I bought the book, studied it, watched hours of videos about solar and have an upgrade plan. Looking for a general review to help make sure I don't have any problems with components or planning.
2021 Toyota Tundra and a 2022 Winnebago 2201MB Trailer with 190 watt solar panel and 30 amp pwm controller with a cheap factory battery.
I bought the Renogy 50 amp dc/dc with mppt solar charger and will run a 2 gauge wire from the alternator with plug at the bumper.
Plan to add 2 additional 190 watt panels for a total of 570 watts, these panels are 12 volts at 9.3 amps each and will run in parellel so 27.9 amps.
Thinking to use inline fuses for each panel and 8 gauge wire with mc4 connectors and 3 to 1 branch connectors
Planning to add a Renogy 2000 watt inverter and a 20 amp ac/dc charger for shore power. (if I hook up it will be overnight or longer)
I have not decided what battery yet, but I'm looking at a 300Ah 12V LiFePO4, with built-in 200A BM by Wingda or similar for 799.88 Amazon.
I plan to follow the 400 watt with alternator charging plan, except for 570 watts of solar and adding disconnects for the solar and alternator.
I would appreciate any suggestions or advice for my project.
