    FINALLY got the SMEV stove installed! We actually received it a few months ago after waiting quite a long time, but then I got busy... Today, I had some free time, so...on with the pictures.

    Marc over at XPCamper helped me out with that. Awesome guy. Had a series of problems with Dometic trying to get this stove, but he kept on it for me, and after 6 or 8 months, it finally showed up at my doorstep.

    Hooray, reviving an old thread again.

    I think I finally managed to get unlazy and fix all the broken picture links, so there's that.

    Also, after living out of the camper for a bit over a year now, I'm happy to report things have been working out great. However, we're ready for some more remodeling!

    Not like before though. We are pretty tired of the Dometic fridge, it is too large for what we need and is a power hog. We also need more fresh water capacity, as well as more black water capacity....and more storage space is always welcome. This will all have to fit in or near where the old fridge will be coming out of.

    Since we have a cassette toilet, the only way to increase that is with another cassette, so I'm thinking that an external access hatch that leads to a dedicated cassette cubby would be nice.

    So we want a small, efficient fridge, like the National Luna, ARB, Engle, or something of the sort. I've done a little searching, but I'm torn between the cheap fridges with mixed reviews and the expensive ones, but either way, it's a good chunk of change.

    Not sure what to do about the fresh water capacity yet. The possibilities include extra water containers to dump into the water fill when running low, installing a larger main tank, installing a secondary tank, etc. Just debating the best solution.

    Nice access door for the battery (along with everything else in the build). Did you buy it pre-made or make it yourself?

    Picked up that door and the driver side external access door from Rob at Coyote RV/Phoenix Popup. Called him with a size, and a week or so later he had it for me, can't remember the cost, but it wasn't expensive.

    Sadly, this camper is now up for sale in the for sale section of these forums.
