The All Things Overlanding Podcast16 Syys 2019

S1E14-Solar and Overlanding (benefits, simple or complex?, terms and install)

On today's Podcast, I'll be talking about a topic that I've recently been putting a ton of time and research into. That's solar power.

I recently purchased a 100 Watt Renogy polycrystalline solar panel with PMW controller. I plan to use it to keep a deep cycle battery (separate from my main, starter battery) charged in my new drawer system I'm building in the back of the truck. The goal will be to have a constant source of power that I can use to charge things like my laptop, phone, GMRS radios, small battery packs, etc.

So, if you want to hear more about what I've learned which will hopefully save you hours, days, and even weeks of research, give it a listen!
