    power options for our camping setup.

    @Autism Family Travels I can get 2 days out of Jackery 240 and a 37 Quart FC40TMP, with the temp set to 34 Deg F. I paired that with a 100 W Aimtom foldable solar panel, and it can keep ahead of the fridge draw in most cases, even light to medium overcast

    Popup Campers for overlanding

    I made a few changes since posting my pop up back in 2020. I reduced the weight by taking out the fridge and AC but more than gained it back by stiffening the frame and adding the tongue box and accessories. I increased the wheel size from 13" to 15" and added flat top fenders. I added a...

    Power system for our sylvansport go camper

    ...plug in our 12v cooler/fridge, a couple of LED lights, and charge our phones/cameras/laptops and run the wife's hair dryer and straighter at times. I was thinking a 400ah lithium battery, solar panels on the roof and a charge controller/inverter for our gear. Any thoughts on this one? thanks

    Overlanding with a CPAP; Power options?

    ...suggest ecoflow. Depending on how long you stay and how many watts your CPAP consumes, they have a bunch of battery sizes. I use a delta 2 (1024wh) for my heart pump. It was critical that my pump was powered at all times (either battery or direct power). Also brought a 220 watt solar panel.

    Portable power station to power trailer systems??

    none of the batteries are single cell and even lead acid batteries have multiple cells. a battery is basically 2 dissimilar metals (anode and cathode) suspended in an acid solution (electrolyte). say i have a quart mason jar full of electrolyte and i stick in an anode and cathode and measure...

    Portable power station to power trailer systems??

    Go to the Will Prowse DIY SOLAR forums, and read the sub forum on diy battery banks. Best info source on web by far. Seems general concensus is prices have dropped so much that diy cell build not worth it unless looking for something nonstandard in total capacity or shape. I mean, Lifepo4...

    Portable power station to power trailer systems??

    the presence of moderators on here prevents me from elaborating on that further... speaking of power stations...amazon has the ecoflow delta 2 for $499 right now. they are usually $900, so a good savings if you are interested in one

    Hey, with enough imagination... I power my squaredrop with a Bluetti AC180 (we call it the bluetittie), using the cigarette port (10A) tied to a buss, which in turn is tied to all the stuff. 2 LED reading lights, a larger overhead LED light, a vent fan, a small LED light in the galley, and a...
