  • Peter Holcombe talks you through the upgrade of his 2021 Winnebago Revel power system. This video shows all the features of the latest RoamRig Power system upgrade for the Winnebago Revel. This takes the stock 260AH Li-ion power system and makes it incredibly over the top at 650AH. Allowing all-night air-conditioning for the first time. This system opens the door for adventure van travel with new luxuries. Peter Holcombe takes you through the results of his two-month real-world test of this system.

    We just purchased the 2022 Winnebago Revel and the batteries 👎 not enough power for the A/C and cook, and we love and camp 90% of the time in the Southern USA. Thanks for sharing your your upgrade we are just starting to check around on the best solution. Safe Travels.

      I’m still enjoying mine and will add the 5th battery soon. I’m finding it liberating to use my AC more and more as spring progresses. Thanks for watching!

    AWESOME video Peter, I am currently in the market for a Revel and found a used 2021 and I’m looking at living in it for at least a year and power is my biggest worry I know roamrig and their systems but you’ve given me a piece of mind for the “newer” 2021/2022 Revel power system from Roamrig and I think it might be the perfect addition for when I eventually do get a Revel so I won’t be worried and the pup and I can have some comfort, especially because I live in Arizona.
    Thank you for your in-depth breakdown of this system, I really appreciate that you did this. SUBBED!!! 🤘🏼😎🤘🏼

      That's great! The RoamRig system is working awesome for us. The improved alternator charges so fast! I'm getting ready to add the 5 the better too and that is going to be so nice.

    I get the added batteries and Roamrig set up, it’s great. I drive a lot, but I did some figuring and felt $1200 for a Honda gen was a better idea. I have a second home in AZ and it has worked well for those situations where I need to have AC while spending time in AZ. Additionally I like the space under the bench seat for a few tools. I switched my bed control out to a button early on.

      That’s great. There are certainly many ways to solve the same problem. Thanks for watching.

    Would you PLEASE give a rough number for the cost of what you've done so far? Please and thank you! I'm buying a 2023 Revel and this is the first upgrade I'm going to make and in my opinion, it's the most important by far.

    • @Famagogo
      @Famagogo  Рік тому

      Oh gosh, That's a number I don't think I want to know. Don't feel like you MUST make any changes. I always recommend people get out and spend a few months living from their vans. Only then will you know what really needs to be tweaked for your lifestyle. The Revel is capable of most anything in its stock form but some modifications can help tune it to your specific needs. I'd never trade the cost of a mod for time traveling. That's what it's all about.

    Mmmmm I don’t think so . Battleborn batteries are the best. Also where are the battery warmers and switch that came with the revel???

    • @Famagogo
      @Famagogo  2 роки тому +1

      No need for the warmers or switches with the Roamrig setup. Thanks for watching!

    Hey Peter - Great video. Do you have any information or link to the storage set up you have on the driver's side rear door for your van?

    • @Famagogo
      @Famagogo  11 місяців тому

      Hi, Yes, I sure do. It's called the Doorganizer by Canyon Adventure Vans here is a link. canyonadventurevans.com/product/van-door-organizer/ It's been a great addition. I still use the stock bungee pocket underneath this and can access out with the velcro. So it's just a lot of bonus storage.

    Hi there,
    Currently I have a 2023 Winnebago Revel, originally it came with 320A Li3 battery, can I purchase another same battery to connect it in parallel, and become 640A? Will it mess up the whole system or will cause any damage? Please let me know.
    Many thanks!

      Possibly, reach out to RoamRig. They have some options for you and can help.
