Installed a recessed plate on the side of the electrical cabinet. This allows the adjacent cabinet housing the refrigerator, to plug into the 12v socket with the wires hidden.

Cut, strip, crimp, heat. ⚡️Final wiring for connecting the battery to the fuse panel. Took a few photos to show what I’m using, mostly Ancor “marine-grade” stuff.

If you’re going to do your own wiring, I’d recommend using all duplex wire. The wire runs end up cleaner, you can skip the process of twisting and taping wires together, and you get the added safety of vibration protection. We didn’t reach our goal of finished lighting but, we did finish electrical rough in and testing.

Can’t say that I enjoy wiring, but I know we’ll enjoy the results.

What I love are slow mornings, waking up to the sunlight stroking my face, climbing out of bed to make coffee and cracking open the door to appreciate the morning view. A little walk or a dip to refresh my body and mind, and a moment of contemplation before we consult our maps to plan the day’s route ahead.
What I don’t love is being woken up at 7am by someone insistently honking their horn outside our van, stumbling groggily out of bed to be greeted by a police badge.
They ask us where we’re from, what we’re doing here, and we reply that we’re sleeping and is there a problem?
“No problem,” he says, and gets back in his police car and drives away. Well then why the hell wake us up?!
These are the stories of two very different mornings parked in the same camp spot. Setting up camp is a little like flipping a coin; you never know what the result will be, but you can be sure it will make a good story.
