I like the idea of keeping the panel in the tent ! :smiley:

I just finished wiring up my portable solar kit today. I ended up building it into a pelican case.

Finished up the solar kit this morning. Cant wait to field test it in a couple weeks :smiley:

haha...our camp pile is getting bigger than our living pile. Its a disease!

Date depending of course, we are always up for a good time and to meet some new peeps :smile:

None of the WM box stores had them locally. I finally saw one in person and really liked it. Im thinking of getting a smaller one for just camp cocktails and spare clean ice for them cocktails. Have to keep an eye out ! Sad day when people do crap like that. I would be "sore" as hell about...

This is the tray I built to raise the bottom and mount controller and inverter to. I hot glued in the MC4 fittings for the solar panel. This kit will never see weather but it does seal the opening just in case.

I would look into that check engine light ! LOL Neat idea for mounting though ! :wink:

Awesome plate ! :sunglasses: And nice rig !

Awesome pics ! What tires you running there?

My favorite is anything other than pavement or mud. Im a climber/crawler though, love challenges. :hearteyes:

Totally waterproof...and bulletproof, bounce proof and bear proof...lol (if there is such a thing) :tonguewink:

Great stuff !! Thankyou :smile:

@bajatacoguy Keep an eye out tomorrow...a Pelican is flying in...enjoy !

Worked on the solar kit today... Strapped the batteries in, cut holes and mounted all power outlets, built tray for inverter and controller. Just need to do some wiring now.

Worked on the solar kit today. I started with an empty Pelican 1650 this morning and now I have the batteries strapped in. I was able to screw the strapping right to the pelican base and was surprised at how tough these cases are. The batteries don't budge. In the end of the case I have all the...
