    Attention adventure seekers! Do you see yourself sipping on an ice-cold blended margarita, cooking fajitas, and feeling the fresh cool air on your face as you look out over the ocean? If you can, this is your kit! The Tiny Watts 5.0 is our most popular van power center. It's truly the perfect amount of power for a weekend getaway, an extended trip, or full-time living for the mindful power user!

    This power center will accept up to 1000W of solar power! In the Tiny Watts 5.0 van power kit you'll find a fully integrated Victron system with the main components being: a 3000W Victron inverter/charger, Victron Smart BMS 24V 5.12kWh lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) battery bank (400ah equivalent). Victron 360W DC to DC alternator charger or you can select the option to have a second alternator to recharge completely in just a few hours of driving.

    The Tiny Watts 5.0 solar power kit can run a 120V air conditioner for ~2-4 hours or a 12/24V DC air conditioner (recommended) for 6-8 hours. If you want to keep your furry friends cool for a few hours and are ok running one high-powered kitchen appliance at a time then this is the perfect fit for you. If you want to have a longer run time for an air conditioner for overnight use (12-16 hours) then head over to our Tiny Watts 10 power kit for a level up!

  • Upgrade Your Tiny Watts 5.0

    Add A Secondary Alternator (3000W)

    For faster charging, you have the option to add a 24V secondary alternator, which allows you to recharge your battery bank within 2.5-3 hours of driving from empty!

    Please note to add the secondary alternator, the 'add second alternator' option must be selected. The second alternator price is an additional $3,500.00.

  • MAKE SURE TO DOUBLE-CHECK THE DIMENSIONS FOR YOUR TYPE OF VAN

    We can build for the driver's side or passenger's side of your van.

    Mercedes Sprinter: 60” L x 16” W x 33.5” H

    Ford Transit: 60" L x 14.5" W x 33.5" H

    Dodge Promaster Standard: 60" L x 16" W x 37.5" H

    We lived in our van for 4 years and the Tiny Watts 5.0 was a luxury, cooking on an induction cooktop, running our electric kettle for coffee and throwing pizzas in our toaster oven. We didn't think much about power as it was the perfect amount for our everyday power needs and for most people it truly is. You just have to be ok making coffee first and then cooking breakfast as the 3000W inverter has 2400W continuous output, but hey, we’re camping in a van! If you want to run more than one 1800W appliance at a time, for example dual induction cooktop and a toaster oven then check out our Tiny Watts 10 kit. Take the comforts of home wherever you go and enjoy yourself off the grid with the Tiny Watts 5.0 power system!
