Oops, 45 watts for the laptop!!

Need to power a bigger laptop (65 W I think) several hours a day for trading, electric tooth brush, phone, small 12 v fridge, fan, maybe one of the Air Max fans, Idk. The laptop is the bigger thing. I want to make sure I have enough power for several hours a day for day trading. At that time I...

Oh, I just saw your answer. Thank you! Yes, I do want a small 12 V fridge, so I might have to go with the other system and not the Yeti, but two 160 W panels should still be enough for what I want to use it. I calculated that I would need about 200 W. Ah, my brain is smoking. I will still call...

I might have found an answer to one of my questions. If you run several panels in a row, the voltage stays the same, but the amps add up. For the 160 W panel I am looking at at it says short circuit current 9.47 A for one panel. So two panels would be roughly 20 A. It is possible that the Yeti...

Thank you for your great answer! If I use two panels, does the voltage add up? So two 18V panels make 36V, in which case i would need an MPPT charge controller? And is there any advantage to not going with the portable Yeti 400 but rather go for the whole setup with controller, battery, inverter?

Hi! I am trying to figure out what I need for my solar system. I found 160 watt flexible panels with ETFE lamination for a good price (I think it’s a Renogy not sold under that name) and could possibly fit two panels next to each other in the front area of the roof 44 inch space. Next, I am...

Ah thanks, I hadn’t thought of auto body repair shops. This guy I talked to did have some experience but was recommending against the fan because of possible leaks down the road. Haha, no pun intended. He had put some in before, but no wiring, because that’s not what they normally do. They are...

I have to be in stealth mode since there is officially no free camping anywhere. I will have several places, probably different ones on the same day. Yea, not a lot of traveling here, but a good variety of scenery, ciy, upcountry or beach area. Good thing is, I don’t have to worry much about...

Hello, I am new to the forum, but have watched a bunch of YouTube videos over the past year and a half. There is a lot I still have to figure out. I let go of my Prius C ? and decided for a small cargo van, a pre-owned 2018 Ford Transit Connect. This was the best available option for the price...
