VIDEO DESCRIPTION:
David and Shelby are the young couple of Aimless Travels! They converted their 26 ft; 2002 Thomas Built bus Charlotte, into an incredible winter wonderland adventure mobile! David's background in construction allowed him to create an efficient space with all of the perks of home. The streamlined garage with all utilities in one spot, and the recirculating water concept in the bathroom make their skoolie cozy as they travel in winter. The epoxy kitchen counter hack brought the beauty into the bus without the cost! Powered with the DIY spirit David and Shelby created a life that allows them to continue on with their personal career goals, all while adventuring across the country for the last year. Thanks for the awesome tour of your tiny home, Aimless Travels!

With the amount of new power options out there, tiny home builders are getting clever. This couple used a Tesla battery to power their DIY tiny house on wheels!

@heyster3 3 года назад

Have you heard of people using Prius hybrid battery packs? They should be more plentiful than Tesla battery packs. Haven't found a van build using hybrid battery packs so hope you have better luck finding them.

Please let us know what battery management system (bms) you use for your Tesla battery pack? What would you suggest for a 48 volt system using two Tesla batteries modules?

Wow nice bus and the solar is impressive first Bus I've seen that can run AC all day with no problems with power drain. Beautiful bus very well done... ❤❤👍🏻👍🏻👏👏

I actually drive a school bus for work I would love to get a pusher bus ; the engine is in the back, to convert . It's amazing how much you can fit into a bus, make nice and call it your home.

@stephanieprice8247 3 года назад

Super intelligent and talented guy. Love all the storage you have and that bathroom is a definite thumbs up. Yours is one of the few buses I could actually see myself enjoying.

I love watching these videos. I didn't plan on having a deck, but wanted solar panels on top and watching this showed me a walkway between the panels. That would come in super handy for cleaning them, etc... Great ideas.

@user-vm5ud4xw6n 3 года назад

I liked the solar/battery setup. The oven corner might not get so hot if the oven wasn’t in that corner. If those are pieces on the wall next to and behind the stove are tin they may be holding the heat in the corner. Didn’t quite get the water setup for the bathroom. Have to look that up. Sounds interesting!

I really like the idea of the radiant heat. I don't like to have a forced air heater blowing on me at any time. I was spoiled by having heating as a child that the vents that wear at ceiling height. I wish all heating was that way or was radiant!!

@littlemisssunshine2931 3 года назад

First van that I've seen that uses a recirculating shower. That's what I want in my van but I didn't know if it was possible in a van, glad to find that it is. Seems like the only sensible option to me because otherwise you have to either carry loads of water or have very short showers; neither of which I'm keen on. Thanks for sharing.

Okaaay, NOW I'm even MORE interested. That heat and shower system. So...can you have a hot shower whenever you want? Cause that's been my deal breaker so far. I have pretty difficult hair that can't really go more than a day without some help from water!

@yingli8028 3 года назад

Hi, David. What's the name of the shower door from Lowe's? Please

@valeriebaxter2354 3 года назад

I assume there is a floor under the slatted shower floor, so does the underfloor get mouldy or dusty, can you lift out the slatted floor part to clean the underfloor?

@shandelebroyles1099 3 года назад

*Did you guys make the blinds or what??* *How do you heat? I know the floors are heated but pretty sure that won't heat the whole bus.* *What about your water system? How much of each and where is it located??*

@SouthernBelleSassy 3 года назад

I really need to know where the bus conversions park/live? But specifically, of course. No address needed. But where can you park to live? Most RV parks don't accept buses. Anyone have an answer?

@sarabeth3016 3 года назад

Most stay at public BLM land (Bureau of Land Management), state parks, national parks, etc. for stays longer than one or two nights. For one night stays, like when you're driving lonv distance and just need somewhere to stays until you reach your destination, most stay at rest areas, truck stops, or Wal-Mart/Cracker Barrel/etc. parking lots (these companies generally allow overnight RV parking, but it's always good to ask a specific location if it's okay).

You have done a terrific job putting together this mobile Tiny Home. Now, you can look forward to generating savings as you can live off the expensive grids. Take some entrepreneurial business classes towards an Associates Business degrees at a Community College. Most offer online 'hybrid in-person" and or self-paced with full academic credit. The Internet is forcing higher education to completely change. That upheaval is just starting. Education & work-life will be totally different by the end of the current decade. This Tiny Home will make it easy for both of you to get Associate Business or skilled trade degrees early in life & graduate with little or any debit. You would then be positioned to start a family with money in the bank. If you want you can add 4-year degrees at your own pace without the usual academic loans. I wish you all the best.
