Half-A-Mile of extra WIRING in this 2014 Leisure Travel Van Unity. 🤯🤯

YES- CHECK THE PHOTOS.

Our client just purchased this van and told us we're not going to believe how everything was installed. We said send us some pictures. We thought it was a big job- but then we got a chance to see it in person. After 10min of assessing the old system I was looking for the camera as I was sure this was an episode of PUNK'd!

Funny thing is we found the camera later. There was actually a We**am behind the fridge. This fridge got more attention than most middle-aged adults. There were about 14 sensors all around the fridge monitoring every metric needed and mostly not needed.

If we can categorize this job in one word it would be SUPERFLUOUS.

10 battery meters on the doors of the cabinets, under the step cover, behind the fridge, and hidden in many odd places.

About 60% off all the wires that were visible and hidden were no longer connected to working equipment. All these extra unmanaged wires created a hidden liability. There were 4 fire hazards present. It's truly a blessing it didn't burn down.

Client complained that the 560w of total solar wasn't charging and the DC / DC didn't seem to be charging.

Part of the problem was that there was a steady 400w+ drain on the system while nothing but the fridge was running. We got to the root of that problem.

Motivated by making the RV safe and actually serviceable we removed the extra wires and simplified the solar system into one compartment rather than be spread out around the RV. There were truly wires and conduits visible in every compartment and usable cabinet space was down about 50%.

The client expressed wanting to maybe rent out the RV in the future so simplicity is truly key.

The results were borne by the fruit of much labor and diligence. The reward is that we gained a client for life.

We LOVE IT when a plan comes together! 🤩 Client came down from Jacksonville for a one day install. They were using portable panels for their build-out up until now.

We installed 780w of Eco-worthy bi-facial panels using the existing roof track. The panels fit perfectly, allowing us to use unistrut hardware by custom making some anchors.

We also installed a Victron 150/60 MPPT to effectively charge their 2x 300Ah lithiums.

The end result, a strong, clean install for lots of clean power for lots of off-gridding to come!

2025 Thor Delano got upfitted to work seamlessly with Ecoflow Delta 3 Pro extra battery package.

Extra 30Amp plug added in the compartment to use the Ecoflow. This plug goes to a new transfer switch to prevent backfeeding.

Also 120v GFI outlet added to charge the Ecoflow when it's not producing power.

800w DC DC alternator charger wired to starter battery.

Stalink Mini mounted to the roof.

Installing 600w on a Grand Design Solitude during a beautiful Florida sunset. Great view from the office! 😍

We were commissioned to upgrade this 2026 5th-Wheel. Original install had some issues and needed a wiring upgrade as well as connection of solar panels to the Victron MPPT charge controller.

Had 2x 220w panels in parallel
3x 360w Rec solar panels in series.
300Ah 12v Renogy LiFePO4 batteries
Victron Orion 50amp DC DC charger
Factory Victron 100/30 Mppt
Furion Chill Cube A/C unit

We installed

Victron 150/85 MPPT Charge Controller
Litime 3000w inverter

Holiday Rambler Vacationer 33C received 6x 215w Calsun panels last week. These panels connected in series were the best fit to charge an Oupes Guardian 6000 power station to power the coach.

Just another day in the ☀️ Sunshine office!

Helped a client finish a rail mounted system with 2200w of Solar on a Class A diesel Coach.

Customer Called in ☎️ "I just bought a Sprinter Van Build and they removed the 48v system!" We replied "send us some photos we got you!"

We installed:

200w x 4 Calsun bifacial panels.
120A 1500w DC /DC charger with 2x 2 guage runs feeding from Alternator
48v Victron Multiplus 3000VA inverter
360w Victron 48v to 12v DC converter
150/35 Victron mppt
Victron 300Ah Smart shunt
Victron Touch 70 screen
Victron Cerbo for local and remote monitoring
3x Eco-worthy Cubix 100Ah 48v LiFePO4 for 15Kwh battery storage.

The batteries alone can run the 48v Nomadic A/C unit for almost 20hrs on high!

With the charging methods we installed, they might never have to pull the shore plug out!

We were happy to help such a nice couple gain energy independence in their beautiful 4x4 build. We even installed an extra outlet next to the counter so they can run a microwave and induction cooktop at the same time.

Starlink and extra 100w solar panel installed on a 2024 Wolf Pack 315. This 4th solar panel gave just enough juice to keep their 400Ah of Lithium charged up while keeping fridge on.

🤔 Is this a Solar Install or Art in Motion 🤗 ???

gave us the opportunity to install 3200w on the roof of their 2024 Keystone Alpine.

We used a Victron 150/85 MPPT charger to handle our 2400w array and a Victron 100/50 MPPT to handle our 800w array with 600w capacity remaining if the client wants to add more panels.

We paired 4x 320Ah Self-Heating Lithium Batteries from Li-Time for 16Kwh of battery storage. The batteries are in 2s 2p. There's enough solar to charge the batteries from 0 to full in one day.

Two Victron 3000VA 24v Multiplus Inverters were installed to power each leg of the split phase system.

A Victron 24v to 12v 80A DC converter is installed to charge a group 51r 12v house battery that handles the surges of the house loads.

The robust Lynx Busbar system was used to keep things tidy and to minimize the change of over-heating connections.

The system reports to a Victron Cerbo GX for remote monitoring and a Touch 70 for real-time information inside the RV.

Spartan soft starts were installed in each of the Coleman Mach 15 A/C units which run about 1300w each.

Keystone left much to be desired in the structure of the storage compartment so we had to make a custom battery box to support thev 250Lb of LiFePO4 bouncing up and down the road. We made it from 2 inch aluminum angle. We added another support beam under the front edge of the frame for more long term rigidity.
