Jesse came over to install Solar Panels on my Shipping Container build
มุมมอง 4804 หลายเดือนก่อน
I had bought 3 panels that were 200w each for a previous project, but they remained largely unused. We challenged ourselves to mount the panels without having to go to the store, and only used what I had on hand. We used old cut off channel strut pieces, weathered 2x4s and mismatched screws. But its solid. My Shipping Container needed off grid power since my pole barn isn't wired up (yet). So i...

What about that insulation that is form fitting for containers?
What about it? Shits expensive and Lowe’s is right down the road
creating a mess............
It nice to see your project coming along, thanks for posting the video.
What do you do for plumbing?
Brother this ain’t a house. There’s no plumbing yet. And when there is it’ll be on the outside. ;)
I hear ya…just trying to get ideas.
I just got a used 40foot, H.Q. myself. I love seeing different ideas like this. Thank you for posting!
Super rad!
Just got two High Cubes myself, I have similar ideas on how to insulate them. I’m thinking that I’ll recess the battens into the corrugations, then run the insulation continuously. Then I’ll cover the insulation with 1/2 plywood.
Thank you Doane!
lol @ 5:53 love it
What thickness is the foam board?
3/4” R5 for the walls and I think 2” for the floor. But I’d skip the foam in the floors if I did it again. Unless I lived up north where it got real cold.
@@doanegarage thank you
wow man, i was dead set on getting a 221MSL and like several posts below, i am going to really think about it. I even talked with an owner at a park recently, they had NO issues so i feel like there is some hope. I am convinced that all campers are built on a Friday at 4:45 pm.
Probably the biggest issue is that this is a 2023. A guy who runs an RV place close to me told me to stay away from any RV made in 2023 due to the industry recovering from Covid then.
@commonsense2469 my biggest issue is it’s a 22
I was in Madison! Bad storm for sure.
Little Lee got smacked. I just went to Tractor Supply in Madison. Looked like a war zone Hope everyone’s ok
@@doanegarage This was surely a big one! Surprising given that it's almost 50 miles inland. Definitely not cat 4 damage (I know what THAT looks like) but it definitely wasn't a little hurricane either. Saw a few structures totally destroyed and collapsed. And yeah I drove thru Lee too, looked pretty bad there as well.
How do the added vents work if you seal the walls with insulation and plywood?
The idea is that it vents the cavity between the steel and the insulation so hopefully no mold or moisture. Because they are sealed. I almost always keep the container doors open to run in and out. But the workshop side won’t be capped at the top like the office side. So will vent as normal It’s not airtight between the office and workshop. Hope that makes sense
Why didn’t you find all of these deficits when you did your initial walk-through before you signed the documents and before you gave them earnest money.! Were all of those deficits there when you did your initial walk-through before signing the documents? I have owned over 30 personal use RVs. I have never had an issue other than surplus found screws and odds and ends. Nothing catastrophic nothing major certainly nothing to make a video out of Again what other things did you find through your initial walk-through before you signed the documents and before you gave them earnest money I’m curious is all right now I own a 40 foot quad slide toy hauler and a significantly shorter camper for weekend trips no issues

drill a hole in the channel from the outside and let it drain outside.
Big 🧠 move
currently doing this job by myself too, I'm drenched in sweat within 10 minutes. its tough work
Remember to take breaks!
On the kobalt shelves, You can take one of the ends off in the middle and connect the shelves rails to the other leg. And if you remove the bottom racks you can extend the shelves another bay.
Thats an idea! I'm thinking of moving a rack out to have more room, or get the smaller Kobalt, but thatd free up a little extra sqft on the cheap thanks
All the libby's wanted all those DEI hires... well this is the result of democrazy in action.
its better you found this water now as compared to 3 years down the line when it rusted through and soaked your finished home. blessing in disguise
Just wish I didn’t find it so close to my dry wood 🤦♂️
This is a great channel!
Thanks for watching
look up what they do in Zambia on the mines they put a roof over the container about a foot over the container makes it nice and cool
I’ll do that thanks
Yep,a roof with an airspace over the top makes a big difference. Eaves also help a lot, you’d be surprised how much shade on the walls even a one foot eave will provide especially in the summer during the middle of the day.
My ideal setup is a lean-to with a roof of solar panels I can park under. Maybe one day!
I just happened on this. I bought my Ember 191 about a month prior to this video and the dealership couldnt fix this simple blown fuse, exactly as the video shows. My first camping trip was without a working fridge. I then replaced this fuse and the fridge worked over several trips before it blew again. As far as I can tell, the fuse blows when the battery gets lower - when volts go down, amps go up. I also installed a 13.8 voltage regulator on the 12 volt fridge circuit as I found the unit to totally shut off during momentary voltage drops, possibly when the water pump kicks on.
Thanks for the tip. Happy travels
awesome!
Glad you think so!
do you have a file i could get to replicate this? i just took my console out and was thinking the same thing for a relocation. Cool Idea!
Not yet. I had to pause development to move and am setting up a new workshop. This summer I hope to get it refined. Then set up a storefront to sell files and other physical products
Alright man all good. Good luck with the new shop!
Haven't seen the whole thing but those straps are looking a bit... Small. Get straps that are rated for 1000lbs work load or better.
Thanks, dad
new DOG?!?!
We're fostering! just for a few more weeks. Toby doesn't like dogs.
Cool dude! I want to build my own too, and i dont even have a crash pad
nice job! I got it for 106 on sale at REI. shipping cost is 160 . uber is 35. subway is $3. going to pick it up in the city next week. Great wood work job!
thanks for watching! Id love to buy good wood instead of scrap. it was a little flimsy. I just moved and want to make a new one
yoo, randomly remembered to check on your videos to see how your project was going and this update is awesome! Subbed to make sure i dont miss future updates.
Really appreciate it!
You inspire me so much 💙 Congrats on the move and hope you enjoy all the projects 🎉

i also broke the middle bolt. i spent all that time trying to get the right torque spec (55) and it broke anyway. annoying. thanks for the help
No problem! Not the only one I’ve snapped but a very important one ☝️
Thank you for helping me, I had just broken a valve cover bolt and I had a gut feeling that you could just extract it with a vise grip. Thank you for confirming my suspicions
Glad I could help

Ok

When the inverter goes into sleep mode just go turn the main battery disconnect off then back on, it will wake up... Well, mine does on the 191MDB.
Thank you. I'll try that next time.
Maybe they will get it right in 10 years. It’s ok to be mad, I sure would be for the price paid.
awesome video bud! your skillz have lvled up!
I like to think so. The tools have gotten better and it’s gotten easier. Lots to come. Thanks for watching dude
Pretty sure leaks in an Ember is a design feature.
Max Leak package am i right
When looking for a camper, Ember was on our list. After watching many videos of this brand, we moved on.
wish i coulda watched a couple more videos instead of making one..
Looks like a covid build. Everything that was built during that time is junk. Half way put together buy who ever wanted a job.
Wow! Total junk!
