RV SOLAR EDUCATION AND RESOURCES

Build your solar knowledge base here!

Full disclosure: We bought our rig from boondockers so we inherited the solar system. We have no direct experience in any businesses listed below. We are not the traditional roving RVers...we live frugally in an RV and have a home RV park. Like you we are learning as we go.

I hope as you learn about RV solar stuff you will add your two megawatts to the site. What are you exceptional resources and experiences?
AM SOLAR - Many folks we met at Life-On_Wheels recommended these folks.
AM Solar for years were one of the outstanding teachers of solar technology for "Life on Wheels" RV Seminars. Sadly the seminars have ended however Greg and Debi are still available to share their expertise. They share not only knowledge but also a product line created especially for the unique and adventurous RV experience.

Their solar product line is tested and designed especially for you. Solar panels, charge controllers similar Solar Boost, SunRunner systems, Magnum Inverters, deep cell batteries and accessories are all part of their product line. Add to that they accept trade-ins and remanufactored products.

"We know that healthy batteries mean happy campers! And because of that, our SunRunner solar systems are designed with the RVer in mind. They take care of business so that you can enjoy the RV lifestyle without worrying about whether or not you have enough power to run all the things you want to use." - From their website.

Don't buy anywhere else till you check out their product line!
SPECIALTY CONCEPT INC -
Another resource to consider.

From their website:
"Specialty Concepts Inc. manufactures the most reliable line of electronics for photovoltaic systems in the world. For over 27 years, we have been producing high-quality, reliable units. Today, there are well over 1,000,000 pieces of Specialty Concepts' equipment throughout the world controlling MANY MEGAWATTS of PV power."
HOLY SOLAR
More Solar Brain Food:
"The first task, of course, was choosing the right panel. We went with the Unisolar model for several reasons. First, unlike its vulnerable mono-and-polycrystalline counterparts, the ThinFilm technology is considered "unbreakable." Of course, you shouldn't take a sledgehammer to any solar panel, but the manufacturer asserts that it can sustain normal impact without damage." From their website.

This site is chock full of green energy mojo! Check them out and let us know what you think.
