We're wiring in our LED lights to our campervan with 2-way switches and dimmers! We've had the lights in the ceiling of our van for a little while but now it's time to wire them in and get some dimmable LED lighting inside! 💡

We thought we would wire in some 2-way switches so we can control the kitchen and the bedroom set of 4 lights independently of each other, which will be a nice luxury to have 🙂

👉👉 If you're doing something like this, don't forget to insulate all the connectors before putting the lights up in the ceiling (and fuse appropriately for your own lights). At the end we added a thick layer of insulation tape around all the connectors. It was getting late and we needed the lights in for the next day, so we didn't capture any film of that part! If we were doing it again, we would probably actually just use the wago connectors for the ceiling lights too, to keep it simple.

We're really happy with the campervan lights we ended up using, they give a nice warm white glow and made the whole van feel a lot more homely as soon as we switched them on...

Thanks for watching! Any comments or questions? Let us know below!
