    LiFePO4 120 Volt Battery Charger

    The camper is wired for 120 volts, and I do have a few 12 volt items like 2 LED RV lights, water pump and television. Could I maybe just put some kind of a 12 volt load through a 12 volt timer to come on for an hour everyday?

    Cargo Trailer Conversion

    Yea, I can do all the 120v stuff if on shore power or my generator. I want to start doing some camping/kayak fishing in the Ocala National Forest at some Forestry campgrounds that do not have electrical hookups, and I don't want to run the generator all the time. My 12 volt needs are very minimal.

It was already set up as a camper, and was never used for work. It has dual torsion axles with brakes...

    Cargo trailer conversion to EC

    I'm new to solar, and am installing it on my cargo trailer camper. I also have a 30 amp RV input on my trailer, but want to power all the 12v stuff with solar when dispersed camping, and not using my generator.
