Hello, First Post
I have been lurking on this board and watching Will's Vids for 6 months.
I have a lot of electrical wiring experience, dad was an electrician.
There is so much great knowledge here but solar it can be a little overwhelming.
So I have studied as much as I could made some decisions to wade into the Solar world for my Travel Trailer.
I am about 25% of the year on the road but planning on upping that tp 75% and exploring the west next year.
I started with 2 lead acids and a 200 Watt Renogy/PWM suitcase this year. It is Ok but if I am going to boondock I need AC power.
So I designed a system based on adding 400Watts and an MPPT and upgrading to 2 Battle borns with a 2200W inverter for growth.
I just need occasional 1500 Watt loads for short periods. I have a 3500 watt geny to run my AC if I need it.
I am little uncertain of the 1/0 wire is overkill and if I have maybe missed a fuse or 2.
Any feedback from the Gurus here would be appreciated.
200Watt Renogy Suitcase 30Amp PWM
400Watt Rich solar kit 40 AMP MPPT
Go Power Transfer Switch
Giandel 2200W Inverter (Smoking Deal onBlack Friday)
(2)Battle Born 100AH (Smoking deal on Cyber Monday)
I will post as I build and hpe not to release any magic smoke.
