Owl Ultimate Revel Part 2 Lithium System 

Oh, man! I want that Revel! That's exactly what I have been looking for to do our next cross-country adventure.

That seat looks so darned comfortable. .

Great video! Maybe do one of your van out off roaring and camping. Putting all your mods to the test. Love owl products. Hoping to buy some once I'm stateside.

That's an awesome looking van..way to go !!!!!.

Very informative video. Thank you! I like the German seat and yes it's the same theory for road cyclists. You want a firm minimalist seat for long bike rides not a fat cushy seat.

Liked the things you modified in your Revel. You’re right, wish it is an open space. Probably can get away without the shower, just the cassette toilet for basic needs. Nice off road modifications + bringing the weight down.

Beautiful power setup!

Fantastic van well done chap

We leave full in the van. Amazing video watching this video I really feel so sad about my van me and my wife hired someone to convert my 2019 sprinter from San Diego took all of our money not being happy the way they built my van and now we are suffering specially in our power and water supplies lots things to say about your video thank you sir

Owl should make there own vans... If i had to chose between revel and owl builds,,,, hands down owl...

Winnie Co listened and integrated a clean lithium system for the 2021s!!!

Yay you got your seats installed

I'm going to watch THIS again This is really,really,REALLY, .. AWESOME...you got my attention totally from beginning to end.thank you.

Just because of this video I'm thinking of buying a revel

Super clean 👌 👏

Hey, thanks for your really helpful videos.

Great video! Just beginning to look at vans, so I appreciate the walk-throughs you are doing!

Great content 🤙🏼💥

Fantastic Video, thank some much, its help me a lot because i got a personal proyect 💪👍😄

I’m looking forward to Aaron’s lithium set up in my 2020 when my AGMs die, especially since my batteries got down to 7v the other day and were unusable.

That was a good video.

Excellent ! Thanks.

Lithium is KING!!!

Your 100% on firmer seats broski.

Great video, Iam interested in what we are looking at as far as cost for same setup thanks in advance John

Grwat van Love the new front seats and the sink cover/cutting board. You may want to check what James from " The Fit Rv" channel did to the kitchen of his Winnebago Ekko. He swapped the location of the cooktop and the sink. The cooktop is a portable one and added a expandable/hidden counter top plus a drawer for the cooktop. Much more usable counter before the actual cooking. What about 3 Lithionic batteries? It will be cheaper and you will have 945 AH vs 630 AmpHr

Love it👍😎

Literally in love with this van! It just keeps getting better and better!! Also do you sell those baseball caps? Keep up the great videos!

how much a built like this costs?

Hi John…. Thanks again for the great video. Aaron’s Roamrig lithium battery pack system setup is really sweet! I don’t however you mentioned that the batteries are 48volts and that’s why the wiring gauges can be narrower also that this particular setup is designed for Revels 2020 and older. I don’t like the anchor points of the rear passenger seatbelts on all Revel models and unlike the Storyteller’s GrooveLounge seats it is not pull tested and besides Winnebago is using very thin plywood to frame out the seat bottoms….. not a good place to be in an accident! John can you please do a comparison between Aaron’s Roamrig and the Volta system?

Awesome awesome👍

Will you guys be having a Revel package that you can do in the Revel if we want to change out the battery or lifted Revel

Great one! btw I would like to know more information about the lift bed, where I can buy it? Thank you.

Think it's important to note that on the 2021 models they have an upgraded Lithium electrical system stock, and apparently the RoamRig guys are working on a new kit. Should be nice I'm sure.

John, how much did that upgrade cost? Yes the Revel off the lot is a great value, but when you start making the changes you've made to yours what would you estimate the new cost to be? I'm putting 400ah of lithium in my 2019 sprinter and its going to cost approx $10k and that's without all the nice monitoring panels, etc.

Awesome video so much info!!!! Thanks!! Did you change out the nerf bars? If so what ones are on your van now? Thanks!!!

How much do LED boards cost, is it possible for means of transport to buy from friends?

Hi there, Currently I have a 2023 Winnebago Revel, originally it came with 320A Li3 battery, can I purchase another same battery to connect it in parallel, and become 640A? Will it mess up the whole system or will cause any damage? Please let me know. Many thanks! Xiang

Hi John, Excellent work. Can you tell me where you purchased the driver's seat?

Hey John great video. I am getting an aux fuel and this will be the next project. Is your system the 10 k system?

Hi, can you please tell me if you added the wrapping on the plastics by the mbux or it came like that? It’s awesome and I’d like to do the same to my 2019. Thank you!

superb looking vehicle... i was wondering if you have international shipping from your website? & also the carbon surrounds on the dash... do you know where this comes from? i have a 2020 316 currently on it way to me in Australia :)

The only thing I dont like about lithium is the fact that they have to be stored inside the cabin where the space is already limited (to protect from the extreme cold) while with AGM they are stored outside under the car.

Hello John

Nice van - What kind of elbow rest/pad is that on the driver side door?

Does the RoamRig system still utilize the solar panels? If you mentioned it, sorry I didn't catch it. Also didn't catch it on his youtube video. Great system! Seems a lot more complete than other offerings I have seen...and a lot more $$ too.

Is that 144 or 170 Really looks the business love the bumper

Hey I noticed the little armrest pad on the door panel you installed. We’ve been looking for a solution like that. Which kind did you get and would you recommended it?

I imagine the wiring Winnebago uses is substantially less on the 2021 model now that there are lithium batteries inside. Correct?

Where does the arm bolster on the drivers door come from?

Awesome vid! Maybe when we pick up our 2021 Revel we can do a collab!

I have a 170 wheelbase rwd. Can it still be a overlanding vehicle with proper tires.

###. WHOA, THERE, THAT IS ABSOLUTELY HANDY. OH BOY...WOW., I DON'T BELIEVE THIS..IF I DIDN'T SEE IT. I WOULDN'T HAVE BELIEVED IT. ... ## READY MADE 🏠 HOUSE /HOME..WHAT'S THE PRICE.!!??.. PLEASE!?.

Hey John. I have been looking at the Revel but not real impressed with the "off the line" quality of build -vs- price. So, I am looking at buying a Sprinter and converting it myself. I would entertain working with you on a build and def on using your products. Have you guys considered doing conversion builds or partnering with somebody that does? Nice work on this rig BTW. Very Cool.

Can this lithium package be added to the 2022 Revel to extend the power..? Whats the price range?

Sounds like Jawa from Star Wars

Is that enough power to run an AC in 3digit temperature for few hours?

Can you add the link for that wireless switch panel?

Single man home worth £120k I could live easily in that can I get it in the UK ?

If I bought a sheet 4x4 sprinter, could you make me your ideal Revel RV?

So, I spend 175,000 for a factory revel and do the upgrades you have done on this video. What Is the ball park total ill be In for?

Where is the storage for cloths and food and cutlery?.

Can you tell me the model of that seat ? I drove mine from Texas where I bought my camper van ( 92 Ford Coach House ) to Cali. The seats are terrible and I’m in the market. Thank you

Top

Can you link the rack and hooks in the galley below the towel holder?

playing the time-lapse at .5 speed lol

You can recover probably $100.00 of your cost by selling the copper in that pile!

God loves you

Is that seat a traveler or touring seat?

I may have missed it in the video, but how do we get in touch with this Aaron from CT?

Could someone add everything like this van but on a 170??

What would the average price be to get lithium in my Revel?

10:49 can we see the home movies?😜...

Is the solar system still useful on the revel then?

If so in need of air conditioning why not just turn on the sprinter ac and have the car on for a few hours. Isn’t that what truckers do when on the road ?

👍

If you think your solar kicks but go look at Advanced Rv there solar in the 1000s

How much did it cost you to change the battery system?

When is Owl going to build their own version of the Revel? I call the Owl Rival. The Winnebago Revel is way overpriced for the low quality of workmanship, parts and performance. Many are completely upgrading the entire crappy electrical systems, replace the “ugly” low quality coach seat with one from Europe that has head rest 3 pt seat belts, add insulation and larger water tank and Froli system under bed mattress.

How the hell do you sleep 2 in that bed? 46" wide? when the doors are closed it is a narrow cave.

Wait so why did he remove the inverter? It was a pure sine wave inverter to give you AC power. Nothing wrong with it.

hi, may you can post some detail information about your remote light switch at 7:55? many thanks

You didn’t tell us the cost

What side steps are on your van? Love those

How much for the entire build?

Hey Jason from @themendotaranch / rotor recoil said to stop making Instagram commercials and get his tire rack/latter out to him. He’s been waiting for a hot minute.

Be ready to shell out over 100k for a van THATS A FUCKING HOUSE !!!

Do you even notice your kidneys missing? Lol

This looks great. You should get a job working for Winnebago and teach them how to make ultimate revels. I'd like to see an off road version of the longer sprinter so you can get a little more room inside for a bigger bed and maybe a little bit bigger bathroom for fatties like me

I call dibs on all the discarded old stock parts!! 😅

Having the lithium batteries inside also keeps some meth addict from stealing your $900 battery if you use the old AGM mounting box.

That’s a lot of money in copper. Strip that wire and trade that copper in for $$$

I hate small sinks like that one. Sinks should b large enough to fit a 22 lb. dog inside sink. Yes one needs a shower in van. Shower is more important than a cooking surface. U can eat cold veggies /fruits. But not go without a shower. Many places do not have a shower. And all showers in vans should be recirculating water.

500 pounds of weight removed.

Latest Revel van price $185,000. My estimate for a new lithium battery install is about $20,000. You’re at about $200,000 for basically a small van without a proper shower and toilet. This van is for a small segment of people that want to Boondock and have continuous power miles from any major highway. God bless you guys with all the money you pour to these vans. I have no idea what the resale of these vans will be in eight years. But somebody is going to get a great deal even if they have to install a new engine. That will be cheap compared to everything spent on this van. I’m looking at a Thor Tellaro KT It has a rear bathroom with a wet shower It’s one of the largest shower areas you could have a small van. If I purchase one it’ll probably be in Texas where they are about $15,000 less than they are in California. In Texas they are selling them for 79,000. Here in California they’re about 95,000.

The new 2021 REVEL had some significant changes, How does it compare to the Owl mods ? What does it still lack. A comparison would be great. 2021 REVEL video ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-xP_inv__IX0.html

i gets a bit squirrely.. =P

I love watching Camper van videos but this is definitely a mans video. The video camera is moving so much I’m getting sick.
