Mobile Lab Zone of Geekery

Mobile Lab Zone of Geekery

I've posted about the mobile lab a few times, built into a 24x8 Wells Cargo from 2005. This is the zone of geekery... I brought the Bionode over from the development lab via folding aluminum ramp and a winch with wireless remote. Nothing broke! That black platform under it is a shock isolation platform mounted on wire rope isolators (with little loading ramps).

This provides my compute tools in one package including about 24 TB of storage, local AI for a few projects, video production, home assistant, communications, etc. It has its own battery backup, but the trailer's main power system is right next to it, including about 5 kwh of lithium. The machine is tucked between the folded ramp and a pelican case, and above it is the mini split.

Moving aft, there's a small machine shop, adjustable bed under fold-down workbench, galley, electronics lab, ham radio, 3D printer, waterworks, piano, inventory storage, tools, etc. The roof is 2.6 kW of solar panels. (I have not gotten an all-up weight yet, but have started offloading excess inventory.)
