    Battery solar charger

    I'm wondering if there is a true solar charger for an rv battery that charges by the sun and doesn't have to be plugged into the pickup cigarette portal.

    Cargoes!

    Minimum solar! My history with solar defines this 1500 watts as the least acceptable solar install. It has become time to change what is considered my storage unit from cargo to fifth. And clean things up! Feels good to know I'm 1.5 months ahead of my self imposed schedule 😁

    Solar anyone?

    And I don't mean adding a couple of panels to the roof, I mean full-on-solar! This Solar-Powered RV Runs Without Fuel Or Charging Stations

    Solar Panel Operation Question

    ...stolen from different storage facilities around Houston, we recently downgraded to a smaller Coachman Spirit 2963BH. This one came with a 100W solar panel preinstalled on the roof, and we attached the loose cables near the battery to the +\- poles as labelled. What is required for the...

    I have a Keystone Fusion Toy Hauler, and want to install solar. A Bluetti AC300 with two batteries and solar panels providing 24kwh when fully charged is about half the cost of a hard solar system install. Does anyone have any experience with the Bluetti and will it provide for my needs the...

    CA strikes again with CARB ACT

    There is a lot more farmland lost to growing ethanol than solar or wind. And many solar and wind installations are installed on non productive land.

    Question Passport 290BHS solar question

    My wife and I are looking seriously at purchasing a 2023 Keystone 290BHS from Camping World. The coach has the factory installed solar flex 400 system. The question is what will this power? Is there a setting or switch I can use to keep the house batteries charged while in storage, will it...

    Ready to buy new Class B...but solar questions

    I am totally committed to buying a new Class B RV, and am leaning toward one of the Thor models with the newest solar technology. The major choices seem to be a 200 vs. 400 vs. 800 Amp-hour. If I cannot find one on a lot (very limited selection in my area), then I am willing to special order...

    Solar panels / charger doing what it is supposed to?

    I recently purchased a new 2023 New Aire 3543 with their factory installed 640W of Lithionics batteries and 400W of GoPower solar with a Schneider Electric (Xantrex) C40 DVM solar charger. For the life of me it either displays 0 watts or 13 watts, with a solid green status light during the day...

    Question How much does solar help you?
