Wow! This is coming right along! Thank you so much for walking us through the process!
You’re very welcome!!! Thanks for the comment!
Great video mate, loved your previous too where you showed how to connect thru fuse box.
This just makes more sense to just do everything you can do as most people do in an everyday environment! Thx🌻
Thanks!
I have the Goal Zero 1500x and a 170 watt solar panel with two Battle Born batteries and living in Hawaii. With the sun blaring everyday I have no problem relying almost solely on my solar panel battery bank. I cook on a induction stove primarily. Love my 1500x.
That’s great to hear!!!! Thanks for sharing
@@AnkeneyVanBuilds Can you tell me what your favorite induction cook top is??
amzn.to/3l0pahR
This one!
I have a 12v refrigerator how long will it stay on with the Goal Zero 1500, Thanks
Love the design of Your Van. stopped to see the GZ Battery demo and found it interesting. I've had a GZ1400 since 2018. Bought the whole house kit with four back up batteries in Feb this year but difficulties getting it connected due to rural area of MT and few electrcians who will be bothered yet alone actually respond to your request to call back when all you leave is your # and name. So meantime we will get there but trying to catch up to newer GZ posts. Instead I love your van and can see some options for improving say an older van I'm looking for to update. I've narrowed my search down to Pleasure Ways and A couple of others but PW is so far leading in my interest. I want gas no diesel though I used to think diesel until I discovered the cost to maintain one over the cost of gasoline. Still learning and still open minded. But your woodwork and classy fridge and simple products yet high end looking is appealing. I couldn't afford Iknow but I can drool. Nice job in showing what your GZ could do too by the way.
Great to see the stress test! helps alot in decision making! thanks!
So glad it was helpful!
Colton, I like your presentation style and your interior design (build) look and finish. I am a new fan and subscriber to your channel. I intend to watch more of your videos. You are doing a very good job. In this video I especially liked seeing the finished counter tops. As I recall you builds those yourself (joined walnut boards as I recall). The finished look is great!
Welcome!! Thanks for watching my videos! I appreciate the comment. The countertops did turn out great!
Thanks for running the stress test for us and helping make the option between propane or induction.....its a pretty big decision and a lot of money either way so its nice to know the pros and cons
You're welcome! Glad the video helped. It is a tough decison but I'm pretty stoked with this induction!
So happy you're happy with induction. Glad I suggested it to you. I should have also mentioned that you needed specific pots and pans, but you're good brother.
Thanks for the recommendation! Im super happy with it. And I knew you needed special pans, I just figured id have one... I was wrong hahaha
I like the induction stove option. You can always look at more options to have other alternatives to get more stuff off your battery. You can other smaller solar stuff run off other smaller solar batteries. That would be a more redundant system too
Great Info!! Thanks Steve
That’s my plan. Have it at home and love it!
Nice!’
I have an induction 4-burner range/oven by Frigidaire at home and love it. It is easy to use and to keep it clean. The only time you want the higher power on the induction top is when you are heating up the pan. Once water is boiling, it takes less energy to keep it boiling which means where you have standard 110/120 vs. the 220 for my stove, you can do a lot of cooking without really losing any function of one burner shifting to a lower power while you have one on high or power boost.
Overall induction does not just heat up the pan and food, far faster, it does not heat up your room or your van or RV. So the energy being used is not wasting the heat but using it efficiently. Moreover, there is less build up of cooking oils on your cabinets so in a small Camper/Van/RV, you will have a cleaner environment to eat and sleep and drive on down the road. When one is in vacation mode, the less cleaning required is a big plus.
We have an older RV and I want a two-burner induction for our motor home as I am spoiled by the ease of use of the induction range. Induction overall is safer and once you learn about how to use it, clean it, what power or temperature your favorite foods cook best at, there are no regrets for ditching natural gas/propane at all.
Nice video. Was your two-burner induction cooktop rated for an RV? We are looking at the difference between those so rated and the ones which are for household use.
Another amazing video! I have been looking at way to power in very thing in my new van build. Some of these videos a confusing to say the least. Your video is going to simplify the most confusing part is f my build. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Love to hear it! So glad I can help
One thing I've noticed testing burners for my van is most of the dual burner cooktops won't max one burner out at their max capacity, usually a smidge more than half like you are noticing, so a single burner can boil your water faster and heat up hotter than the dual burner.
Yup exactly!
I have an induction stove and love it. I power my stove with my Goal Zero 1400 or my Honda eu22001 depending on the weather outside.
Very cool!!! That’s awesome
what stove brand did you go with?
Many thanks ,very beautiful nice to run .
My is 1000 X and I m happy. I bought from the Costco store it was price $ 1,499 dollars 💵
Nice!!!
Fantastic review. Much thanks
Of course!
I like the induction system! And…you could always keep a Coleman stove setup in the garage as backup. I plan for my entire system to be solar but will always practice the 7 P’s!!
Very true! What’s the 7 Ps?
@@AnkeneyVanBuilds Dude, I thought everyone in the military was taught the 7 P’s….proper prior planning prevents piss poor performance! Or is that just a Navy thing? LOL, spent 12 yrs in. It is my mantra and I preach it to all!
@@trishharris2565 ah I’m an idiot for not catching that. I’m familiar with the phrase 😂. It’s an army thing too
@@AnkeneyVanBuilds yup! I do have a legit question, though. Does having a GZ 3000X free me up from needed an inverter and a bank of LI batteries?
@@trishharris2565 the GZ does have lithium batteries and a built in Inverter !
That cooktop is gorgeous. I believe that particular brand will only draw about 800 watts per burner on medium(5) setting. Your woodwork is beautiful. Cooking with electricity rather than propane or butane is much dryer, safer, and cleaner.
I agree. Induction is pretty awesome. I’m not a fan of propane at all
Which cooktop is this??
I have followed your build and find your explanations easy to understand and very helpful for my build plan. Thanks for testing the gold zero. I think an actual cook test would have helped us a little more. Anyone can boil water and frankly a short high load is great but if I can’t cook a full meal without depleting my batteries a cooktop is useless as is the GZ. I can’t live on boiled water. I didn’t notice the GZ model either. I may have missed that. I’m leaning to the Titan. Cheers from Canader eh!
I know!!! I'm sorry about that. I had all the intentions of doing that but I guess I don't own any pans that work with induction. I would feel confident that the goal zero could easily run the induction stove for full meals. Ive seen another video of a guy testing it out, cooked for over 30 minutes and only lost about 15% battery
I'm all in on induction but only cuz propane scares me. Love your counter tops nice job
Induction is sick!
Yeah gonna try induction H,20 boiling.
Great idea 👍
Thanks 🙏🏻
Awesome!!!!
🤘🏻🤘🏻
Interesting test. Thank You.
You’re welcome!
Mine does. I have a goal zero 1400 and a nuwave pic flex induction. I use it in my camper always since I try to avoid propane.
Yeah I don’t think I’ll ever go back to propane!
Can you tell me what solar panel you use and how long goal zero 1400 last to cook a simple meal with nuwave induction?
@@bprowd I have 3X100W solar panels from renogy on the roof! And I’ve never used a newave induction but I’d imagine it’s pretty similar. A simple meal might take out 5-10% battery
Thanks
You’re welcome!
Many pros and i would say one con to consider ....If you hsve a pacemaker induction is bad for you because intereference with magnetic fields of the two.
Great video! Question: how is the Dometic CRX 65 connected to the Goal Zero? It was delivered to me with just a black and red wire. I have the Yeti 1000x but no idea how to connect it.
You can save a bit of power by putting a lid on pans and using a kettle to boil water.
Tru!
Amazing video
Thanks!
i think if you go to the website - on any goal zero over ?? 1500, you can get an attachment to wire it to your alternator to power up too? I think.
We are on the list for Scout camper and I want to use a induction. It comes with 1000x. Thanks for the info. Subcribing.
Awesome! Thank you!
I might be wrong. You don’t need the max output cable. The Anderson plug under the lid is a 30amp plug. Correct me if I’m wrong
I’ve read that using all 4 of the 12V plugs gives you a total of 40 amps.. but again I also could be wrong
Induction cooktop is the future of cooking.
Can this untit be charged from split charger off the alternator from the van
Great stress test. I'm looking at all in one kits like the Yeti 3000x or the 6000x for power. I like the induction and plan to have a stow away one. Curious is it would handle an Arfryer or Instapot.
I do like the speed of camp stoves for boiling water. And would use smaller propane tanks.
It all depends on the specs of an airfryer and instapot. But Id be confident in the Goal zero! I was thoroughly impressed with the stress test.
Will this be the only power your installing or you’ll start here first?
@@1lifewanderlust I use my small Instant Pot with my 1000 Watt Inverter and no problem. I think my Instant pot is only 800 Watts.
If you are going to cook with electric, you should by a system with LiFePo4 batteries.
Those batteries support a lot more cycles, you will were out the battery very fast if you do this.
The negative with LiFePo4 is that the energy density is lower....
Very interesting! thank you for you feed back. I know the Goal zero has a life expectancy of 2000 cycles from full charge to discaharge
@@AnkeneyVanBuilds A NMC (lithium-manganese-cobalt-oxide) battery have a lower 100% DOD cycle life than 2000. The 2000 cycle life is achieved by having a buffer on the top and the bottom. (All "solar generators" and EVs have those buffers)..
In comparison, a LiFePo4 have a cycle life of 2000 at 100% DOD, but can have 6000 at 80%DOD.
In addition a lithium battery also degrade as a function of voltage, temperature and time.
LiFePo4 have a lower cell voltage, and thereby a lower calendar degradation.
Bug again, it's less dense. So you get a larger unit or a smaller battery in kWh.
A tip if you only need more storage, and already have a Goal Zero...: You can get a 12V LiFePo4 battery, and use the 12V charger cable to recharge the Goal Zero.
In addition to an increase in storage, by having a 12V LiFePo4 connected to the Goal zero you are at the same time reducing the cycles the non-replaceable battery gets...
@@MichaelEricMenk you really know your stuff!
I'm looking for an oven or toaster oven something that can bake using electric
i see you've switched over out of propane. pretty good move imo. Question though, how did you finish the sliding door and the back doors? Do you have a video of that already somewhere and i'm just missing it? I'm close to doing the walls in my build and would like to finish the doors as well.
I filmed it but have yet to edit it and post it. Send me a DM on instagram and ill send you photos and explain in detail!
I like Induction, but I was thinking of a solar set with batteries, now I'm thinking about using the gold what do Suggest, I'll be running almost exactly what you ran, Thanks
I liked the video before watching it
Yes!! Love it
Love your build! Can I ask if your Yeti inverter fan turns on for a split second when you first press the AC button?
Hm, I don’t remember, I have sold this van and can’t remember if it did or not!
@@AnkeneyVanBuilds thanks anyway 🙂
@@OutdoorsIQ you’re welcome!
Great video. I was thinking of getting a goal zero like yours. Problem is: I have as 12v many devices and goal zero doesn’t have many 12v ports. I would like to connect a maxi fan plus fridge plus lights and water pump but how could I do that??
Buy the max output cable and wire that to a fuse block. Then wire all your 12V to the fuse block :) check out my “finishing touches video” I explain it there. In my next build series I’ll make a dedicated video explaining it better!
1. I’m moving out to save money
2. I’m using a 2500$ battery to boil water
Sounds like a great plan 😂
@@AnkeneyVanBuilds I get it you need it for van life
@@N_scale hey I laughed haha. That was a good observation 😂
Use the yeti as backbup. Go with a proper lithium battery set up Min 300 watt hrs
The yeti has been excellent tho
@@AnkeneyVanBuilds ok cool
Have you thought about running a 2-battery setup for the van to run/charge accessories via a 2nd car battery?
The Goal zero does have a 12V cigarette plug charger that can plug into your car and charge while it is running! I haven't messed around with that before but that would be a good option to have in the cloudy days
The problem is the Lifecyle Yeti's have a 500 fully charged to fully discharge, while battleborn batteries have 5000 cycles. PSA
It’s actually an expected 2000 cycles! After 500 cycles of being fully discharged it’s still works at 80%!
How did you wire this? Did you hardwire through a breaker box or just plug directly into the yeti?
Plugged an extension cord into the yeti. Then the stove into the extension cord!
can you show how you wire the induction to the goal zero yeti 1500x? Do you use a separate fuse box? Sorry I am a noob and am looking at doing something similar to your set up with the induction cooktop
The induction runs off a 110V plug (same as your standard wall plug in a house) so I plugged an extension cord into the goal zero and plugged the stove into the extension cord!
Don’t apologize for being a noob :) we’ve all been there!
@@AnkeneyVanBuilds thanks !
If you maxed out the power use like that and totally drained the battery using that much power at once....would there be negative affects on the battery? or other parts of the goal zero?
Goal zeros are rated to do 2000 drains from 100% to 0%. After the 2000 the battery life will not perform better than 85%
How did you wire everything into the Goal Zero?
Hey!! I purchased the Max out put cable from goal zero and wired it to a fuse block. Then wired it all to that! I show what that looks like in the video linked bellow. As far as the 110V appliances. I used an extension cord and plugged it into the outlets on the goal zero.
ua-cam.com/video/Jb5v_NUoFoU/v-deo.html
Awesome, goal zero sounds great. Lots of pros for the induction then but p.s. Con of induction: propane is much better for high-quality cooking, all chefs use propane.
Very true!
Not true actually. Induction is newish , but there are several chefs and restaurants who are beginning to switch over, particularly in Europe.
Did you do the complete wiring with the GoalZero yet? (Oh, and you videos are super helpful)
I talk about the wiring in my 12V light and "finishing touches" video!
Thank you
What you think about the bluetti as a power source over the yeti
Good question. I’ve never looked into a bluetti. So I don’t know. Sorry!
I have a Bluetti eb70 and Goal Zero 500x. Goal zero loses battery while idle but the Bluetti doesn't. Love them both. Different lithium.
Induction is so much safer.
💯
How do you power your Van for the rest of the day do you have solar and other dedicated batteries
I have the solar and the goal zero! And it’s been great!
Where is your build company located
@@Dragonflies1928 Boise, Idaho
What model of the goal zero you used?
Goal zero yeti 1500x!
Hello, just wondering which make of the stove top is this. I could not find it online. Also is it hardwired or plugged into your inverter?
amzn.to/3kotx72
It is plugged in!
@@AnkeneyVanBuilds thank you :)
Hello Colton, this is the first of your videos I have seen. I liked it very much. What size Goal Zero Yeti was the induction cooktop connected to? I watched the video twice and I may have missed it, but I didn’t hear what size system you were using.
It’s a 1500X!
How many solar panels are you used and batteries
300W and the Goal zero 1500x
What do you think would be enough to power...ready? Here goes! 2 laptops, 2 monitors, a/c, fridge, tankless hot water heater, induction stove top lights, .. I think that's about it.. 2 phones
2 phones!? You’re rollin it it haha. Jk. The 1500 might be able to handle that. Don’t know how much power that hot water heater takes. But the 3000x would be very capable of that
what is the diffrence between a unit like gozero and 2 normal lithium batteries?
The goal zero is a plug and play system with a built in inverter. It simplifies the electrical system quite a bit!
@@AnkeneyVanBuilds The volume plug and play cannot be understated when you're talking about solar
Is the total output actually higher because of the input from the solar coming in at the same time?
No that just helps it recharge. Doesn’t effect the output!
Curious if you've had more time since this video to decide if one should go with the 3000 rather than the 1500. Its a LOT more money but what do you think?
I’m personally a fan of the 3000x. Especially in winter. The battery last SO long without being charged
You’re going to hate that Goal Zero Yeti in a year. Mine, even though I live full time in my van, went to s**t at 13 months.
What is going wrong with it?
Hey guys,
can anyone tell, if there is a 1800w Induction dual cooktop on the EU-market???
(Thanks for the Video btw!!!)
You’re welcome for the video. Good luck on your search!
How did you secure the induction?
Honestly don’t remember exactly. I just followed the instructions. I believe it just screws into the counter
I love your van build. Is that yours or someone you did a build for? I want a completed van but they can be ridiculously expensive 😳
I built this one to sell :). Vans are in VERY high demand!

I highly doubt that goal zero will execute tasks as such.
Did you watch the video? Because it literally did
not convinced. amount of power it acteueally takes from gold zero, then the recharging time is a factor, if your dependant on gold zero, not gonna take you too far out camping. lol...ehhh not a go for me...blessings
Ive been doing it for 3 years, no problems
My goalzero yeti setup caught on fire in my truck causing damage. I'd think again if you're going to install their Chinese made goods in your vehicles. I've been emailing them for weeks and they will not reply to me. I expected better from what I thought was the top company in this industry.
Caught on fire???? How??
