The main problem I saw with that one was that the guy is a surfer and it is
his only wheels.  I sure wouldn�t be parking that at any remote beach
parking lot.  Talk about massive thief bait?!?!?  BTW did the math on the
added batteries that they put in to power the system while parked and he
will get about 8 hours of operation with those two heavy deep cycles.  They
didn�t show it but from the cabling I believe they put in one of the
aftermarket heavy alternators as well.

Planned insanity is best.
Remember that sanity is optional.
