    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...

    Lithium batteries solar charging

    looking at purchasing a 2021 as agile. Will the 330w solar panels keep the lithium batteries charged? Or will I need to be continually on shore power to charge? Thanks

    How To solar panel setup for flyer chase

    I take it that you want to add solar to your Intech Flyer Chase low profile camper. You should be able to mount a solar panel on the factory roof rack, pass the cable from the panel through a roof cable gland and install a solar charge controller to provide power to your battery. If you are...

    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...

    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...

    Lightship Power Systems: Power That Goes Farther Off Grid

    ...Systems. Systems because LightShip has several electrical systems: High Voltage System at 400 DC Volts, a 120/240 AC volt system, a 24 volt DC system, 48 volt DC system and a 1.8 kWh solar array controlled by three solar controllers than can charge both the 12 volt system and the 400 volt system.

    Run refrigerator on 12volt without engine running thx to new solar

    I recently purchased a 2012 Roadtrek 3500 and installed 200 watts of solar panels. My main reason for the solar is so I can run my Dometic RM 8501 refrigerator during sunny daylight hours without having to use propane. According to the manual the 12 volt option is only available when the...

    Power inverters

    Are the batteries Li? The Oasis came with a converter, battery charges when on grid, solar charges battery when off grid. Not sure what fridge or battery you have. My 12 volt fridge needed at least 150AH to handle cloudy days or parked under trees. Rather than add solar, my best solution was...

    Power inverters

    It’s an intech terra oasis rover with 2 200w solar panels. Apparently a standard feature on these trailers. We have a generator to be able to run the ac if we’re not in a full hookup situation but it seems the batteries are reliant on the solar and the tow vehicle

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

    ...this winter just going to plant it on a friends land for a few months and see how it goes. However, it is not near his house or near any power. Solar is great when it is sunny out. Thought about wind, but he says good luck. Generator is taking a beating running all the time. So what the heck...

    Question HELP: Electrical issue with Intech Explore, causing Fire incident

    So this is data you possess? I assume from your intech, right? I find no joy in assuming the solar was correctly installed. I have repaired to many systems due to the low quality solar installations. Both panel size, and controller capacity are the first troubleshooting steps I check when solar...

    Does anyone have experience with the thin and flexible solar panels that are available? I have a 180 watt panel from the factory on my Rockwood Mini Light and want to add more and I’m looking for suggestions.

    Seems that frequently the https://www.usdebtclock.org/ has updated the things they display! Now they are reporting solar installations!!!

    Canada wildfires (2026)

    Maybe the wind turbines should be reversed. Use solar to run the turbines
