Full-Time Van Life on a Budget: Off-Grid Electrical System for Under £999

Welcome back to my van build series! Last year, I started this project, and now I’m excited to share a huge milestone: installing my off-grid electrical system.

I’ve managed to power my van for full-time living, all for just £955.75! This setup will provide everything I need to live comfortably on the road, which I am planning on doing very soon!

This video takes you through the entire process, from wiring to installation. It’s been a wild journey so far, and I’m now closer than ever to living in my van full-time! Let me know what you think in the comments—I’m really happy with how this turned out.

🔧 About This Video: In this episode, I’m installing an off-grid electrical system in my Ford Transit camper. It’s a budget-friendly setup costing me under £999, and I’m so pleased with the final result. This power system will allow me to run 12V and 240V appliances while living off the grid.
