A step-by-step guide for how to convert a van!

This conversion of a H2L3 Citroen Relay (same as Dodge Promaster) is probably the best thing I have ever created. It combines 7 years of experience of living vanlife and almost 20 years of making things.

This layout features:
- King-size bed
- Large kitchen
- Internal Shower & Toilet
- Tabled seating for four
- Decent storage

The van features:
- Fully off-grid capable electrical system
- 590W solar, 400AmpHr Lithium battery (https://www.amperetime.com/)
- Battery-to-Battery charging
- Refillable LPG tank
- 35l Compressor Fridge
- Air heater (Gas Powered)
- Water heater (shower only)
- 140l water storage (dual pump system)

Battery (sponsor promotion):
The Lithium battery was provided by AmpereTime: https://www.amperetime.com/
One year later (the van was converted in summer 2022) this battery has performed perfectly.
