Yes we do have some of the heavy duty happi's. I wasn't even thinking about these

Man this is a lot to think about for sure! I have a friend that did a 12-24v 10k btu treeligo air conditioner. He has x2 400ah 12v EG4s and said his ac will run for about 10 hours on low and use 50% of his battery.

I'm hoping we can do propane but space is limited is why I was thinking electric. I'll start looking into the propane ones : )

So the goal for us is to be able to take a 3-4 day trip and be able to run the ac unit and everything else without issue and no shore power. We originally were looking at those roof top 12-24v ac units which are suppose to be really efficient. I just don't know if it would be better to do that...

I was worried about this, 48v probably isn't feasible then, 2 panels is pretty much all I have room for, I could fit a half panel maybe but it'd be tight

Thank you so much for the responses : ) Is there a huge loss say going from 24v to 120v to run appliances with an inverter vs running 24v (or 12v) appliances? How much run time would I be losing if any, for: x2 48v 100 ah x2 24v 200 ah x2 12v 400 ah

With zero experience, I would think the systems would look like this: 48v system: EasySolar-II 48/3000/35-32 MPPT 250/70 GX x2 24v poly panels 300w x2 - 100ah 48v EG4 EG4 Chargeverter 48v Truck Alternator 12v system: SmartSolar MPPT 150/45 Phoenix 12/50 Orion-Tr-Smart 12/12-30 x2 24v poly...

Hey all, was trying to get some advice on 12v vs 48v for our truck camper. Would it be better to go with a 48v system with inverter to 120v for the appliances and install a 48v alternator on the Powerstroke? Or better to stay 12v and run 12v appliances with no inverter? We are after run time...

Same here, I've been scammed more the past 6-8 months then is the last 10 years, mainly on Amazon too!

Just did some looking at these and apparently should avoid them. They are stated at 500w each but apparently are only 100w or less each

No idea on warranty for these, our thoughts were they are going to get beat around and open to the elements 100% of the time so we didn't want to go high end on the panels. My guess is the warranty is bad of even no existent.

Hey all, we are getting ready to do solar on our truck bed camper. I have been reading through a lot of the forum posts and have watch many of Will's videos. Right now here is our parts list: https://signaturesolar.com/eg4-lifepower4-lithium-battery-12v-400ah/ Victron SmartSolar MPPT 100/50...
