i use Kingspan at work, it is ok but it would leave to many cold spotsshanky887614 wrote: put kingapan in, that stuff is awsome.
technically it wont make it warmer but it will take it longer toto heat up and cooldown naturally inside (using aircon/heater will be more effective)

Re: My Mountain Biking Camper Caddy build
i was thinking more of the rolls like what they put on ducting than the foam sheets
kingspan is just the brand and they sell many different types on insulation

Re: My Mountain Biking Camper Caddy build

Nice work I'm doing the same thing I'm looking at the battery's at the moment did you just put it behind the driver seat was it easy to get a cable from main battery to there?

Re: My Mountain Biking Camper Caddy build
No put it behind the passengers seat as it's closer to the starter battery and on that side there is a hole to feed the cable through

Re: My Mountain Biking Camper Caddy build
Any plans to build bed or is it purely a day van? Do you have a link to the insulation you used? I've used eco wool before but it's a bugger for holding moisture.

Re: My Mountain Biking Camper Caddy build
nice build bud.
just picked up my new van and have been thinking about using the same bike mounting system.
I thave found these which looks a cheaper alternative. ( 20mm are avalible as well)
