So as long as I have my coffee and nobody bothering me, I should be good.
I just got off the phone with a friend, both of us RV newbies, talking about boondocking. We were trying to figure what made sense for dry-camping power sources. He was leaning to an Onan generator. I was leaning to a couple of lithium batts and solar panels, and (2) 2000W generators with 30A adapter. Neither of us has any idea, it's just talk now.
I had 17 250W solar panels on my house in Hawaii, and I tell ya, it ran everything except the central air-conditioner. 17 panels was pretty awesome. |
Scott,
Take your time to research your power choices. I have had 2 2000W Hondas for awhile, have gone to 4 golf cart batteries and starting to work inverter and solar.
