If you have been following along on this series, I am converting my friend's 2021 Jayco Eagle travel trailer to his dream off-grid RV for remote travel and work. In this episode, I finally test the sytems out and show the installations of all the components and almost get it finished, just to find out I cannot test everything until I get the new/replacement LCD touchscreen control for the trailer as many of the RV functions are on it.
To say this has been more work than I thought it would be is an understatement. However, I do think it is important so that viewers and interested people know that it is not just a small little job that they watched a video of it done on.
I appreciate all the feedback that is kind and try to answer when I can. I feel like I did make a point to say this is not going to be in the desert heat during the summer and was never the plan.
While Victron makes a great inverter, I really think their cable management lacks a lot of foresight and their networking is archaic and overly complicated. If I am wrong about the Cerbo and smart screen functions I apologize, but that has been what a few Victron dealers have stated to me as the truth.
Thanks for watching!
