The Road Abode's video: How to Wire a Simple Off-grid Solar Power System

@How to Wire a Simple Off-grid Solar Power System
In this video we teach you how to hook up a basic 12V off-grid electrical system powered by solar. We use this system in our converted camper van and it has given us so much freedom traveling on the road being independent of "the grid." The general information in this video can be used for many other applications as well though not only if you live in a van or RV. We wanted to make going off-grid easy enough for anyone to do it themselves with no experience required! Shortcuts to Each Part in the Video: Connecting battery to charge controller - 01:19 Connecting solar panel to charge controller - 08:38 Connecting fuse panel to charge controller - 12:24 Connecting outlets/appliances to charge controller - 15:07 Installing an in-line fuse - 19:25 Links for all the components and tools from the video: 100W Solar Panel: http://amzn.to/2fuAM9g Solar Cable: http://amzn.to/2erTxsQ Charge Controller: http://amzn.to/2eCdznW 100ah 12V Battery: http://amzn.to/2eCdCA8 6-circuit Fuse Panel: http://amzn.to/2fuzoTN 12V Outlets: https://amzn.to/2NzCE5Q 10 AWG Stranded Wire: http://amzn.to/2eC9W1e Ratchet Socket Set: http://amzn.to/2inxSFO ATC Blade Fuses: http://amzn.to/2fuDSdl 12-10 AWG Spade Terminals: http://amzn.to/2fuACP4 12V Outlet Terminals: https://amzn.to/2zovzwq Wire Strippers: http://amzn.to/2erWGsA Parallel Connectors: https://amzn.to/2DkOrjX Inline Fuse Holders: https://amzn.to/2xJ2Ksz 30A ATC Blade Fuses: https://amzn.to/2zoeQt1 You can follow us on INSTAGRAM for frequent photo updates: https://www.instagram.com/theroadabode/ CREDITS Thanks My Girl My Whiskey and Me for our outro song!
