BRIAN BOONE'S GOT SOLAR

  Good evening!! I've put some links that are not solar related . But I believe every RV should have whether 30 amp or 50 amp . And that is a EMS  Electrical Management System.   So I put 2 Amazon links to the Progressive 50 Amp hardwired and portable EMS with Surge Protection. When you go to the link you can either purchase 30 amp or 50 amp. Product is made in the USA and Lifetime Warranty.   It is the BEST protection you can give your RV. It will stop high voltage, low voltage, improper wiring, it will stop Hot Skin plus Surge Protection. Cheapest insurance you can buy. Thank you for shopping on my Blog & SEE YOU DOWN THE ROAD!!

Hello Everyone!! Hope your having a Awesome Day!! I have come to find out that some people on this blog are having difficulty seeing the Amazon Links. The problem is many of you have installed on your browser AD BLOCKER. You will have to Disable your Blockers in order to see and use the links. Sorry for any inconvenience. And Thank You for shopping on my Blog SEE YOU DOWN THE ROAD !!

             GOOD EVENING EVERYONE !!   Finished my Solar install in Collierville,Tennessee today. We have (8) 160 watt Solar panels and (2) Blue Sky MPPT Solar Boost 30/24i Controllers. 4 panels to each controller. For a Combined total of 80 Amps / 1280 watts.   This is a 12 volt system. Each Panel is wired separately on #8 wire to a Combiner Box . There I switch to #4 wire going to controller, then batteries.   Wire from controller to batteries has a 50 Amp resettable circuit breaker. Controllers are stacked together ( can stack 7 ).   All controllers run through the Pro Remote. 2 controllers MAIN  /  SLAVE 1.   Main holds Temp Sensor, 2 Amp charge for Starting Batteries, Remote Panel. Installed on a 34 ft. Motorhome.   We are heading to our next job Sunday in Columbia, Tennessee. Have a Great Evening &  SEE YOU DOWN THE ROAD !!

   Here is a Solar install done on a 25 ft. travel trailer in Quartzsite,Arizona. Customer has (4) 140 watt Kyocera Panels. Flat mounted on roof. Also a Blue Sky MPPT 30/24i Solar Boost controller with Pro Remote. Also installed is a Xantrex  Prosine 2.0 Pure Sine Inverter. Customer also requested turn off switches between Solar & controller / Batteries & controller.   This is a 12 volt system, 30 Amp trailer. Equipment is installed under bench seat at front of trailer. Vents were installed for adequate ventilation.    The Prosine 2.0 comes with a built in Transfer Switch and a 100 Amp Charger.    The 30/24i is rated at 30 Amps 24 volt / 40 Amps 12 volt.                            GOT SOLAR ?!

                             GOT SOLAR ?! Here's a install I did in Quartzsite, Arizona last winter. We have (6) 187 watt 24 volt Panels. For 1122 Watts of Pure Power. Customer did not want the added expense of building a rack. So I mounted them to the trailer itself . Each mount is bolted to the rib inside. Seen customer again this winter and everything is riding well. Customer is a farmer in Idaho and uses trailer out on the farm as a power supply station. this winter we installed (6) Trojan Batteries and a 2500 Xantrex Inverter. Unfortunately customer bought a cheap Chinese controller.

                          Good Day to Everyone!!   I have done some leg work on this Blog to help those who are purchasing equipment through Amazon. On the Right hand side of the page you will find everything you need for purchasing a Magnum Inverter.   There is a Link for the 2000 watt, 2800 watt, 2800 watt kit ( Inverter, Remote, Battery Monitor Kit), 3000 watt Hybrid, Remote Panel, Auto Generator Start, Battery Monitor Kit, 300 Amp T-Fuse, 400 Amp T-Fuse, 2/0 Wire & 4/0 Wire.   The wire I found on Amazon is the Best price I have seen anywhere. The  2/0 comes with (2) 10ft. cables, Red & Black. That is $3.14 a foot !! WOW. The same is with the 4/0 and it even comes with connectors.   For those wondering why I only promote Magnum, is because I  have the 2800 watt and am well pleased with the inverter. Excellen...

    Here is a Battery Graph to give you an idea of where your battery state of charge is. On Lead Acid batteries as well as AGM the battery manufactures suggest not pulling your batteries down more than 50%, which is 12.1 ( with No Load).     This graph is for 6 volt, 12 volt, 24 volt, & 48 volt banks

                              For Those Interested    Here are pictures of my personal Solar System click on the Google+  Badge to the left.    It took 7 yrs. to finally complete the system. You don't have to do it all at once , panel by panel. But you do need to plan for expansion

               GOOD  EVENING  EVERYONE !!   I went through the line up for controllers on Amazon since that is where people like to shop.  I have come up with a wide range of controllers to fit people's various needs and their pocketbook.    First of all we have the ZAMP 30 Amp Controller, TRISTAR 45 Amp & 60 Amp, GO POWER 30 Amp, RENOGY TRACER 40 Amp, SOLAR BOOST 3000i 30 Amp, SOLAR BOOST 2512. These controllers will do the job for small systems. There also great controllers for starting out on a low budget.   For those who want top Quality Solar Controllers we have Outback, Blue Sky, Magnum, Morningstar & Victron.   There are much cheaper options BUT you get what you pay for. There are hundreds of Chinese controllers on the market for Cheap, I would strongly advise not to buy them .   I personally like the Solar Boost Blue Sky products. I have installed in my ...
