Truck campers are the tightest builds we do. Everything has to fit in a small space, weigh as little as possible, and survive the worst vibration of any rig type. We build systems for Four Wheel Campers, Alaskan Campers, Bigfoot, Lance, and custom flat-bed overlanding platforms.

What makes truck camper electrical different
- Weight is a real constraint — a 200 Ah LiFePO4 beats the equivalent AGM by about 80 pounds, which matters for a quarter-ton truck payload
- Vibration is brutal — all connections get strain relief, all wiring runs get supported, all fuses are physically restrained
- Space is tight — every wire run is measured, every component placement is evaluated for heat dissipation

A typical FWC or slide-in system
- 200 Ah LiFePO4 (slim-line format if it fits under the dinette)
- 200–400 W solar on a shell roof rack (or bed-cap)
- 2000 W inverter (bare essential — most truck camper owners skip AC)
- 30 A DC-DC charger from the truck alternator
- MPPT charge controller (Victron 75/15 or 100/30)
- Minimal monitoring — SmartShunt + Bluetooth is enough; no full Cerbo unless requested
