    How To Testing solar panels

    When getting my LiFePO4 batteries last fall I asked about testing my solar panels (Solar Energy Systems Indiana).

    A couple of solar questions

    I was poking around on the roof of the Dutch Star today and noticed a single solar panel mounted near the rear of the coach on top of the master bath roof section.

    Solar Generator

    I’m curious if anyone knows of a solar generator capable of powering a AC unit. Ours won’t run off of a standard household circuit (rather, it trips the breaker after a minute or so). If that’s not an option, is overkill better for the power needs? Since we work remote, being able to power a...

    Solar Charge Controller not recognizing solar panel

    I bought a 2021 Coachmen Sportscoach. I believe Jaboni set up the solar system (100W s. panel on the roof and charge controller in the basement near the batteries).

    LightShip 4 Now Starting Customer Evaluation
