These modifications can definitely be replicated in many B-class RVs including the Winnebago Revel, the Airstream Interstate 19, as well as some American Coach, Pleasure-Way, and RoadTrek RVs.

Hello everyone, welcome to my channel. Like so many others, my lifestyle changed due to the pandemic.
Before the pandemic, my families lives had become so hectic & busy that there never seemed to be a good time to travel anymore. Somewhere along the line we realized that our last vacation was in 2011. We decided that it was time we made some travel plans.
Then the pandemic hit! I no longer wanted to travel by plane or stay in a hotel. We decided that a better and safer alternative would be to travel in our own vehicle, one that we could also sleep in, cook our own meals in, vacation in. The rest is history!
However, the RV shopping process is not easy and required a lot of research. I want to share what I have learned along with my ongoing experiences and adventures through my channel which offers:
RV tours / walkthroughs
Camping destinations
Hiking
RV modifications & DIYs
RV Cooking
And much more…..
So I invite you to come along with me on this ongoing RV journey.
I don’t think Ryker Dad gets enough props for his excellent camera skills 😉
He does do great camera work. Thanks for watching!
I was just going to ask who your camera person was. Fantastic job!
Great idea to maximize space. One step I would mention is to check that the outlet has power prior to putting the refrigerator back in place, just in case.
Yes, Great reminder for others watching this video. I did do that but forgot to mention that in the video. Thanks for Watching!
A great mod. I’ve been looking at this type of setup, since I work from home, if I want to purchase a Sprinter. This is a great setup, low cost, and efficient. You make things that are practical, also you add the confidence that people need to step out on their own, and do that DIY. The more I look at a Tranquility/Serenity, and your modifications, the more I’d like to make the investment and get one. Life is short, live the adventure and enjoy. Thanks RM!!!
Thank you so much for the compliments. I also work from home but I am planning to spend some time on the road this year and want to still be able to work. This set-up is more comfortable than my home office and will allow me to work from just about anywhere. You are right, life is short. Thanks for Watching!
@@Adventure-Mom I'm looking for a similar rig, and mostly will be rolling solo.
Can you please show us a video on how to wire that microwave outlet to the inverter please. I am clueless on that stuff but I can follow directions. So if you give us a step by step I hope I can pull it off. Thank you very much. Love your videos. Great job!!!
OMG!!! You can do anything. And everything!!! So impressed.
Hello Ellen, i'm glad you enjoyed the video. Thanks for watching!
Very creative. Haven’t seen that configuration before. Bravo.
It works great as well and I can't wait to try it out while I am out camping. Thanks for Watching!
@@Adventure-Mom It would be cool if you could have a little flip-up step to rest your feet on.
@@joanmcerlean7158 Great idea! Thanks for Watching!
Again another well thought out modification! 👌🏼
Thank you for the compliment and Thanks for Watching!
That's a great setup.
Great work! I was thinking to myself as you put the fridge back in "What a wonderful place to put an inline fuse!" Hahah! Seriously it was great, and I've got some good tips for my next project, which should be many times easier if I remove the fridge.
Hello Chris, I agree and found that very odd that the inline fuse was hidden behind the refrigerator. I am glad you found the video helpful and Thanks for watching!
Ya know, this ain't half bad, if I add a havis mount to the front seat as well i could add my drawing tablet and get 3 monitors all in one area.
brilliant.. never thought about that way! way to go~!
Thank you for the compliment and Thanks for Watching!
Wow, I now see, when she pulled out the Frig, that Thor does not install any insulation behind any finished cabinetry or appliances, "where you can not see", period. What a shame.
Unfortunately, the quality control at the factory is not what it should be. Thanks for Watching!
This is so great! I have been wondering where my office would fit in a class b but this never occurred to me, thanks for sharing!
Hello Ab, this works great for me as I can work remotely and spend extra time on the road. Thanks for Watching!
Great modification!
Hello Jason, Thank you for the comment. This is a great modification that I use quite often. Thanks for watching and supporting my channel!
It's perfect ! Perhaps adding some insulation behind the fridge ?
I have thought about it but I would also want to add insulation behind the bathroom as well, which is a project for another video. Thanks for Watching!
WOW - that looks amazing!!! Great job, and great video!
Thanks for the compliment and Thanks for watching!
Nice job as always
Hello JBG, Thank you so much for watching!
wow!
Thanks for Watching!
That is very nice!
Hello, I’m glad you liked it. Thank you so much for watching!
You are amazing!
Hello Mike, Thanks for Watching!
Nice build, I can see this concept being adopted by the manufacturers or dealers.
Thank you for the compliment. I do not understand why Thor did not at least add a Lagun table up front and used that same table in the back as well. Hopefully they will change with the times as more and more people are working remotely. Thanks for Watching!
You installed it better than they would at a dealership
Thanks for the compliment! I really think this was one of the best mods as it allows me 2 computer screens and allows me to work from anywhere. I may do another modification in which I connect the inverter to the outlet as well. Thanks for Watching!
Hello! Thank you for this amazing mod as I need a work space and want to leave my bed set up. What size “table top” did you use?
Great work!
I was curious how you were able to double that micro Rv style outlet.
I’ll keep following your travels and projects.
Gerry in Michigan
Gerry, Thanks for the compliment and thank you so much for following my channel. You could split the wires going to the outlet and tie into them with wire nuts and electrical tape, you could connect your wires to the same terminal poles inside the microwave outlet, and possibly even add an adaptor that converts the one outlet into 2 and then add an extension wire from that outlet. Of course, you need to consider the safest way, use the proper connection equipment, and use the proper gauge wire for the application. Thankfully, computer screens and chargers use very low power so I am not concerned with the current load on the circuit. Thanks for watching!
I just found your channel and I am so happy that I did! Great content, thank you so much!
Hello Kirsten, Welcome to my channel! And thank you for the compliment. Thanks for Watching!
Nicely done, thanks for sharing
Thanks for the compliment and Thanks for watching!
Ruby, I’m in the process of installing a lagun table in my Sanctuary. Do you remember what size screws you used? I did notice that you put a 2x4 between the Mount and wall. I don’t need power near the table. Any tips?
Thank you!
Dawn
Hi love the video, Idont see the outlet you used that mounts outside wall for your tv, can you post it? Thanks
Hello Tommy, I used a type of raceway outlet and just added one to the description. Here in a link:
amzn.to/3OaOLBV
Thanks for Watching!
Wow, nice mod. I've been wanting to ask you the pros and cons of a cassette toilet vs blank tank? What's your opinion?
I actually prefer the cassette toilet now that I have used one. For me, with a black tank I did not like connecting & disconnecting the sewer hose, nor did I like rinsing it out, or storing it. With the black tank I was always worried about putting toilet paper in it and was never sure it was fully cleaned out. Obviously, with a cassette there is no sewer line to connect / disconnect, clean, or store. I am no longer worried about toilet paper as it is easy to clean everything out. They are easy to pull-out and dump, however, the cassette can get heavy when close to full and you never want to overfill the cassette or you will have a messy situation. Thanks for watching!
@@Adventure-Mom thank you so much!
genial, muy inteligente
Me alegra que te guste. ¡Gracias por ver!
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍very good job 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks for Watching!
Hi there, do you have a video for the install of the lagun table up front and did you ever get the lagun table in the back set up? If so, do you have a video for that? I have the exact same van and would love specs on which lagun table mounts and brackets to order! Also, do you have information on how to rewire the microwave and potentially the monitor (another idea I will be stealing). Would also love some links to the mesh you used for your blanket, the mesh for the chairs in the back, and what you used for the collapsible under cabinet basket if you can share. I've gone through all your videos (I think) and these are the remaining questions I have.
Hello Christine, I am glad you are finding my videos useful. I do not have a video of the installation of the Lagun table however I would be glad to send you some pics showing how I installed the base plate. The Lagun table I used I purchased on Amazon and I have included a link in the description however if I were to do it again I would purchase an actual Lagun brand table and not the Amazon knock-off. I did not install a rear Lagun table as I did not need it. As for the wiring, I ran a wire from the TV outlet to the microwave outlet and then one to the monitor outlet. This can easily be done by removing the rear wall of the wardrobe, replacing the outlet with a better one, pass the wire from the outlet through to the cassette toilet area and then behind the refrigerator and up to the microwave outlet (I also replace the microwave outlet with a duel outlet). Send me an email and I'll send some pics. Thanks for Watching!
Wow, this is incredible! I don't see a link to the amazon version of that Lagun table. Can you post?
Are those upgraded seats for this sprinter? It's a great idea, but I thought you would do it as the pleasure way has theirs. Great job. I love it?
Hello Marie, The seats are the standard faux leather seats. I loved the seats in the Pleasure Way as they are much nicer. Thanks for Watching!
Pretty skimpy on the exterior insulation?
Yes, I agree. I was a bit shocked when I saw that only a few pockets has insulation. Thanks for watching!
What kind of refrigerator is that? And what is the brand? Thank you
The refrigerator is a NorCold. Thanks for Watching!
It doesn’t seem like thor did a good job insulating behind the fridge
Hello Kevin, No Thor did not do a good job with insulation anywhere. Thanks for watching!
You skipped over doing the electrical wiring,that'd would've been nice seeing. Nice mod and great job.
The electrical wiring was simple but very hard to video because it was such a small place. Thank you for the compliment and Thanks for Watching!
