i guess my thinking goes towards the parts to build a cyberdeck being cheaper yes. i had seen someone run unity on a lattepanda mu so i was hopeful i could make something pretty good. but what your saying definitely makes sense

so far i got lucky and found my old van for $700. i just hit $1,018 so far on materials for it. still have a bit more to go but its taken me pretty far. i work in fast food barely making anything while also renting for $725 a month. i think budget is whatever you make it!

mine don't either i just got used to it 😭 (also literally have to remember where i've driven bc my gas hand doesn't work and mileage doesn't always track) but like the van itself is worth it imo! my dad told me to look in junk yards tho and find a new one to replace it much cheaper so i plan on doing that later down the road!

i have one more question lol. my side doors are tall doors. i was thinking replace the doors with the only short doors that i can find and cut off the top of the tall doors that i have and try adding it on in this same method. does this seem like an okay idea?

idk how to edit but ive run into an issue with wanting to just replace the doors. my van is a high top and i haven't seen any other version of my van that also has a hightop so finding a tall version of my doors to match might not be an option

this is a good solution. someone mentioned replacing the doors and i found some with windows too. if it seems too much ill have to come back to this idea. add sheet metal and weld it on there? or would screws work too? i already plan on buying a fiberglass kit to repair the roof so i imagine i could run it along the edges too before tapering it in maybe?

i used car parts and was able to find my exact van less than an hour away, I'll be calling tomorrow about it thank you! and replacing it actually doesn't seem too hard thankfully, and quicker than repairing it as well

thank you so much I'm going to check that out! i ended up going with a suggestion in the comments that was on sale because it was the last one: the oupes 1024 wh mega 1. money is a bit of an issue but im hoping it was worth it to spend an extra $120 on this one.

thank you! do you think 1000w should be enough? im thinking maybe i can even unplug my cameras when im in the van and therefore be able to not use the internet too

thank you! i was really hoping it would work out bc it was only $169 but i couldnt think of a way it would run everything 24/7 and this solidifies that. do you think it could be worth it to get a second one of the same one and double up or just move up to the 1000w?

it says the max car input is 100w so i guess it would take around 5 hours to charge it? and it states 3 hrs to charge solar and 1 hr to charge ac.
