This week we're off to Skooliepalooza and getting a little help from some new friends to get a big Solar upgrade for our off grid bus conversion.

WATCH- full overview of our off grid solar and electric system: youtu.be/ldRsZMrJTdc

One of the most complicated and intimidating parts of building our bus conversion was understanding the solar, batteries, and electrical system so we could live off grid in our travels.

Adding another 1230 Watts of solar now completes the system we designed and built with the help of our fiends at Dragonfly Energy/ Battle Born Batteries - bit.ly/3t45NrA
