Re: RV shore power plugged into inverter run by 12v battery and 100w solar panels
I'm still getting on my feet in a new state new job still finding a place to park it for good. And until I'm able to have someone help install the solar panel system correctly I'm doing it the cheapest way I can. That's why I asked if you could plug the shore power cord into the inverter as a possible short term solution until I'm fully set up with solar correctly or have a place to plug into an actual better shore power system. I didn't know if it was possible to do or not I'm still figuring the whole solar stuff out all on my own with my daughter. She was trying to figure stuff out and thought hey is that possible to just do it that way obviously not all the time like a normal house or campground power system and not using everything in the camper like normal mostly just the wall outlets for tv mini fridge microwave(when needed) and small ac unit or space heater when needed and the panel system came with 2 lights that light up the whole thing so I wouldn't be using the camper switches for light. Or a water heater because I'm fixing all plumbing still.988Views0likes1CommentRe: RV shore power plugged into inverter run by 12v battery and 100w solar panels
Alright thank you I'll give it a try, I won't be using the water I have to fix all the plumbing stuff the only think I need to work is the wall outlets for my small tv mini fridge sometimes my microwave(when needed) and I have a small ac unit I use for the summer and tiny space heater in the winter but I won't have everything plugged in at the same time anyways. I'm still remodeling the whole camper so I don't need much all at once I just wanted to know if it was okay or possible to plug the cord into that kind of power system instead of a house or campground kind of system. Until I can get the solar panel system hooked up properly.990Views0likes2CommentsRe: RV shore power plugged into inverter run by 12v battery and 100w solar panels
So I thought if I took my shore power cord and put it directly into my inverter hooked up to the battery and solar panels that it would work the same way it does plugging it into a regular outlet power source.1.1KViews0likes4CommentsRe: RV shore power plugged into inverter run by 12v battery and 100w solar panels
I don't have a place to plug it in at the moment that's why I'm using the panels but my 12v battery doesn't last very long at all without having to be charged and that's only running my small fan at night and my 22" tv maybe 5hrs a day. I have my RVs 2nd battery that's supposed to run the inside but it's not working right now.1.1KViews0likes5CommentsRV shore power plugged into inverter run by 12v battery and 100w solar panels
I have the ThunderBolt Magnum 4 25w Solar Panels (100w) Kit, that I use to charge my 12V battery and sometimes the 2nd battery for my RV to use my 750w power inverter for electricity in my RV, my question is when all that is hooked up like it's supposed to be and my inverter is ready to have something plugged in to power on would it be okay to plug in my RVs shore power cord (with 3prong wall outlet adapter needed) directly into my power inverter and have it run my RV like it would at campgrounds ect.....???? I've googled it in so many different ways and can't seem to get a direct answer that I understand fully. I'm new to all of this solar stuff and rv stuff.1.1KViews0likes14Comments
