Pulled an old battery box from a van in the paddock. I had wired up 3 light locations back when I installed the white pine ceiling boards so next up was hooking the lights up to a battery.

I found the tilting switched conversion van lights for $5 each. I kept the original internally switched ceiling light fixture from the cargo box and reinstalled it. Its practically an antique. Looks like one anyway.

The black framed tilt lights are double fed. A switch turns them on as is, but when the light is off you can reach up and tilt one or both lenses to get them to light. Standard conversion van items.

Enough room in the battery box to tuck in a battery tender. Neat and tidy.

The wooden box attached to it has a combination propane and carbon monoxide detector mounted in it. Beside that unit is a combo of a marine cigarette lighter outlet and a back lit double USB setup.

The battery box is screwed to the floor over the wheel well. It will be moved aft as there is limited space to get around the side of the bed when it's down flat and I don't like the idea of toe stubbing the battery box after a late night trip to the latrine.

Mounted 2 small clothing hooks near the side door. Cheap and cheerful. Click image for larger version
