convertor?

Where did you buy the all in one convertor/AC/DC panel? I'm starting on the electrical rewiring and wow what a headache it is giving me!

wiring

I hear you....I ran my wires several time before coming up with a good plan. Tough part was not exactly knowing where I was putting everything. I drilled out a lot of holes and used a lot of grommets. I ended up with 4 AC circuits and half a dozen DC circuits. AC circuits....Curbside outlets, Streetside outlets...microwave and Air Conditioning. big problem Im having is with the 1.5 inch shallow boxes. Can get a normal outlet in them with 12/2 romex. Especially if their daizy chained.

Anybody have insight on Refrigerators? Im thinking under counter AC/DC. No hole in the side and only 3amp draw. Down side is small size at 3.1cuft. Curious if anybody has had success with these refrigerators.

54 cruiser

I'm on the road at the moment will post Picts next week.
Just received the Isotherm 130 AC/DC fridge. Looks nice. We'll see how it works out.
Need to tackle the shower/pan /head when I get home. Also run gas lines. Not sure on the best pipe/tubing to use. Any suggestions?
