I'm experimenting with short-run camping excursions using a one person tent in the bed of my F-350. The setup is pretty nice, and I have most everything figured out - except for power. I'm looking for feedback on using the F-350's dual built-in batteries as storage for a small solar setup. Here's the plan:
I'd install a small portable solar array that feeds an appropriately sized charge controller. That would be tied directly into the existing Anderson connector that is/was used to charge my RV's solar setup.
During the day (only) I'd use my GoPower 12V 1500 watt inverter when the the panels are providing more power than the used current.
At night (and otherwise), I'd use my device's built in batteries (phone, tablet, laptop, etc.).
Thoughts?
