    The VHB tabe works very well, but one caveat I'll add is to make sure surfaces are thoroughly cleaned with a solvent and especially to be cautious if the vehicle has been repainted, as a strong bond to the paint doesn't do any good if the the paint isn't properly bonded.
    It's harder to paint the roof of a van and harder to see it once it's done, so this is where painters are more likely to be less diligent about prep work.

    Thank you for these videos, especially this one. I was contemplating wiring in a solar electric system with all the separate components, but now I realize I can do it in a much easier way with a power supply. Your channel has been extremely helpful as I get ready to convert my van here in Thailand. Cheers from the other side of the world.

    Colton, Love your videos! At 9:11 in your video it appears that the bracket/tape/roof interface closest to your junction box is minimal due to the contour of the roof. Can these brackets slide along the panels in order to maximize bracket/tape/roof interface? Or, is the tape so good that just a bit of contact suffices? Thank you again!!!

      Yes the yeti 1500x will go up to 2000 watts constant. I'm assuming you are talking about a single burner portable unit. They use around 1800 watts on high.

    My goalzero yeti setup caught on fire in my truck causing damage. I'd think again if you're going to install their Chinese made goods in your vehicles. I've been emailing them for weeks and they will not reply to me. I expected better from what I thought was the top company in this industry.
