Just thought I would share my solar bank built for my 4Runner. I love this thing and it keeps me going totally off grid wherever I want to go.

  • Pelican 1560 case
  • 100ah SOK BT LifePo4 w/molded ABS bracket
  • Victron BMV-712 w/BT
  • Victron MPPT 100/30
  • Victron WaLoRan Server
  • WaLoRan Wi-Fi Receiver/Transmitter
  • Renogy 1000w Inverter w/ Breaker and Pre-charge resistor
  • 2x 12v Cigarette Ports
  • 5x USB QC Ports
  • 5x USB-C Ports
  • 2x 120V outlets
  • ExpertPower 120V to 12.8V 20A Charger with extension cable port
  • 2x High Power LED Headlamps
This all hooks up to a 100w panel on my roof tent and also plugs into the vehicle inverter that has been rigged to push 400w in motion. It keeps my food/drinks cold at all times and powers everything I need whenever or wherever I am located. Easily portable in a roller case with handle and XT-60 connection for solar panels on/off vehicle. It also connects to a Wi-Fi hotspot so I can monitor it from anywhere in the world.

Too many failures with Bluetti and Jackery products led me to build something both modular and superior in functionality. The case has breathing room and is pressure vented with all ports being weather protected and stainless hardware used for all component mounting.
