I Built A Luxury Stealth Camper Out Of A Porta Potty

Overview

Todd Champion turns two used porta-potties into a “stealth camper” by bolting them together, upgrading the interior, and creating a covert setup he can access without drawing attention.

Stealth camper build & access method

• The porta-potty doors can’t be opened normally, so:
  • A cousin (John) cut off the front rail.
  • Bolts were welded onto the base.
  • Todd removes the rail by unscrewing the bolts to access the interior.
• For stealth/availability:
  • He stores the removed rail on the trailer behind the porta-potties.
  • He parks and stays in a different “show/tour” spot first, then moves to his final overnight spot.

Interior “luxury stealth” features (tour highlights)

• Real brick on the walls.
• Hardwood-look flooring (styled to appear like hardwood, but not real hardwood).
• A mix of materials/finishes, including different linoleum on one side.
• Portable AC setup:
  • Hose system for heat exhaust and air intake.
  • The AC runs via a power station to cool the small space.
• Custom toilet-seat setup:
  • Todd made/installed a toilet seat.
  • A mirror is added to the toilet-seat area for a personalized “camp bathroom” feel.
• Original porta-pottie doors retained for authenticity.
• Locks added to secure the doors from inside.
• Decor/comfort:
  • A plant for ambience.
  • A “live, laugh, love” rug.
  • A fan mounted like a ceiling fan that also provides light.
  • A chair inside used as a makeshift table for food.

On-site stealth & security routine

• He uses:
  • A live camera feed outside to check whether approaching people are “cops” (if unsure, he keeps the door closed).
  • A second external action camera with live view on his phone.
• Distraction/cover tactic:
  • He wraps/disguises the action camera in his kids’ shorts to make it less noticeable.
• Timing/behavior around traffic:
  • He tries to work only when the parking lot seems clearer.
  • He checks the feed before opening the door.

Power & cooling (sponsored gear included)

• He plugs the portable AC into a Blue Eddy power station to run it overnight.
• He claims the Blue Eddy Elite 300 can handle high-demand appliances (notably a portable AC).
• He highlights charging convenience via a bundle including:
  • Blue Eddy Elite 300 power station
  • Blue Eddy Charger 2 (smart charging using alternator + solar)

Sleeping setup

• Bed: a HeliBox bed (new to him).
• Before assembling:
  • He removes/relocates items to make room because the bed takes most usable space.
  • He forgot an inflatable mat and had to retrieve it from the truck.
• Bed installation notes:
  • Components are labeled (A, B, C, D) to help assembly.
  • Wooden slats use grippy/sticky material so the inflatable mat doesn’t slip.
• Practical comfort:
  • The trailer/camper is on a slant and has no leveling jacks, so he expects movement and possibly sleeping leaning toward a wall.
• Later testing:
  • He tests whether the bed can fit over the AC/power setup.

Food & bathroom improvisation

• Food:
  • He orders Taco Bell via DoorDash.
  • He avoids cooking inside so he doesn’t heat the space.
  • He instructs delivery in a way meant to help the driver find him (including a red Dodge Ram, the porta-potties, and “knock on the door”).
• Bathroom solution:
  • He briefly leaves the camper to use the bowling alley restroom.
  • Later, he improvises peeing inside using a squirt bottle.
  • He mentions deterrents if someone gets close—“fart spray” as a defensive gag/repellent idea.
• Cleanup/food handling:
  • He buys cheap paper towels from Walmart and uses them under wrappers as a temporary surface.
  • He eats in the chair area while monitoring the parking lot via camera.

Interactions & delivery moment

• The DoorDash driver (Jose) approaches while Todd is inside.
  • Todd warns/labels it as a porta-potty “stealth camp” setup.
  • The driver checks the interior and agrees it’s hard to see lights from outside.
• Todd briefly worries that opening the door could give away his position, but he checks the outdoor camera and believes he’s okay.

Nighttime + morning wrap-up

• He monitors the lot until the bowling alley closes for the night.
• After assembling the bed:
  • He eats/drinks a specialty soda and reads comments.
• Morning:
  • He wakes a little after 7 a.m. (the bowling alley opens at noon).
• Packing:
  • He packs quickly by leaving the bed and AC in place to reduce work.
  • He removes the rest as needed and leaves.

Notable “mystery” moment

• When leaving, he finds a “muffin man” item:
  • A wrapped muffin set in the camper area with a candle labeled “3.”
• He’s confused about whether it was left for him (possibly by the DoorDash driver or a cat) and checks his time-lapse for clues.
