D-rings for tie downs were installed in floor. Not a lot of room with ATV in it. Bought a batch of led light inserts off Ebay and installed a set into exisiting interior light. I am hoping it will give more light and perhaps draw less power. Yes, this build is progressing at a snails pace...

I plan to follow the simple wiring as shown elsewhere on this site for the 120v stuff and will use the Duracell Powerpack 600 for the 12 volt stuff (at least that is the plan.) I have the 5000btu window unit but am reluctant to cut a hole for it and am looking at alternatives. I've got a 10watt folding solar charger that I am hoping will offset some of the 12 volt drain on the powerpack but it may not be enough for that. Progress is slow but it IS progress.

got any plans as to what you want to accomplish with this unit.

slide outs, LED's, removable bed and furniture, murphy bed, windows, cabinets???

Currently it will have a porta pot, a blow up queen size mattress when ATV is not in it. I added the LED conversion to the interior light that was already in it. I am going to add a 12 volt fan. The trailer will be basically used to sleep in but all other things will be done outside, unless of course, it rains... IF I get a permit, I will park it at Green Swamp WMA during hunting season and stay a few days (ATV not allowed). Being in Florida, it gets hot/muggy so the AC may become an absolute. Cooking, hanging out will be done in a screen room that will be stowed in trailer along with Coleman two burner stove and a folding cleaning table that has a sink and hooks to a hose bib. I am trashing around ideas about hanging a tarp to cover trailer and create shade when there is none. OK, so the plan is probably half baked but it IS a plan!

That's why there is plan B.

that pointy nose up front is screaming for some storage- shelves, hooks for bows, fishing rods, etc. - maybe even a potable water tankwith a 12 volt on demand pump. I like that the windows are already done too. nice trailer to start with. insulation will make it much nicer year round- closed cell pink foam from lowes, et.

Got some cabinets more or less built, potty room has flooring that was left over from someplace else. Still need trim on ceiling and slapped down (loose) carpet from Lowes, indoor/outdoor variety that was 6 X 8. It's been hard to get much done when it has rained everyday. Side wall has cargo net that I expect to be most useful. Pointy nose isn't all that pointy but it is going to get something done up there.
