I dealt with Jen, a couple years ago, when I was seriously considering a BunduKort. It was a 1/2 ton model which now is discontinued? She was great. They were very agreeable about alteration if at all possible. I ended up with a FWC Grandby Shell which is now about 80% built out.
One recommended purchase related to your new battery. A Victron 100/20 or 100/30 SmartSolar MPPT Charge Controller. IMO they are the best. What size depends on current needs but also your future needs. Your solar panels can vary but the controller can be the rock along with your battery. When is your Camper due? How are you handling your H2O supply?

I have 4 3 1/2 gallon water bricks which are very well made and a manageable weight for me when filled. I will get a couple more if I need them. I will also have gallon jugs for extra drinking water, amount based on location.

I got a Waterport shower from Costco for $130 . Not sure how I'll attach it but it did come with the receiver gear so I can put it on the truck or just carry it where it needs to be....like in the hot sun:)

I just ordered a Battle Born 100AH LifeP04. They had a Cyber Monday blemish sale yesterday. $799. Warranty the same, free shipping. Couldn't pass it up. 

 

I did post it here so maybe someone else had a chance at that awesome price.

 

Thanks for the links, I will add it to my stuff to research folder which is quite large....lol Been researching for a while:)

 

Looking at late April early May I think. They had several orders at Expo East. I really like the bed on that. Nice think memory foam over a storage area which gives me extra insulation:)

 

Powered roof which keeps me and my back very happy:)

 

Custom so I get it the way I think I want it...lol

 

20 years ago I would have bought a shell and built it up myself. Now I just wanna go places and take pictures:)

The WaterBrick looks interesting. Is the regular 2 pack, 2 x 1.75 gal, or 2 x 3.5 gal? Can they detach from one another?

[Happyjax]

2 x 3.5 gallon. They aren't attached they just will seat in as you stack. I filled one 3/4 and froze it and put it in my large cooler. It kept things very cold for 4 days though it was a test so wasn't using it much. Still had some ice in it though.....

 

I got a 4 pack with spigot from Sam's club last year. It seemed to be a good deal. I have 3 of them filled at all times and have had no issues except one leaky top. Emailed water brick and they sent me a couple replacement seals. Took care of the problem.

 

If I need more water I will not hesitate to pick a couple more of these up:) I like that they also make dry storage ones and even one for pets which comes with a bowl:)

Thanks for the info. 2 x 3.5 obviously = 7. My Camper H2O tank is 7. Perfect refill for me when I would have to hand fill. I might buy 2 more or maybe get the 2 x 1.75. I like that the spigot is removable, especially nice for travel. I carry a 2gal upright fixed spigot tank for outside camp H2O use. It leaks a bit in travel. It sits in a bucket, which I need anyway, but a leaky container is annoying.

its about time!!!

 

I have been very happy with the Zamp products and they are based out of Bend, OR.  I like keeping things local where I can.
