I converted this 7x14 enclosed cargo trailer into a camper. The build took me about four months. The conversion cost a total of $5000, roughly. I saved a lot of money by using construction lumber. Primarily super cheap 1x4s. The trailer has a 100AH lithium battery and 100W solar panel. All lights, fans, electric cooler, and running water can be run off the battery. In theory, I never have to charge the battery because the solar panel. I also have a 2000W inverter and induction cook top. For heating and cooling I'm using a portable AC unit with a heat pump.
