We have started running some basic wiring for some of the lights, outlets, and fans. We are waiting on the remainder of our solar supplies to come in and Steph is making sure we stay organized and squared away with our wiring. We will be doing a FULL how-to over integrating a huge solar array (825 watts!!!) with a gigantic battery bank (700 amp hours!!!) In a camper van. Why are we using such an excessive solar setup? Sure, our computer and cameras suck up a large amount of power, but that's not the main reason. When we come to a 'trailhead near you' we don't want you to go to your car, fire up the engine and let it idle, just to charge your phone or camera. No... we want to have enough solar power to share! See us at the trailhead? Come on over! We will have some charge waiting for ya! All we ask in return is a story about your adventures! Have you ever seen something like that at a trailhead?via via @Adventure_in_a_backpack Instagram bit.ly/2q0jeah
We sure have been enjoying all of the sun we have been able to soak up the last few weeks. Sometimes, we will be sitting there working on the computers, and one of us will exclaim "...we are powering these computers with the sun. Isn't that crazy?" Yeah, it's crazy... β»οΈπ±ππβ»οΈπ±ππvia via @Adventure_in_a_backpack Instagram bit.ly/2AV07o3
