Hello everyone!

been watching a ton of Will’s vids and found the forum as well, looking to build a sweet solar setup for a 40’ toy hauler to full time in. Learning a ton and can’t wait to start building! I think I’m about a month away from being ready to order material. Much more research still needed, which is why I’m here :)
 
Thanks Craig, yes many questions to come but also finding great info already on some of my more general questions.
 
A good thing to start with is an energy audit. Try to figure out how much power you will need on a daily basis. From there you can determine how much energy you need to store (in batteries) and then work your way to how much solar panel you need to replenish everyday (or with other fallback options like generators or shore power when needed).

Enjoy the journey.
