Its definitely worth a
Its definitely worth a thought just for space saving etc. However, my concern would be energy consumption; if on an electric hook up then I guess it’s not a major issue but if you had to rely on leisure batteries etc when in more remote locations what sort of power consumption would you be looking at?

Thanks for the message
Thanks for the message reading what you write makes a lot more sense and maximising space while minimising weight will be the best option. I will at times need to remove the unit from the van for work purposes etc.

I will definitely look at the plywood options with L-brackets, The unit itself doesn’t seem to be overly complicated to build and the quickest build method is definitely the way forward for me.

Another question:

What is the best way of semi-permanently securing the unit to the van? I am planning to cut the side and back boards etc to the shape of the van etc for a closer fit but not sure how to secure it to the van. On wheeler dealers (Sky TV) I seen them use a rail system that can be installed and then the units can click in to this? Do you know where to buy them or what they are called?

Thanks for the message.
