Wouldn’t it be nice to jump in the camper with your significant other, and just get away – I mean, totally away<\/em>? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There’s no <\/em>cell service. No <\/em>internet. No <\/em>noisy generators. No <\/em>light obscuring the night sky. And definitely, no <\/em>other people. You’re free to park your camper on public land in the middle of nowhere and chill for a weekend<\/strong>–with no modern distractions. <\/em>This time away would be priceless. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

That’s why you’re considering installing solar panels on your RV—<\/strong>and not just because you want to get away from technological distractions. <\/strong>You also<\/em> <\/em><\/strong>want the modern conveniences of air conditioning and refrigeration, even in remote desertscapes. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Installing solar panels on your RV can power your off-grid getaway, and it’s not as hard as you may think.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What to Expect from Your Solar Panels <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For your weekend RV adventure, you can expect solar systems with 220 Amp-hours of battery power to run your fridge, air conditioning, and other small electronics.<\/strong> If you don’t plan on using the AC or fridge, then you could get away for a week or more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But remember, your solar panels can’t charge your batteries if it’s rainy or cloudy,<\/em><\/strong> so check the weather before you go and plan accordingly. It’s always best to have a backup plan, so keep the diesel generator on hand in case of an emergency.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
