4 Smart Home Design Mistakes I Won’t Make Again!

I built a fully automated off-grid smart van… and I made some design decisions I wouldn’t make again. After living in Smarty Van 1.0 for over a year and a half, I’ve learned what actually matters in a mobile smart home — and what quietly creates long-term friction. In this episode, I’m breaking down the biggest system-level mistakes I made and the design philosophy guiding Smarty Van 2.0. This isn’t about aesthetics. It’s about architecture. If you’re building a smart van, RV, off-grid tiny home, or even a traditional smart home, the choices you make early on — wiring strategy, hardware selection, power budgeting, serviceability — will determine whether your system feels effortless… or exhausting. And at the end, I’ll show how I’m using a 6-axis robot and VFX tools to create the light-writing sequences in this video. If you’re into van life tech, Home Assistant, ESPHome, off-grid solar, RV electrical systems, or smart home automation — welcome. 🎗️ SUPPORT THE CHANNEL Become a member for special perks:    / @smartyvan   Buy Me A Coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/smartyvan Amazon Store: https://www.amazon.com/shop/smartyvan 📇 CONNECT Smarty Van Discord server:   / discord     / mikegoubeaux   https://smartyvan.com Sponsorship & Collaboration: sponsor@smartyvan.com 🛠️ SMARTY VAN DESIGN & INSTALL SERVICE Don't feel like you're up for a DIY Smarty Van?
