Singer JTIDS S250 Shelter Project

I will measure one of mine when I get home from work in about 4 hours. Unless someone else does it before hand.

Thank you very much!

I gutted mine and rewired it to 120v, and I converted one end of the original power cord to a 3 prong. There was no ECU. It did have the lower 19" rack, and I added the top rack on the table. I also installed a bunk on the right side. I still need to make a Cushion for it. I installed a folding seat out of a Chrysler mini van for the "Command Chair" lol. Got it new from a company that does conversions. Mounted to a base I got out of a 90's era Ford van. Perfect height. If you decide to pull any of the mast clamps of the side and want to part with one, please let me know. I have a broken one.

The wiring in mine was so neatly done I didn't want to modify it much. However, I noticed all the breakers are 400 Hz, so it's all been coming out. I'll keep the panels and switches (I love switches), add at least one 15 amp 120vac input for accessories, with a 2nd dedicated 15a for a 5000 btu mini ac unit.

The fans and lights are 24vdc so 2 solar panels on the roof and 2 12v non lead batteries tucked inside the lower box will power all my basics.



After cleaning it and sitting at the command table with the door closed I imagined a setup similar to yours, with monitors of my trail cams.

If I pull a mast clamp I'll let you know for sure.

The micro switch is to turn off the lights, when the door is opened. At night, you could see it from miles away, in a blackout situation. So as soon as you open it a tad, out goes the lights. The switch next to it, allows you to bypass the micro switch, and keep the lights on all the time.

Dock Rocker, The width is 75 inches. The same size as a twin mattress. Hope this is the right number you were looking for.

I'm glad you mentioned that, I'll post a close up on the door switches, as I'd like to rewire them.



Here it is rotated and close up, I'm not certain but looks as though it would work as an AC or DC switch.

I think I have it sorted out using your measurements. Somehow I got the drawings for an AN/MSQ-85. Apparently they are a tad smaller. Thank you for the assist.

Roger. That switch can take any voltage you hook it up with. In some of our van, we had 120 and 24vdc lighting. And of course blackout systems. My shop set #4 Engineer Expando Van had also a blue light system, that turned off the normal lighting when the door opened, and turned on 24 VDC blue lights, so you can see at least a little.

Great, you are helping to solve the mystery. 24vdc blue led is what I'll put in. Will work well since shelter has a dedicated DC source.
