Complete Guide to EcoFlow Power Kit Setup in Your Van

 Converting your van into a fully off-grid adventure rig? Installing the EcoFlow Power Kit is one of the smartest ways to power your life on the road. At Skyliner Gear, we specialize in helping vanlifers get the most from their gear—so here’s our complete guide to EcoFlow Power Kit Installation in your van.

Why Choose an EcoFlow Power Kit?

The EcoFlow Power Kit is a modular, all-in-one power solution designed specifically for RVs, camper vans, and tiny homes. It includes a power hub, batteries, and optional solar input—all built to work seamlessly together with minimal wiring and intuitive controls.

Key benefits:

  • Plug-and-play setup

  • Stackable lithium batteries (2kWh to 15kWh capacity)

  • Remote monitoring via the EcoFlow app

  • Clean design with minimal cabling

What You’ll Need

Before starting your EcoFlow Power Kit setup, make sure you have:

  • EcoFlow Power Hub

  • EcoFlow LFP Batteries (2kWh, 5kWh, or 15kWh)

  • Distribution Panel

  • Smart AC/DC cables

  • Solar panels (optional but recommended)

  • Mounting brackets or cabinet enclosure

If you're building a custom van cabinet to house your kit, ensure there's sufficient airflow and access to ports.

Step-by-Step EcoFlow Power Kit Installation

Step 1: Plan Your Cabinet Layout
Measure the space where you want to install the cabinet. EcoFlow components are modular, but you’ll need to leave space for cable routing, ventilation, and service access.

Step 2: Secure the Power Hub and Batteries
Mount the Power Hub securely to a panel or shelf inside the cabinet. Stack your EcoFlow LFP batteries nearby using the provided brackets or straps.

Step 3: Connect Components
Use the included smart cables to connect:

  • Power Hub to the LFP batteries

  • Solar panels (if used) to the Power Hub

  • AC/DC outputs to the distribution panel

Follow the included wiring diagram or consult an RV electrician if needed.

Step 4: Configure the System
Once all connections are secure, power on the system. Open the EcoFlow app to configure power settings, monitor usage, and set charging priorities.

Step 5: Test Everything
Plug in your appliances and test the system under load. Check that AC, DC, and solar functions are working as expected.

Tips for a Clean Cabinet Installation

  • Use cable management clips and sleeves for a tidy look

  • Include an access panel for future upgrades or service

  • Ventilation is crucial—add vent holes or a fan if needed

  • Label all wires for quick troubleshooting on the road

Thinking of an Adventure Van Build? Here's What I Learned the Hard Way

 If you're dreaming about building an adventure van and taking life on the road, you're not alone — I was in the same place a year ago. I wanted a rig that could handle backcountry dirt roads, haul my bikes, keep me warm at night, and still have space to cook a real meal. Here's what I’ve learned from actually doing it — and a few tips I wish I knew from the start. 1. Start With How You Travel Before buying gear or gutting a van, ask yourself: What does adventure mean to me? Off-roading in the Rockies? Remote surf trips? Park-hopping with your dog? Your travel style should shape everything — layout, gear storage, battery size, water tanks, etc. 2. Overbuild Your Power, Always Adventure means unpredictability. Weather changes, remote locations, no shore power — and that’s the point. That’s why I now swear by a solid electrical system. Solar + lithium + a reliable inverter is the holy trinity. I came across Skyliner Gear late in my build, and their Power Kit Cabinet wo...

Secure Storage & Mounting Solutions for Van Power Systems – Must-Read Guide for Vanlifers!

  Anyone who's spent time in a van knows that in small spaces, design and layout matter tremendously. While many builders focus on battery capacity and solar panel specs, how you mount your power system is equally important. A well-designed power cabinet isn't just about protecting expensive components; it makes your van safer, more functional, and more reliable on the road. Strategic Weight Placement The positioning of heavy components like batteries significantly impacts how your van handles on the road. Placing them over or near the wheel wells offers several advantages, such as improved stability when navigating winding mountain roads, reduced vulnerability to crosswinds on highways, and better traction in challenging conditions like snow or mud. A lower center of gravity reduces rollover risk, while a more balanced weight distribution leads to predictable braking.
