| > We have 640w total from four 160w panels on the top of BoB. Feeds into a 200ah [[https://amzn.to/3o2F62d|lithium battery]]. Power draws are the 5 cubic foot [[food:refrigeration|fridge/freezer (12v)]], the [[https://amzn.to/3sICmut|MaxxFan]] in season, the microwave through the 1000w [[https://amzn.to/3cH45EE|inverter]]. All that certainly does not need the 640w, even in the winter here in WA state. And then there's our 12v A/C unit. It draws 32-40 amps when operating. And when are we most likely to use it? When its warm and there's full sun. With the [[https://amzn.to/3cJtg9F|BlueSky MPPT controller]], I can see 35-40 amps incoming from the panels. -- Zyzzyx((http://www.promasterforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=62682)) | > We have 640w total from four 160w panels on the top of BoB.

| | > 800w... 4x [[https://amzn.to/3K1QXJu|SOK 206Ah]] LFP....3000w inverter I’ve got a window AC on the back of my van. My pup runs hot and it’s important to me to have her comfortable, even at hot beach days, or desert days. Whatever it may be, i’d rather have her comfortable than not. I also have a doggy cam that runs pretty much 24/7 that monitors both my dog and the van when we’re away from it (for security), as well as powering my laptop, phone, lights, water pump, outlets, and my cooking devices (air fryer lol & coffee pot) -- CommunicationDue6325((https://www.reddit.com/r/vandwellers/comments/t274w3/anyone_have_a_800w_solar_system_finishing_my/)) |
