.....DOC WEAVER TELLS IT LIKE IT IS!....that is what he did and that is what he ended up with.....insulate and glue everything....no exceptions. If you have access to Spray Urethane Foam use that instead of sheets....will kill the wind issue and keep even more heat/cool inside the Box....that is the real issue of comfort in a TruckConversion.....LED's if possible or RV type florescent for lights.....electric heaters and A/C unites should be 120 or 220 vac....converters are a PIA and large battery banks are very expensive to buy and will let you down just when you need it....solar is iffy at best....geofkaye
