If you have the direction control switch included with your kit, install it & leave it in place. You can then switch between clockwise & C-clockwise. Then use a speed controller, something like this, it looks a lot like the one I used...

The Alum Ion Battery looks extremely interesting. After quickly reading the article link, & as noted above, the recharge rate is stunning. The impact on a solar panel array? What kind of solar controller will be designed for such a Battery? Wild stuff. Inherent voltage parameters?

Regrettably, I am almost positive the bow tie bracket is not sold separately. Here is the assembly with it … etrailer.com also carries it. Sorry I can not offer any more mount info w/o it. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01N1MK7T9/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1 Check out 2...

Putting tires back up for sale after problematic pandemic year. Again, full retail on these brand new, w/o tax, is around $1000

Can’t argue w/Vic & am glad to hear CKent323 has seen SunPower Flex perform (tentatively) well in a Marine environment. Nice install above too, similar to mine, I used Alum tube. Individual factors & life’s variables allow for a myriad of determined usage choices. For me weight is important. SP...

Hey ... I got these 2 last year as my original 2 were cheap from Solar Blvd. I knew I’d need to change. IMO, Sunpower are the best Flex I have researched. I don’t want the glass weight on my roof or a speaker stand accessory to enable them. Here is the online SoCal dealer I used. Best price I...

I appreciate the post Rando. It provides needed info & some understanding of IR dynamics. I was especially looking for “practically speaking” and hoping for “pretty small effects”. The reference to “fortuitous” also sounds good. This takes a load off my mind. Now looking at two different...

Early on with LFP4 I was told (along w/other chemistries) that you wanted to use the same Generation for parallel or series configuration. I had a vague idea, but not really “why”. Buying my latest battery, cell matching was discussed, internal resistance (IR) seemed to be the compatibility...

Why I love included internal Bluetooth w/BMS. Note ... there are many free Apple apps from other battery dealers. I have found several that work universally with both my batteries from 2 different (now defunct) companies. Some are basic, some are the latest, advanced tech. The graphics/format on...

I posted a thread about this dealer a few days ago. This video (link) also posted may be helpful in construction.

Do not visit WTW as much now, but felt lucky/jazzed to happen upon Rando’s post about Renogy online clearance. What a great buy. Posted on the thread about a BT option & got a needed reply. Not quite ready, I rushed out to finish a critical drip irrigation retrofit project. Left the order in the...

Wow, this way too tempting. As MDR mentioned above, there is a 5% code that can be applied. (I always look for coupon codes on the net) It is quan. It basically pays for shipping. I ordered a new kayak that needs a battery, (I have a 50Ah) 100Ah would give all day fishing. My question is ...

I think u mentioned AWD in a previous post. How do you find it being an enhancement, eg. parking & cornering, for overall drivability with an enlarged vehicle? Can you realize a difference?

I’ll be curious as how you Segway into Glamping. We must have passed each other in February 2020. We were in DVNP & Alabama Hills. Our only significant adventure last year. Two short trips to the Sierra, one Eastern & one Western. One before the smoke & one later during a brief pandemic lull...

Yes, heartily agree with the j-box thought. It will not be fun but I will be replacing the SAE roof outlet with an MC4 outlet (w/extra cable) as that is such a superior connection. I had a SAE prong crumble off on my roof plug, last year, only a matter of time before the roof outlet crumbles off.

Here is a link to a long build thread that started with mounting flex panels. Started out to cut & stack (like Lincoln Logs) aluminum tube attached to my Yakima tracks. Later welded by a friend but original idea was functional. My 2- flex 100W panels have held up surprisingly well after 3 years...

Congrats Bill, Happy Trails! Hope to meet up Out Yonder sometime post pandemic. I’ll follow your reviews.

Something like below ... This also contains a SAE polarity adapter, which you may need. I did need an adapter, but realized that later, & had to order one separately. Confirm your polarity. You did not mention your Camper battery size? 50W should be great for 35ah. It will be ~2/3 slower, say...

This panel might be all u need for that size battery. If u installed a solar controller in your box, then just plug & play. Good quality MC4 connectors. I needed a MC4/SAE splitter for my box. The panel is small & easy to pack. I bought one & thought the quality was definitely an improvement...

You must have encountered the very large rocky grave site at the base of the low Lake. Particularly well done with a nice unmarked, slab type, headstone. Often a single Lake in years past, during high rainfall years, now too much reoccurring drought. I recognize a handful of these posts, had to...

Touché Vic! I had a lot of help doing my build. It had some hiccups, took too long, & did need some massaging. All worth it. Here is one more Formica pic ... We had it sitting out a few hours, to flatten out, after being curled up for a while. We had a visitor. Hey, if anybody can use this, I’ll...
