A full Van to Campervan conversion in under 15 minutes! I have made a timelapse video of the conversion of my van into a campervan, in reality this took almost year from start to being fully completed. My campervan is Gas Free, meaning I do not have gas for cooking or heating, and has been designed to be lightweight for exploring in the wilderness which includes providing me with all the power, food & water storage and comforts to live off grid.

Cracking job John 👍

I love these types of videos, and you did not disappoint ! Great job. Could I ask you to consider taking the nudge bar off the front though? Yeah, it looks cool. But the implications aren't that much better than a full bull bar. I wish you all the best on your travels.

The lights are mounted to the bar and this is the main reason it's fitted, where I go I need the lights and therefore the nudge bar too.

In 40°C heat I found the 2 maxxfans were great at keeping me cool enough to feel comfortable and they use 1% of the power a/c uses.

John love the time lapse, very useful in terms of the sequence of build. I’ll follow it when I build mine! I currently have a Ducato built by previous owner, which suits me at this stage of my journey. My question is,: I have a solar panel on the van which works ok? But, I don’t know its capacity, is there any simple way of determining its capacity I.e. 100w/ 200 w etc? Any help would be appreciated.

@GadgetJohn 6 ай бұрын

You’d need to look at the unit for its output as there’s no other way of measuring it.

@garymiller916 6 ай бұрын

Thanks for that, Would there be a label or I’d on it somewhere?

@travellingtaylors8352 6 ай бұрын

I wasn’t following you both until recently so missed out on your builds first time round. You make it look so simple! Do you have one of Mandy’s build? Did you have to configure differently with her working more from the van or is it identical?

@GadgetJohn 6 ай бұрын

Mandy documented her van build on her yoututbe channel, so you can see how she designed and built everything 👍🏻

I have a question we are buying a vw partly converted transporter shuttle. It’s got a rock n roll bed and as far as we’re a where it’s been lined etc etc it comes with 3 x solar panels that need to be fitted and 2 Leisure batteries and water tank. We pick it up on sun we’ve just looked at taxing it but it’s coming up at over £600 for 12 months I was just wondering if you guys have re-registered your van to keep costs like tax and insurance down and how did you go about it please

@GadgetJohn 6 ай бұрын

Our vans are £285 a year for road tax, so I’ve no idea why yours is so high. Ours are still registered as vans.

@VWvanlife 6 ай бұрын

Nice conversation. How long did it take you to complete?

@GadgetJohn 6 ай бұрын

It took roughly 3 months of constant working on the van, but I used it a lot during the build to get a real feel for the conversion at each stage, so overall it was around 5 months.

Nice one John. The time lapse view shows in quick time what can be achieved, but it belies the amount of sheer graft you put into the build that your regular followers bear witness to. All in all, a video worth doing. Cheers. 👋
