Awesome setup! We just bought ours from someone. I have a question about the shore power. What sort of wire soni need to charge the batteries using shore power. I have never used the campground power. Do I need some sort of adapter like 30amp to 20amp or just normal wire extension?
So normally I just use a good quality extension cord. I had a 40 foot cord that unusually would reach most outlets where ever we stayed. Hope this was helpful, thanks for watching.
Nice trailer. We picked up ours at the Overland West Expo, and love it. We have had it out a handful of times and each time we come back with more ideas on how to personalize it. Enjoy it. BTW I'm going to post a video on switching out the shower hose, it makes it much better.
Thanks for watching and thank you for your upcoming video on the shower. After a few trips, I am changing out the head, going to try and keep the hose. I don't like the way it dribbles when you turn the shower head valve off. And Im hoping to get more of the a spray than the current way it "sprays".
Prices for trailers can vary depending on how they are equipped. This particular model was a demo so I did not pay full retail price for the trailer. I know you probably meant well, but I am not in the habit of discussing how I spend my money over the internet.

How long did it take to put the tent away in real time? May I suggest do some real world set ups and time yourself on setting up and packing up. Also, what about getting up in the middle of the night when you have to go to the bathroom?
The real world set-up time is about 10-15minutes. Pack up time is about 20-25. In this video, I actually missed a step which cost me another 10 minutes. Generally, I don't get up in the middle of the night, but if I do, I use the ladder to get down and go to the tree line.
Full set-up is faster than takedown. Set-up is about 20 minutes, takedown about 35 minutes depending how picky you are about defining whats considered "takedown". At the end of this video, I made a mistake on the takedown and it took a bit longer. The heat didn't help either. As to going to the bathroom, you get up, go down the ladder and go.

Nice set up. I like the way everything is close to hand, especially in the kitchen area.

Pulled by a coach so I would delete the tent and instead have a fold out solar aray
That is a great idea! Thanks for watching!
You want to put a bund,u,top tent on top.they are made in Africa.
