The weather is still rain each day with wind so I still have the patio awning rolled up. We lost one awning years ago due to the wind and I'm trying not to lose another one.
I did buy a length of aluminum angle to make the feet for the 100w solar panel that I bought from Amazon a week ago. Yesterday I was sawing the angle for the feet. I was going to use this panel to put on the ground when we are parked in the forest in the shade. But then I got to thinking how much trouble it would be to carry it in the motorhome and move it in and out. So with doing that I decided it would be better to just put it on top of the motorhome with the rest of the panels.
The 325 watts of solar have been plenty for us and we haven't used the portable generator very much.
But with the propane refrigerator biting the dust and installing a residential refrigerator I thought an extra 100w panel would help. I also added two extra 12 volt batteries last year so I think we are good to go without any problems.
Thanks for stopping by and have a great day.
This is the travels of Joe and Nancy. Nancy is part Cherokee and I'm Hungarian, thus the name of our blog. We started full timing May,1,2000. We traveled in our motorhome visiting beaches,state parks,national parks,corp of engineer parks. We have overnighted in Walmarts, 24 hour grocery store, boat ramps, FlyingJ. Now with health issues and old age. Plus, we have not used the motorhome in a few years, this part of our life has come to an end.
