Conversion van converted to camper
I have an 110 amp hour AGM battery hooked up to a 100 watt solar panel attached to roof. need a controller from panel to battery to not fry the battery. Sunsaver makes good ones for about $60. Several 12 volt plugs from that. I have a 12v--110v fridge--can run either way. Added some 12 volt plugs from vehicle battery. Run fridge off of van when traveling. I have a 2000 watt inverter for bigger draws and some small 100-200 watt inverters for smaller stuff.
For hookups, I got some good extension cords of 25 feet each.
This also has a generator which I converted from AC dedicated to being able to power anything in van off generator. Also have a decent battery charger.
I invented a 5 gallon self contained water system and have a porta-potty.
