I'm 90% sure the existing 12v system has the charging feature on the camper from the factory, so I should be covered there. I'll probably just upgrade the existing 12v battery to a 200ah AGM as well.

Well, I decided to go with a split system. Keep everything that is on 12v as is, and do the EG4 48v battery and 3000EHV-48 for my 120v needs. And the 2000 watts of solar on top. I'll upgrade the 12v battery and 12v solar at a later date, or buy a buck converter and power them off the 48v...

The roof is 29' long and can support all 8 panels without interference. The camper has one, 1600 watt a/c unit, but I didn't plan on sizing the system for using the a/c unit. I understand the charge controller sizing and all that, which is leading me back toward using a 24v or 48v system, mainly...

I am not oppsoed to a 12volt system as most of my demand is 12 volt (fridge, lights, water pump, heater fan, awning/slide motor). Looking at a 12 volt system again, I am trying to size a charge controller. In series, my...

Did you build your own 12v batteries or buy one(or multiple)? Any suggestions for resources on building my own? The one thing I am lacking is storage space for the batteries. If they are lithium i would prefer they be stored in the heated area of the travel trailer so they don't drop below the...

I assume you are happy with your choices? What would you change, if anything, if you had to do it again? What inverter do you use? What 12 volt power draws do you have?

Hey all. Firstly, I did a lot of searching for threads covering this topic but would like personal feedback on this setup. Looking to convert an existing camper outfitted with 190 watts of solar and 1, 12v deep cycle battery to 48v off grid mobile workstation. Our energy demands are below, and...
