Van Build Tip - How To Install A Harbor Freight Solar Panel On An Urban Stealth Camping Mini Van - I decided to install a Harbor Freight 25-Watt Solar Panel to trickle charge the house battery.
Awesome. I added the big kit to my off grid vintage tin can camper. 100 watt with inverter bought the batteries and a inverter big enuff to add more solar.. bought mine on sale online 120 bucks. Not the inverter or 2-65 wh batteries tho.. Its awesome if you go off road and stealth. I love solar..its in my bug out house on wheels I just finished.. . Lol cant go wrong with that. Great job.
Not a bad system. Little pricey, but not bad. I was looking at their 50 watt and 100 watt panels myself. I do have three extra charge controllers so I'll opt to use those I believe. I did buy one of their multi purpose batteries on your suggestion. I'm using that to charge my phones only. Wanted to give it a test run. Thank you for the suggestions. God bless brother. Hang in there.
Hey buddy... I have the 100 watt from harbor Freight.... Be carful because those tie things are going bake in the sun, and get hard then brake.... So, you may want to rethink another solution.... You Dont want it to brake while your driving...
I just purchase a hundred watt panel. I have one of the three with forty five watts. it comes with a solar charger. for less for words. I'm wondering the controller will work with both. the one that comes with the package
dude that charger isnt for car batterys . You need to sell that other 3 car battery . why you say you need to get the solar battery from harbor fright their different batters . Only use the therd battery for laptops and lighting and the secound house battery for cooking just put an charge controller betten the car Alternator and the other battery so it brings the voltage down
