Campervan van Maximo

Welcome to my van! It drives great, has air conditioning and heating and USB for charging while driving. It has radio but I usually carry a good bluetooth speaker to listen to music while driving. The air and heating are in the cab (which is separate from the back) but it has a window that separates the cab from the living compartment that can be opened and an air motor that circulates the air to the back if you want to cool or heat the passenger compartment while driving (I don’t really use it)

The cabin has a very comfortable 130cm bed that fits two people well and up to three people tightly together. Up to 1,8m tall it fits perfect then it becomes a little bit more uncomfortable. The bed can be transformed into a table for up to 6 people. If you prefer to eat or sit outside, I also have two chairs and an outdoor table.

The kitchen is with a gas camping case, which is very convenient. You can cook inside or on an outdoor hinged table attached to the furniture that is installed in a second. It has a sink with 25L of clean and 25L of grey water. It is convenient to save water as much as possible because otherwise, by washing dishes and washing hands and teeth, in two or three days at most it is used up. Using hydro-alcoholic gel saves water.

For the Water situation. I include a hose with adapters for refilling the water tank. The Potti (chemical toilet) is very convenient to use and it takes 5 days to empty it (or a little longer). On the outside there are two 18L jerry cans that are very good to always have water to drink and also to take a shower outside.

As for electricity, the cabin has both white lights, and another LED strip adjustable in intensity and color with remote control to have a more pleasant color during the night. It also has a refrigerator, which cools quite well but makes quite a lot of noise so it should be turned off at night, also because it consumes a lot.

The 100 amp battery together with the solar panel gives a good performance, especially when moving the van every one or two days as it also charges with the alternator. However, if you keep the fridge on all day, after two or three days at the most it will start to discharge.

To solve this, you can find a charging point (electric cars, campsites, etc), in which to charge the external battery to current or simply be a day without turning on the fridge (you put some ice) to go charging the battery well with the solar panel and alternator. In the living compartment there are USB sockets for charging as well as 12V plug points. For an extra I include a 220V converter in case you need to use a normal plug.

The van is quite tall but you can’t stand upright unless you are very short. That’s why I also included a small chair inside that takes up nothing and is very comfortable for washing up or sitting inside out of the bed. The trunks have plenty of storage space. I include shims that are very good to level the van and sleep straight.

I use the van a lot and have taken care of it to make it a home so please take care of it a lot ❤️

See you soon!
