I hope this video is helpful to anyone that is considering installing any type of solar panels & MPPT charge controller, lithium batteries & battery monitoring shunt, inverter/charger.
We do a lot of 3-4 day or week long camping trips throughout the year and try and get a cross country trip in every couple years. Since we prefer camping in National, State, & County Parks utility services aren't always available, we enjoy having power throughout the RV whenever we need it so I installed this system.
Whatever you decide to install make sure you do your research to make sure you install a system that fulfills your needs and that is made with quality products.
I must admit that the system I installed cost more than I wanted to spend but after using it for the last 20 months I'm happy I splurged.
NOTE: Links to the products I used, videos mentioned, and much more are located below.
