This is great stuff.
Back in the 90’s I installed (myself) 10 160 watt solar panels on my home. Used 8 Trojan T-105 batteries and a quality inverter.
Well that was 20 years ago and it’s fun to begin adding solar to my dry-camping setup.
Not sure where to begin with my desert boondocking rig but my biggest concern will be wiring.
When not in the desert the rig is stored indoors in Reno with no way to get solar to it.
It’s a public storage place and we don’t live in Reno we just travel there every month or so to gold prospect in Northern Nevada.
So I’m going to go ultimately with 4 Trojan T-105 AGM’s and thanks to you guys will be installing probably an 80-amp Progressive Dynamics charger/converter.
Will be beefing up the receptacle wiring to 20-amps for the charger/converter.
I’m assuming we’ll have to also beef up the wiring from the PD to the batteries correct?
I may have installed my own solar way back when but I’m kind of back to square one in installing solar panels, a charge controller and tying this all into the PD system.
Yes an inverter at some point.
Is there by chance out there a unit that is not only a 110v charger/controller but also a solar power regulator/charger?
For those of you with solar how do you tie all your components together?
This is enjoyable to discuss and your ideas/suggestions are appreciated.
