6 x 10 Cargo Trailer Conversion Project Completed

Postby GRH-camper17 » Thu Sep 10, 2020 11:35 am

A couple years ago I converted a cargo trailer into a combination mini-camper / utility trailer. After ~60 nights and a number of trips, I still modify some (and repair a few things and on occasion wish I had done something differently .... oh-well). I'm still able to open up most of the space to use as a utility/hauling trailer while still having a mini-camper. Online sources provided a lot of ideas and inspiration that contributed to my project.

My utility camper build included:
- Shower & sink
- External gray water tank or hookup (uses portable wheeled gray tank)
- On-demand water heater
- 2 burner stove
- Mini-refrigerator
- 15 gallon swappable fresh water tanks
- 12v water pump
- 12 v lighting
- 120v Connection and sockets
- Solar panels, battery, & charge controller
- Inverter can provide 120v AC from 12v deep-cycle battery
- City water connection
- Mini-wardrobe
- Split fold-down beds (1/2 used for bench seat)
- Fold down table
- External remote controlled air conditioner and heater
- Powered roof vent

Agree, very nice build! It makes want a smaller toy hauler.

How do you like the AquaKing water heater? Does the exhaust really get that hot?
