Day Two Solar Installation

We are making progress. First order of the day was to set up our monitoring panel. Here Paul works at cutting out the head-liner in the trailer and attaching the different gauges for the inverter, charger and controller.


When he was done I thought it looked like a factory installation, very professional.

The converter, charger, and inverter are located under the couch at the front of the trailer. Here you see the IOTA DLS 75 Power Converter installed and ready to work.

Final job of the day was patching the hole left in the trailer body when we removed the battery box. Paul is very meticulous about making sure everything fits perfectly and is properly sealed. I was very pleased.

This morning we are off to Justin to get the battery box. Not  sure if we will get the solar panels on today or tomorrow.

Write and let me know if you have any questions.

Safe travels.
