RV lifestyle has always been synonymous with off-the-grid, away from it all fun. Boondocking is now getting a new life with Solar.
Solar panels and solar preparation all now available on most RV models in the marketplace. Some are simple battery charges to full-on solar energy capabilities.
Most come already prepped for solar panels, typically just a plug-in suitcase-style folds-out panel. Larger fifth-wheel models have panels located on the roof. You will also find rooftop panels now available on most motorhome models as well.
With deep cycle lithium battery technology advances, Small space batteries are safe and can produce an endless supply of power. These batteries are not like traditional acid batteries. You could place these batteries anywhere in the RV.
A bit new will be to completely cut the electric cord if you choose to go 100% solar while camping. The ability to run the camper completely solar is still a bit pricey, but like all technology, we should see this pricing fall, especially with so many folks choosing to be off-grid.
These new battery banks are durable, reliable, and can withstand just about any condition your camping needs can throw at it. Ability to withstand brutal cold or brutal heat. Solar is coming of age quickly.
Getting off the beaten path with the comfort of home. Not a bad problem to have!
Space being a premium in a travel trailer, fifth wheel, or toy hauler can be challenging. The new battery systems for solar can be put just about anywhere totally out of the way. This is one of the game-changing benefits of the new solar systems being introduced.
