Our solar system set up

[Myrtle]

Since I am on the road (not in the motorhome) I can not add photos directly to this blog but I wanted to give and overview of our solar system.
Excerpt from my blog:
"Today my better half installed the 2 solar panels on Myrtle's roof, which give us 190 watts of free, clean power from the sun. The Carmanah 95 watt solar panels are hooked up to the Magna-sine sinewave inverter and the bank of two 6-volt US Battery brand batteries and it all works! We used a Go Power solar regulator and Magnum Energy remote control. The Magna-sine inverter can also be used as a shore charger to run the 'house' electricity and charge the batteries, if we are hooked up to shore power. All of the interior light bulbs are LED by Philips, which provides great lighting and saves electricity. You can see a roof patch by the panels which covers the old furnace chimney hole. The new furnace that will be installed will vent from the side."

As well here is a detailed magazine write up on our system: http://www.inspiredcamping.com/cool-campsite-essential-solar-energy/

Our system has performed very well. We have never run out of battery power yet. One time when myrtle broke down we charged her engine battery off of her house battery, with a battery charger. Worked great!
