Re: clean and tidy.
That's the two solar Panels Bob..... Well worth having as a back up if you find yourself in the back of beyond or in a layby somewhere !
Ok, I confess.......

Re: clean and tidy.
Looking good.
Will the Grom go in through the hab door?
How much solar power have you got, looks a lot. Are they all hooked up to the leisure battery/s.
Gonna have extra solar put on ours although we have no plans to go pikey.

It's 450 watts now but 300 for the larger panel which charges a 120AH Battery that powers TV, Video, Phones, cameras and the Induction Hob.... the 150 panel charges another 120AH Battery as a back up plus anything we need outside.... the leisure battery is in addition. It just makes things easier for those little off grid trips. Most people get by fine without Solar by all accounts...... Just fitted a little CCTV system this morning so I can see what's happening outside when all the blinds are down. Thinking about a Sat Dish next, fitted a sound system for the TV and we have a little Crude Air con blower that is again powered by the Solar and works by blowing air over a couple of Ice Packs in a little water compartment. The MH does have Cab Air Con but when It's hot at night, We don't want to be running the engine.... of course, if we was rich like wot yoo iz...... We'd have the lot in a nice new rig.... innit !

Re: clean and tidy.
Sometimes i wish i had the know how to do as above. If i copied you it would cost me a fortune at the garage cause i can't do it.
The new one i will have extra panel, just in case. Makes sense.
And money ain't everything, having true love like you and Sam is far more rewarding

To be fair Bob, I'm crap with electrics but I get these thoughts in my head and give it a go ! As for me and Sammy well...... A 27 year life sentence for Murder would have been a lot easier...............

Re: clean and tidy.
Make sure the solar panels are fastened down well - those things are nasty when broken as they generate thousands of tiny sharp glass shards (I collected a few broken ones for the dumpster last August).bobsnicholson wrote: ↑Fri Apr 30, 2021 1:35 pm Sometimes i wish i had the know how to do as above.
