Our DIY RV electrical system 3 years later - a detailed walk-through

Follow
Adventurous Way

We installed our DIY RV electrical system as soon as we hit the road in the RV almost 3 years ago. In this video, we give you a detailed walkthrough of our system that consists of 300Ah Battle Born Batteries, Victron inverter, DC to DC charger, 600 watts of rooftop solar that lets us boondock in beautiful places that we otherwise couldn't.

If you have any questions about RV electrical and solar we now offer consultations! Book here: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/adventur...

For more details on how we installed our system and the parts list check out our rv electrical series on our blog:
