      Hi Dave, thanks for all the great videos, both helpful and entertaining, if you could just advise about the plug and play 240v hookup, I noticed it didn’t have a dedicated earth you need to fit to the van so presumably it earths through the hookup point on a campsite? Not heard of this before? Also does this unit have a built in MCB & RCD like other consumer units you can buy that you would earth directly to the van? Cheers Mark

      Hi Joanie.
      I haven't came across them sold separately as these were purchased as part of the kit.
      I'm sure if you reach out to the company directly, they may be able to inform you more on the sale of individual parts.
      Many thanks

    Adhesive closed cell foam is a vapor barrier 🤷‍♂️ taping is unnecessary. Edges are already sealed by adhesive.
    Compressing loft insulation eliminates its R value significantly.
