Have you ever looked at the 12v roof A/c’s ? They’re a bit more expensive than the 120v’s. That’s what I originally was going to use in my build but we decided the mini split would be the most efficient. We were going to go with the Mabru 12k I believe. Would I just hook up multiple SCCs...

I would love to find some review videos. Anybody have experience with this unit or the Pioneer 110v unit? Or similar

I just checked those out as Ive been searching everywhere for the best flexible panels. Currently though, BougeRv sells 100w cigs with a 12 year warranty for $100 more. Where as the sunpower panels only have a 2 year warranty. I have yet to find anyone who’s had the CIGS for for a couple years...

Hello again guys! So I have some questions about optimizers. I’ve seen in a thread people talk about them and how they can enhance energy collection. I would be theoretically adding 4x TS4-A-O 1x Tigo TAP 1x Tigo CCA The system would be attached to 4x 450w panels on a bus conversion. Would...

I’ll have to check out his video. I have checked their prices and they’re comparable but slightly higher than litime. I’ve emailed them with questions on their 300ah battery but haven’t got a reply. My biggest question with them is with their bms amps. It’s not stated on their website

Thank you for sharing your build! It gives me some ideas for real world full time mobile living. That’s our plan next year to start full time mobile living. I haven’t purchased anything yet. We are still building out our rig. We’re converting a low mileage 23’ shuttle bus. Next spring is when...

Thanks for the reply! I get the battleborn quality is going to be better but for the price I’m not sold lol. It seems like a slight gimmick with Chinese imported cells. Quality control I’m sure is much better. But temperature is not a problem as the battery bank will be inside the build, with...

I needed one for my mobile build and found this one. They did have it listed in their pdf on the website it’s like the last Orion listed on the spec sheet. But I just rechecked and I don’t think they make them anymore? Or it’s just buried on their website somewhere? I’ve always found it alittle...

I’ve read numerous places the angling of panels also helps with keep them clean. But thanks for the reply!

Thanks for the info! I’ve thought about something similar as far as using sheet metal for support. The fiberglass roof is sadly very thin. We’re also not set on a panel choice yet. It’s essentially down to a balance between the most watts and cost. We want to have an overall build that can...

Sideways yes, that seems to be the best way to fit those specific panels. They’re the panels we’d like to use if we build an elevated roof rack. Which if we go with a flush mounting system we will probably use smaller panels and get more creative lol. We’re getting a Victron MPPT. I left that...

I’ve read so many horror stories on flexible panels! I wish the technology was better it would save so much time and energy. But sadly it’s not. I do like your idea for a mounting base. I honestly never thought of it before. I could easily make some custom brackets to attach panels. Would it...

This fan has been on my list for awhile. It’s important for me to keep as much as I can 12v to limit inverter to mini split and wall plugs in. https://www.etrailer.com/RV-Vents-and-Fans/Ventline/VP-543SP.html#exp-productdetails=.reviews

I’m actually toying around with an idea like this for my mobile application. 1500w or so if rigid panels 48v EG4 inverter, charger, scc (inverts 48v to 120/240) 20.5 kwh 48v eg4 v2 server rack batteries Then of course dc to dc inverter for 12v. Which is small loads. E.g. led lights. Vent...
