Hey there Colin, that's a good idea. Lithium is the way to go for more efficiency and longer run time. Since your WFCO WF-8930/50 is just the distribution panel (the breaker and fuse box), you don’t need to replace the whole thing. What you’ll be…

Hey Pete. The Norcold RV Mini Fridge w/ Freezer - 3.3 cu ft - 12V - Black item #NC37VR pulls 5.2 amps or 62.4 watts. What kind of trailer or RV do you have?

Hey Henrick, yes I can help you out with finding a good solar panel for the Rich Solar Alpha 1 Pro Lithium Battery #RS74VR. First let's do some quick math based on your electronics: A 12V fridge (60W × 10 hours) = 600Wh LED lights, fan,…

When using the Go Power Solar All-Electric Kit #342-75011 that you referenced a minimum of 6 batteries is recommended for the battery bank. To maximum usage and performance of this system you will want to use 6-8 batteries. I have attached a diagram…

Hey Tim! The Progressive Dynamics 2000 Watt Inverter w/ Transfer Switch #PD64FR will not charge your batteries. This is strictly an inverter, not an inverter charger. As long as you wire everything properly it isn't a concern. The only way it…

Not at all, Kate! The Rich Solar RV Solar Charging Kit w/ 2 Panels - 12V - 400 Watts #RS97VR is ideal for bus life. It’s a great match for a 200Ah lithium setup, with headroom for adding an inverter or third battery later if you decide to do so. The…

Absolutely, Tom. The Rich Solar RV panel kit #RS97VR 400-watt output is perfect for multi-day boondocking trips. One customer, Debra from Durango, ran her microwave, 12V fridge, and lights for a 5-day dry camp in San Juan Forest without dropping…
