On an 85* day it would reach over 110* inside with the doors closed. I installed 2-14" roof vents that dropped it down to 100*. I then installed 2-7" radiator fans (40.00 from EBAY) in the floor to suck cool air in from the bottom of the trailer forcing hot air out the roof vents. It now stays only a few * above outside temp. I installed an Interstate deep cycle marine battery, alarm system, a 100W solar panel (I bought on EBAY for $159.00), I installed a rack system that you can walk past the 1 side as it is easier to load bigger planes without having to go around the front to grab it while someone holds it from the rear. I also used 2" upholstery foam for the planes to sit on and absorb bouncing. I also installed 4- 30" 12V LED interior lights that take little to no power to run. My panel will keep up with running 2 fans all day, full time alarm system and a 500W power inverter and lights at night. I also gave it a little wrap job!!
Wow, that's a nice looking trailer. Nice looking jets too.
