    Upgrading My Tiny Home Build Out (day 112 of 365)

    Day 112 is all about accountability and making things right. Today, I’m tackling a major mistake in Betty’s power system. While the current setup has served us well, I realized it was under-designed for the specific demands of our air conditioning unit—something I should have caught during the initial planning phase.In this video, I’m cleaning up the "rat’s nest" of wiring and installing a new control panel and smart pad. This upgrade not only streamlines our power management but also gives us Bluetooth control over the entire system. I'll walk you through the process of drilling pilot holes, checking wiring sizes, and interpreting the manual to ensure everything is grounded and fused correctly.It’s a hot day to be buried in the garage, but getting this system properly organized and efficient is a huge step toward making van life more sustainable for our family.In this video:Identifying why the original power system design was a "mistake"Unboxing and preparing the new control panelManaging complex 12V vs. 120V wiring and ground connectionsCleaning up the electrical "rat's nest" for a safer buildPlanning for future thermal management with heat sinks and fansThanks for following along with the build! If you've ever had to redo a major project in your own build, let me know in the comments how you handled it.#vanbuild #vanlife #electrical #diy #tinyhome #vlog Start on Day 1 if you are new here: https://youtu.be/_ydNTMUxuOA We're Frankie and Alex.
