New post- Weather Permitting the Solar Panel is going on the roof tomorrow!
Today was all about prep-work since tomorrow I have my brother and two friends from work coming over to help get the panel up and attached to the fiberglass roof.
First up was cleaning and painting the side vents that cover the refrigerator and cutting an entry point for the solar cables in the upper vent. I cleaned them with dish soap and water and then a brilo pad after scrapping all the old butyl tape off the back, used some Rustoleum Flat White paint. pics-
While that all dried I went to a place called the Reuseum for some wire and a project board to attach my solar controller and a 20 Amp resettable fuse to and set it up. Then I attached it to the house battery:
Then I got the Solar Panel out- 150 Watt Poly panel and put the feet on it
Ready for mounting and I may be able to get it all wired up tomorrow!
