Build Your Power System

Build Your Power System – Configure Your Own VanXcel Energy Setup

Take control of your off-grid electrical system with Build Your Power System — a flexible, modular approach to designing your ideal power setup for any type of campervan, mobile workspace, or adventure vehicle.

Instead of choosing a pre-defined package like TheSMALL or TheBIG, this option lets you combine exactly the components you need — from converters and powerstations to batteries, cables, solar panels and more.

Why Choose Build Your Power System?

Whether you’re converting a compact van or a large Sprinter-style vehicle, every build is unique. Some prefer a traditional converter setup, others go for an all-in-one powerstation. Some travel light — others need full-time off-grid autonomy.

This system gives you the freedom to build your power the way you need it.

• Choose between a 5-in-1 Converter (1000W or 1500W) or a VanXcel Powerstation (500W or 1000W)
• Select your ideal battery capacity: 200Ah or 300Ah LiFePO4
