My new van buildout thread
I figure I will have a lot of questions so I should put them all in one thread :). I got a new van! Well, an old one, but new to me. It's in another state, and I won't see it in person for a few m...

ok. I see. I'm picturing a wing full of panels up there. :) You can juggle things around and put the emphasis on the freezer and ice machine batteries and be more conservative on the van side of things.
Other than plugging in the only other ting you can do right now is get the maximum out of the vans charging system. Eliminate as much voltage drop as possible and/or upgrade alt
I think I need some voltage drop because the batteries are AGM, right?
A lot of times I don't drive enough to get much out of the alternator... will see how it goes.
I think I would add solar before I would upgrade the alt. But if it dies or something and I NEED a new one, I would def go bigger because why not :).
