Custom electrical design and installation

For Vans, RV's and other things with wheels:

Whether you have a van or other project that never had electrical installed and we're starting from scratch, or upgrading your brand new travel trailer with Lithium and solar... and everything in between, I've got you covered.

Most RV's are delivered with a very basic and marginally functional electrical system.  There's usually not enough battery capacity to run basic items for more than a day.  OEM builders often use flooded lead acid batteries with very limited capacity.  I will design an upgraded system to tie into the existing system and provide power from the batteries, as if you're plugged into shore power.  It's possible to run everything you wish, including air conditioning units and other high power items.  When upgrading, there are a multitude of options, but don't worry, I'll help you understand what's possible and design a system that meets your needs.

Everyone has their own way of using their Adventure Vehicle and building the right electrical system to support that  requires both art and engineering.  

I start the process with an electrical survey, to identify the items that require power, what type of power, how much they'll be used and how we're going to keep the system charged up.  We'll examine the vehicle and make decisions about where to put all the components and batteries.  We'll talk about upgrades to the OEM system and how the new system will interface with what's already there.  All this information will be used to develop a system design that meets the needs of the particular application and customer.  Other things, like budget and schedule, must also be considered.  Often times we'll design a system that can be expanded in stages, allowing each customer to use their new system under real world conditions before they decide if investing in more battery and charging capacity is the right move.  

For Adventure Vehicles that float instead of roll:

Brett is an ABYC Certified Electrical Technician ready to help get your vessel in top cruising shape.  A vessel project flow is very similar to that of a land based vehicle build, adding in a few extra steps if shore power is part of the project.   From full design and installation of the latest  Lithium powered Victron system to troubleshooting or upgrading your existing system, I'm here to help.
