I liked your electrical diagram, very sim to what I plan. Your air plan scares the crap outta me. Nitrogen direct to regulator and hose reel. No connections after hose real. SCUBA or SCBA tank direct to own regulator and hose reel, no other connections after. Any connection of 3000+psi to tank is a cause for concern. You will never mess with the high pressure regulators, no worries there. A good friend of yours will do it as a favor to you and not bother telling you about it. Like when the high pressure tank is almost empty and they need to fill a tire.
20 gal tank exploding will leave a mark. It will not buff out.
Just my opinion.

should have been more clear. scuba has a built in regulator in the first stage, I run this for portable air. I can also just connect it to the existing air line in the trailer to fill up the tank. https://imgur.com/a/lGBtf
Installed my "Coleman Mach 8 Plus - 15,000 BTU" AC today. Much lighter and lower profile. Slight upgrade from the previous 13k BTU unit.
While I was on the roof I took some additional measurements for the solar. The original plan was to machine adapter plates and drill through the side of the trailer. I think the new plan is going to be mounting directly through the roof/ceiling frame and sealing it off.
Swapped out all the fluorescent fixtures for LEDs. Much better light output and color. Install was straight forward, except for the part where the original lights came crashing down I went with the Hyperikon 4k tubes. Good light output and color. Also hoping these will draw less power when I'm running off the battery bank.
Rivnuts failed and tire rack fell on my car. Good time to upgrade from a 4' -> 6' rack. Now I can fit 10 wheels. Drilled through the studs and mounted through the trailer skin. I don't think it's going anywhere this time.

Any damage to your car? My past experience with rivnuts is they work good in aluminium but only with lighter duty stuff...shame to find out the hard way with everything falling on your car.

Luckily it was just the Miata. I was more pissed about damage to the trailer than to the car. There's a chance I installed some of the rivnuts wrong, I learned the rivnuts have spec for the material thickness. The ones that ripped out looked to have not fully expanded. Either way, drilling was easy and that **** isn't going anywhere!
2) L-track on ceiling running along the side of the trailer, up front near the overhang, and in the back near the ramp. Added D-rings to hang shirts/suits/etc
