get to a point in which you really understand it. Good luck with your build. 😊

    You are the first Van video person I have seen make a point of DC to DC computer charging!!
    Finally!!
    Love it. Totally the most efficient way to power anything that can take DC.
    I turn on my inverter for the microwave, the induction cooktop, and things that aren't used often so they did not make my mental list.

    • @lydiaandwehan
      @lydiaandwehan  2 роки тому +2

      Thank you so much! The DC2DC chargers are great. Especially with some of the vans having such capable alternators. It’s also nice not having to rely on the weather or campsites to be ideal for solar charging. 😅
      Another great option would’ve been a supplementary alternator for the house battery but the pricing on the DC2DC chargers were much more appealing (at the time of purchase) and some of these vans have such capable alternators from factory.

    I’ve seen alot of van builds over multi countries. But this 1 is absolutely perfect. Every thought, every detail, cost cutting that makes ton of sense, I love it.
    Only thing I think I’d add would be a small window between the kitchen sink & work area. An make the shower just a little bigger. Other than that I wouldn’t change a thing. An you 2 need now is some home touch’s, plants, pictures. You 2 are awesome, look forward to more video’s, so glad I came across this 1.

    • @lydiaandwehan

  • @maobfh
    @maobfh Рік тому +1

    This is such an excellent build! I have planned the same thing as far as colors go. White. Because you can go in any direction from there, even change it if the mood strikes by changing the fabrics. I would NOT worry about art or decoration on any of the walls. You are just starting your journey and there is going to be an amazing shot that you love so much and have to enlarge it, so many magical moments that you want to remember that you will find after a few years that you are running out of wall space. So be picky, even now, about what you allow to go up and stay with you. That’s my opinion, anyway. It’s kind of like when you got your first wallet or purse and you looked around to find things to put in it, but later you realize that necessary things would pop up and filling it was not really a concern. Not over-filling it quickly becomes the priority. Try to resist the temptation to pick up anything that needs a flat surface to sit on, unless you are into tiny things that can live in a shadow box on a wall. IMHO, anyway.
    Love everything! Really smart! Thanks

    • @lydiaandwehan
      @lydiaandwehan  Рік тому +1

      Thank you so much, that really means a lot! 😊 We really have loved the white and how bright and open it feels. You're right, I'm sure we'll find things we love as we go and we have all the time in the world to decorate and add those things later! It's better to be picky now so we can enjoy those things later on. Best of luck with your own build.

    Wow….. what an amazing conversion van. Your build is so beautiful. In fact… It’s so beautiful I would love to have the design plans. I have been watching Skoolie conversions for about 3 years now. I am almost 70… finally I decided a bus is too big, but your Beautiful conversion van would be perfect. I can’t go full time but the times I do go I want it to feel like home. Lydia and Wehan…. Thank you for sharing your van with us all here in the USA on UA-cam. Please let me know about the plans since they are measured down to the inch…. I really truly fell in Love!

    • @lydiaandwehan
      @lydiaandwehan  Рік тому +1

      Thank you so much, that's so kind of you! We totally get that, we felt a bus would be too big for us also and would have been a little nervous driving it around 😅 We were thinking of posting the plans on our website so everyone can access it, Wehan just has to tidy them up a little and see if he can make them suitable for other people to work off. He really just did them for himself thinking no one would ever see them and he'd never have to use them again haha. I'll reach back out again once we've got them up 😊

      We were a little worried that would be the case but we’ve had no issues at all and we love them! The ‘hallway’ section in the middle though is pretty spacious in our van, if it was a tight squeeze in the middle it might be a different story. They’re 96mm, they’re these ones www.bunnings.com.au/taskmaster-96mm-matte-black-hollow-square-handle-10-pack_p0132784

    Hello guys, love the video ! I'm still in the learning phase of van builds so please bare with my uneducated question. My question is, how is your reverse cycle AC/(heater ?) getting powered? You mentioned in the video that it's being powered by diesel?? Can you please give me a bit more info with that ? I don't really know what that means. You also mentioned that your water heater runs on diesel? So your AC and heater, and water heater runs from the same system? 😵‍💫😵‍💫
    Thank you in advance, looking forward to hear back from you.

    Hey from Canada, eh!
    Subscribed!
    Oh also! If you wish to get rid of any shine on surfaces, get yourself a circular polarizing filter for your camera, you can cut down any reflections and really improve the color, works wonders on blue skies as well, just think of putting your sunglasses over your lens, if you have enough light, those filters are AWESOME!

    • @lydiaandwehan
      @lydiaandwehan  2 роки тому

      Welcome, thank you so much! We really appreciate it. Wehan definitely could have spent the whole video talking about the electrical 🤣
      We actually looked at heading to Canada prior to all of the lockdowns, hopefully we'll be able to make our way there in the future. 🇨🇦
      And thank you! We have a circular polarizing filter for our 'b-roll' camera and a variable ND filter for our main 'vlog' camera. They've helped SO MUCH!!

      Thank you so much! 💙 We’ve put together a full post listing everything we used and where to get it, here’s the link: lydiaandwehan.com/our-full-van-setup/. The bug screen is the Pillar Link Screen Pleated Flyscreen Door from Bunnings. Just noting however that they do say that the width is adjustable but the height isn’t. It was a lot of effort to adjust the height but Wehan managed to figure it out for us, which I’m super grateful for as we love it. But it required cutting the channels, removing linkages and re-tensioning the pulleys.

    Great to see your van and Wehan's enthusiasm for all the neat features you've added, though I detected Lydia's excitement escaping too!
    You appear to fit together really well, which is great to see after the stress of a long build whilst living with Lydia's mum and then 3 months in the van.
    I hope you didn't feel too rushed into making the van tour video with so many people asking for it ... Really comprehensive tour with humour and great banter ... Still a lovely layout that's well finished, stylish and full of great touches.
    My personal favourite is the spice drawer!

    • @lydiaandwehan
      @lydiaandwehan  2 роки тому

      Thanks so much! The tour definitely allowed us to take it all in and really appreciate all of Wehan's hard work.... And the van tour gave him the perfect opportunity to ramble about all of the technical things he loves so much 😝
      And thank you! Surprisingly, despite the stress of the build it definitely brought us closer together and able to appreciate each other more. Even after 12 years together it gave us a new level of respect and understanding of each other.
      The spice drawer is pretty amazing! Almost 3 months in and we still really love it.
