Like the underside lights and the GSI stove was cool. But the last mod from Chris with the AC vents with screens was awesome. A nice cheap mod that everyone can afford.
BTF lighting is where I bought the supplies. There are a few led strip choices but I chose the 4in1 strip with warm white to keep the bugs away. You kind of have to do some research to figure out what all you need because it doesn’t come as a kit. I went with 24 volt but I bet 12 volt would probably work too. The advantage of 12 volt is you don’t need a power supply. You can plug directly to your breaker panel
@@patricktrier4503 where did you get the connections? I am doing an awning this winter, and am looking at doing something similar, but am struggling with connecting them all together, and how I want to do that. Currently, the kits I am looking at, from BTF, arent waterproof, so I was going to simply heat shrink them. But, I like your idea better, with the waterproof connectors!!! Mind sharing a build list?
@@oldsoldier181 they are on the btf lighting website as well. The led strip I used required 5 pin led connector cable. They also make the splitter cable. Mine required 1 - 3 way split and 2 - 2way splitters. Then one role of the wire. There website isn’t the easiest to navigate but I was able to find everything I needed there except for the entry gland that I bought on Amazon. That is the piece brings the wires into the trailer completely sealed and waterproof
Hey, I’ve had a hiker trailer almost a year now. I’d love to come to a camp out meetup. When’s the next event ?!? Where could I find info on the meetups ? Can anyone help
LOVE the bug screens on the air intakes! How clever. I'll be stealing that.

Great job Matt & Wendy love your walk-throughs
Yep, the "passive air flow" vents using nylon screening mat'l form local hardware store, and some Valterra parts (amazon) are super easy.
The lights on the underside of the awning supports was cool! Where did he get those from?
I was coming to post the same thing! I foresee a ton of those being purchased and installed by Hiker owners with a 270° awning.

Where can we get the screened vents, I believe you said in the past they were 3D printed, that go over the AC ports?
Reach out to us at mwdadventures@gmail.com and we can email you the details.
Dang you guys, I'm considering a Hiker again 🤔?! 🤣🤣🤣..
:-) - we do have a way of being convincing

Sweetie...all of the fast "yeps" sort of make it sound like you are in a hurry to cut the interview and move on. How big are these rallies?
