This is so easy to follow. I am surprised so few people have viewed this considering how well the camera is managed. Thank you Gus family.
Will definitely be watching this many more times in the near future!.. although slightly scared of doing the setup.Thanks for all your great videos guys! Keep up the good work
Trust me, if we can do it anyone can! I really hope this video ends up being helpful when you start!
Great job guys! Y’all make everything look so easy and simple! I’m over here mind blown! 🤯
Hhaha we may make it look like that but in reality, we might just be pulling our hair out ahha!
Start making it look so easy everybody's going to do it LOL great job guys
Hhaha Idk about that, did you see our diagram! It still doesn't look easy and we made it haha
In video 27 of our electrical system... looks like so much work
Boy you can say that again!
Paco, i can't urge you enough to loan or rent the correct crimping tool for those terminals. Water leaks on a bad joint. Electricity gets hot. At those amps that is a huge fire risk if not done properly, believe me i do it for a living.
i totally agree
i also would make the box al lot stronger
don't want it to brake loos in a accident
an accident can produce powers around 4 or 5G
that's 5 times the weight what it normaly is
We are getting this suggestion from a lot of people so we will be re doing them! Thank you so much for your concern and information!
Thanks for all your great videos! How did you know you needed four gauge wires to connect your batteries? We have our batteries, but we’re having a hard time figuring out what wires to connect them with.
That was the calculated size for the amount of current going through them!
@@GustheStruggleBus thanks!
Well done guys you've done well nice and neat John
Thank you so much! We are trying to keep it organized!
Do a pull test on those wires! Put the ends in the vise and give them a hard pull. My educated guess would be that those crimps are not enough. I have the crimper you need and would let you use it. We can meet up somewhere on 2920 or 249.
We made sure to do a pull test and the wires did not come loose but we have gotten this suggestion a lot so we will probably re do them! Thank you so much!
Are you guys worried about hydrogen gas emitted while charging? We put ours inside now our reading they produce gas when charging
These are safe to put inside
Very good i frum egypt i lik
Wow that is awesome! Thank you so much for watching!
Whoa... That looks like a challenge! But, because Paco has the diagram, it's going to make putting it all together easier! Who did you consult with to get this all planned out? We might need to talk to y'all about all this (because it just seems like a ton of lines on a piece of paper! LOL) You're video was super awesome today! Love the editing and solid info! We love following y'all!
Keep it up because you're going places!!
- Brian + Erin
HAHA you know you gotta have a good diagram! We messaged a lot of skoolie builds about there systems and watched a crap ton of videos haha. The explorist website helped a tremendous amount as well!! We are here to help as much as we can!
How did you decided on the 300 amp fuse coming off the positive battery terminal? I am having trouble figuring that out.
I think that is what was recommended by their website
same voltage is not necessary
once you connect them together they level out
That makes sense, thank you!
they actually make crimpers you can put intoo youre vice to crimp these connectors

That is awesome thank you!
