Solar Install On A Budget! - Project Van Life UK

Having being impressed with the performance of the single solar panel I bit the bullet and bought a second one and did a permanent install on the roof of the van in parallel to give me 100 watts of solar to keep the batteries topped up nicely.
It definitely seems to be one of the best things to keep the power topped up if we're going to be parked up for a while and the power output definitely seems to be living up to the claims!

The panel is a 50 watt Mono-Crystaline semi flexible one. Unfortunately it seems to have gone out of stock at Amazon where I got it from but a very similar one is here - https://smile.amazon.co.uk/Lowenergie...

The system really does work well though and it's still not over intrusive on the outside to give too much away that it's a camper - still has those builder's van vibes!

If you like to see more of what we're doing with the van and where it takes us please do subscribe - we try to get a new video out every Sunday and as the build progresses you'll be able to watch them all in the Van Builds playlist.

Remember, this is our first attempt at this so we're learning as we go so come join us on the journey!
