EPIC 24v RV Solar Upgrade with Battle Born Batteries & Victron Energy
We begin an EPIC 24-volt RV power system upgrade while boondocking in the mountains of Colorado in our Class A motorhome in Part 1 of this RV Solar Upgrade video series. Every single component of our existing solar system is swapped out for new. Goodbye AGM batteries and Magnum equipment and hello Battle Born Lithium Batteries and Victron Energy Inverters and Solar Chargers. All in all when complete we will have 2000w of panels on the roof with 10 HighTec 200w solar panels, 10 Battle Born 24v Lithium Batteries, 2 3000w Victron inverters, a Victron Energy solar controller and a 24 to 12v dc/dc converter. (Season 3 Episode 33)
We are proud to partner with Battle Born Batteries thru Epic Nomad TV and RV Nomads the movie. We look forward to sharing our monster 24v Battle Born battery story. Disclosure… we are a paying customer with a reviewing relationship with Battle Born Batteries.
