How do you plan on getting power out there? Hire someone, or diy?

shorthair:
They usually have plug-ins. When I was a kid, we used to sit up on weekend nights in my friends camper trailer eating Dorritos, drinking Coke, chewin Red Man and filling up spitoons, radio on and Vectrex ablazin.

Wow.  This could be the classic project of the decade.   An arcade on wheels.   I doesn't matter if it goes anywhere it would just be neat.   Good luck on your project.  Looking forward to seeing it.

I've been out there tearing the walls down and they come down fairly easy. I pretty much have them all down already minus the ones that surround the bathroom. Next I have to dismantle the kitchen, whoever the previous tenant was they left food in the cabinets and the fridge. And seeing how the power has been off in this thing for 2 months when I opened the door on said fridge my breakfast came back. I think I'm going to duct tape the thing up and just throw it away as a whole.

I hope you don't live near Davis Island.  Your arcade will be a house boat arcade room after the next big storm.

Nope I live in the Pinellas park area. I'm going to have to hire an electrician and the power company to come hook me up on a separate line. I'd diy it but it's alot of electricity and I don't want to try and climb the pole or tap into my house. But I'm waiting till I get the thing gutted and new receptacles put in and in place before I get power hooked up. Plus I have to get a new panel because the one that's in there won't hold all that stuff plus a bigger A/C unit. It would get hella hot in there with the small A/C unit it has now (aka wall unit). It use to have a central but that has long been taken out and I want to run new ducts because theres no way of telling whats in the old ones. Plus I want to move them around more towards the center of the trailer. This project is going to be slow...meaning it's expensive just to get it going. While I was browsing around on the internet I found people building offices and houses out of used storage containers....I should have went that route. But this will be just as fun :)
