How to Get the Most Out of the Solar Power System

Peak solar panel power is obtained with full and direct exposure of sunlight. Atmospheric conditions determine the available power from the solar panels, and some days weather can be unpredictable. To get the most out of your system, park your camper van in an optimum position, so your solar panels can absorb as much from the sun as possible. To conserve your batteries’ charge, turn off your inverter when it’s not in use and unplug any cell phone or laptop chargers. Running your refrigerator on gas can help from draining your batteries quickly, since we know you want to get off the grid for as long as possible.

Solar System Benefits

Solar systems are clean, quiet and easy to use. Solar panels consume no fuel and give off no waste. With no moving parts, you can enjoy peace and quiet and the simplicity of maintenance - just keep the surface of the panels clean. One of the best parts is that they are safe and reliable for your Class B+ motorhome when properly installed, due to their relatively low power output. So what are you waiting for? With your newfound solar panel knowledge, get out there and explore.
