im looking into doing the same. main reason altho im a plumber and not scared of propane/lpg id rather not have to deal with building a sealed/vented to outside box to cart the tank which is a waste of space. i have 240ah lithium battery. and two 320w house panels on the roof. should be enough to run induction. i have a 200w solar blanket i can also put out if needed. i like the idea also of not having to buy gas. this way with the fridge and all solar. all i need is food and water and i can stay remote until one of those runs out. no need for ice or gas. all solar powered.
Awesome video! I was camping in my minivan with my puppy and had a faulty propane tank. I am sad to say there was a explosion it blew out four windows, did other frame dame and i was severely burnt. I was blessed my Blue Heeler Sue was ok (thank the Lord!) However propane is not the answer... I appreciate this video very, very much abd Solar truly is the way to go!
Thanks for posting this! Working on my build and planning to get the Yeti 3000 too, super helpful. When you say 2 lithium ion batteries in the description do you mean you also have these hooked up to the yeti? Curious on power consumption for the induction and yeti alone with no additional batteries, have you tried that? Thanks again!
Hello, I just subscribed. And I am considering buying a Goal Zero Yeti 3000X for my upcoming van build. I will also incorporate my current Goal Zero 1500X that I have in my current van. I'm buying a 2014 Ford E-350 Econoline van, but I am very concerned that the Yeti 3000X and the Yeti 1500X with 800 watts (only 560 actual watts) of solar will be enough to run an induction cooktop, a Zero Breeze 2300 btu Air Conditioner, a dehumidifier, 12 LED Puck lights, a MaxxAir Vent Fan, a DC water pump, along with charging a cell phone, laptop, a Dometic CFX 3-35 Fridge, and a second dorm sized small cub refrigerator, and Bluetooth speakers will be enough to keep all of the above running. Do you think this will be possible? Or should I buy a Yeti 6000X? Please give me your opinion May.
Cool vids! I am going the same route with the all in one power system, im curious to know what you did for lights and how you wired the fans? We will have 2 fans as well
We went with touch battery powered lights and purchased rechargeable batteries to charge off of the Yeti. With the fans we simply connected the two positive wires and the two negative wires and then attached those to a 12 volt cigarette lighter plug. So it's like parallel wiring with the panels but instead with two fans.
Is the stove still working out ok? Anything you would have done differently after trying it for a month and a half now? Thinking of something similar :)
@@maysadvantures8968 maybe add a battery to battery charger / split charge relay as well it will top liesure battery up while you drive on those miserable cloudy days
I am no electrician. But my back of the napkin math is. 12% of 280Ah Battery bank is 33.6 Ah. 33.6 Ah in 30 minutes = Roughly 1.12 Ah per 1 minute of cook time. So you should be able to predict that 1h of cook time = 112 Ah and so on.

This is awesome!!!! The transformation is awesome. And the interior is 👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾
Thank you! That means a lot. You know how long I've been waiting. Feel like I can finally breathe🙏
That's awesome - we've always been curious about how cooking works in a van!
This video was perfect I'm looking at doing an induction cook top but couldn't find any videos or much info of people running them off of a goal zero.
Great information! 30 minutes of cook time not bad. I thought it would drain much more battery power.
Right this thing surprised us as well. Were mostly amazed with how fast it heats up. It can boil a cup of water in less than 30 seconds!
very instructive in a short time
that's what youtube is meant for
lololove how your kitchen looks! Also, I’m a little jealous of your kitchen cook top 🤷♀️😻
Nice life bro...
Looks delicious!
so is dat de cooked food for de dog ?
Great video. What was cost of your cooking set up? How'd you decide to go with induction?
Thinking of the 6000x
Buen vídeo, enhorabuena, gracias.

You'll be better off with the 6000x

Is your stovetop plugged into the goal zero or wired to a fuse block?
Agm or lithium, what size battery?
Was this the countertop model? How did you get it to drop in?
Please. Launch. Battery. Based. Induction. Cooktop. With. Charger. Riffle.

Yes it still works great! We are thinking that maybe a 3rd solar panel would be worth investing in. A week of rain can take a toll on the battery bank

1.2 Ah per minute x 60 minutes = 72 Ah per hour.
How big is your battery bank in W hours amps × vot
3075Wh (10.95V, 280.8Ah)
Mmmm... miam miam
this guy a pro snowboarder or something? rich as fuck. lol.
12% of what? Your 200 watt panel has nothing to do with it...what is your total battery capacity?

Thank you! We just wanted to use clean energy whenever possible. The stove top costs $173. There's a link in the description for further details
