    12 or 24 volt?

    I would love too but I'm outside of Savannah. But when I was browsing the site I wished I had funds for the pack they have listed https://store.santansolar.com/product/santan-solar-t-series-240w-cracked-vinyl-solar-panel-lot20/

    12 or 24 volt?

    I have it, doesn't mean I would use it plus the fact that it only has 4plug for trailer. But when I used to live in my SUV I did run 2AWG wires with an anderson plug to my back tailgate area so in theory if I really want to I have a nice heavy wired plug to the hitch and just run another...

    Yeah been looking into those also and juggling price of a use one vs even a new trailer...seen same size trailers half that price. And don't mind doing it myself. She wants to help with it so it's something we've done together.

    The camping chuck wagon trailer

    The girlfriend, our daughter and I are camping almost every other month. Sometimes 3-4 weekend with driving, sometimes actually vacations. We've always put all the camping gear i in a cargo bag on top of my SUV, tents, chairs, tables, solar panel,duffels, beach/pool/lake toys, camp stove...

    12 or 24 volt?

    Ok.....i asked for advice like most people. The back and forth opinions on differences between A and B aren't really needed. We all have our own opinions on them including me. To me they both have their own uses ( more intense usage I'd go for A while B are good fot lower usage and less power...

    12 or 24 volt?

    Yeah I built my battery pack from grade A cells I bought that were matched. Plus being they were cells I had the option when I was putting them in my Jeep I could lay them down flat for a lower profile. I would probably go same route and buy 8 new cells instead of trying to tie 4 new ones into...

    12 or 24 volt?

    Ok in designing the trailer I would like to build, I'm stuck on the age old issue of power. I have a good background with 12v systems along with figuring out PV while I living in my Jeep. But for this trailer build should I start out with the 12v/100w panel, 100ah Lifepo4 battery, controller...

    Well after getting things set so I can post again (thanks RVW), I just want to say its brain picking time for a not your normal build. Girlfriend and I are doing some tent camping at least every other month now and instead of shoving it all on top of my SUV and totes for food and cooking...

    Picking thr right frdige

    Ok after a bunch more research I settled on this one, ACOPOWER P15 Portable Compressor Fridge Freezer. From reviews and research its the same as the alpicools, but they are US based instead of overseas plus the company deals with all types of solar equipment. Should have it in next few days so I...

    Picking thr right frdige

    Yeah TE. I've read that thread before when I first started looking at options. It's doable and I don't need a whole lot of inside space, just enough to store food for 3-4 days at a time or leftovers, hence why looking at smaller 12v coolers like the Alpicool. And Maki... yeah there isn't much...

    Picking thr right frdige

    Long time lurker, first time poster with a question. Currently living out of my suv for the past year and half and getting by great ( that is the main point isn't it?). Have the basics down except one thing..cold food storage. Currently I use a good ole fashion cooler that gets covered up while...
