The above image is depicts one of the two OPS 300kW Hybrid Power Conditioning Unit in use at the Caribbean system, (HPC).

The Hybrid Power Conditioner (HPC) is designed as a complete system solution for remote area power applications. This unique product can automatically configure as a static AC source or it can act independently as a phase by phase battery charger. It will optimise the start and stop of up to two diesel generators if the supply can not be maintained by the renewable contribution.

Earlier this year we bought a 1960s Red Dale truck camper. The inside had been gutted and then the previous owner made it into a sleeping area for camping. We stripped out everything that was in there down to the frame and exterior metal. Then we got to work refurbishing this camper. Now it's outfitted with three 100 watt solar panels and all the trimmings for off-grid travels. We'll be heading off on our maiden voyage soon.

Summer view of the passive solar house kit, off grid, zero energy, no systems installed yet- that comes next.

Finally finished grouting the tiling for the shower, in the almacen, Riocaliente, Asturias.

This is a cheap 15 watt solar panel that I got at an auto supply store for about $100. It comes with everything you need to plug and play. The panel itself is already wired with a plug. And the frame has holes in it which made it easy to hang off the gutter here.
