1. Thank you for sharing I really appreciate it looking at doing full time living on 5th wheel and not gonna be able to access hook ups
2. Thanks for the video, the battery bank in the truck is not wired correctly, your making that one battery the weak link. You should connect positive on one end battery and negative on the other end battery.
3. Did you ever do a tour
4. keep up the good work
5. Great video, but... that last thing you said about putting in a 2-3000 AH battery bank doesn't make any sense because you don't have nearly enough roof space for the number of large solar panels needed to support that size battery bank. Even if you covered the roof of your whole RV and had an addition small tilt-able ground deploy set-up... it's unlikely you'd be able to charge a bank that size. -- I'm assuming that if you want a bank that big you're looking at trying to run your A/C off of it in addition to all other electrical needs, and that's great. But you can do that and have some left over with about a 12-1500 AH bank. And you could probably support that size battery bank if you cover the entire roof of the RV in panels and have an additional small ground deploy set-up like mentioned above. -- But 2-3000 AH is just massive overkill, and I don't see the space for the number of panels needed to support it.
6. Would the 100 watt kit that Amazon sells work with my rv? Its a 1988 Komfort 36ft class a with 3 deep cycle batteries. Im moving to a rv park where i have to pay electric.
7. Solar is so interesting to me. I love not being dependent on anyone to charge my batteries. Only mother nature and sometimes she'll let you know who is in charge. (pun intended) Take care guys.
8. Great set up Ross
9. Our solar setups are pretty similar with the exception of batteries, wiring, fuses, breakers ect. Cheap system that works GREAT! Great vid guys!
10. Why would you not put it on the RV roof, I've never seen anyone put it on a vehicle
11. When we offgrid camp in our 32 foot camper in western usa (lots of sun very few cloudy days) , we were able to use a single 125 watt panel and four 6v golf cart batteries and be totally offgrid for any amount of time.. However we are very conservative with power use.. For your next project wire in a inverter to run the 120v portion of your camper.. thats what we did so we have everything off grid. Just remember to turn off the 120v dc charger so your not charging your camper batteries off the inverter that is pulling from the batteries..
12. Ross, what was the reason you put the solar panels on Size Matters instead of Lola? I love how detailed and careful with all the things you do, definitely a perfectionist ! Keep the videos coming, love them.
13. I like ur setup it's good, but I know a better way instead of using the wire from the truck to the rv
14. So what happens if you put a light up there at night and run it off the batters will it chare more then it uses lol
15. Awesome set up!
16. very nice   set up
17. What are the volts set for on the panels?
18. Great job happy to see it worked out
19. I don't understand it all but it sure looks good😀
20. dang. how do you know all that stuff
