    Hello and thank you for taking a moment to read this. Just bought a 07 Safari Passage that has four solar panels installed along with a MPPT Charge Controller, but currently cannot find the inverter.

    Great solar information!

    Some of the reasons I wish I had more real-estate for solar was addressed in this video! But as comprehensive as this video is, it would serve anyone looking into solar to invest the time to watch it. Not much technical stuff here, so it's great for someone that doesn't want to delve into the...

    What is your backup power? Solar, wind. Generator, Earth Battery, Grid?

    MOD Upgraded Solar with floating solar array on Girard awning mounts

    I was finding that my 400W factory flexible solar panels that are mounted on the curved hump of the Newmar New Aire roof, just were not doing it for me in the winter. I would still have to go out and run the generator for about 3 hours every other weekend to keep the lithium batteries charged...

    Solar problems

    I've got a 330 watt solar system. Everything was working fine until a couple of days ago. I lost all power from the panels. I started wringing out the wiring and found no power. I Googled it and found that by resetting the controller it might cure the problem but no luck. Is there an in-line...

    Solar Panel Placement

    Still kicking around putting solar panels on top of the coach. Has anyone put a panel on the bathroom cathedral top? Is there a reason not to? A 425 watt qcell panel would fit very nicely. As far as I can see, about all panels in the 300 to 425 watt are similar in size. I just don't know if...

    LightShip 4 Now Starting Customer Evaluation

    I would think solar would be an ideal way to keep batteries topped off or charging while underway. I'm not sure if the LS roof is conducive to solar panels, even if the flexible type.

    Question Solar Charging System

    There may be an access panel in there secured by square head ( Robertson), remove the panel and it may be in that compartment. May be close to the MPPT controller for the solar or it may be on the interior wall adjacent to the solar prep port on the exterior wall.
