The Ham Radio Camper Trailer has gotten some updates.
Today we look at the energy updates and the off-grid goals for the camper trailer. We also look at using a raspberry pi and Elecrow 7inch touchscreen to build Victron VenusOS power management system. This should make it easy to monitor the Power Queen LiFePO4 battery, the generated energy from the new AllPowers solar panels, and current load from all the portable ham radio gear. With all these updates, the camper trailer should be completely sustainable, anywhere it is deployed.
