Yea I have some 12/2 wire to run 3 recepticals for small stuff and 2 light switches, one with dimmer for 5 puck style led's.
This is what I think I need:
A inverter /charger for converting the solar to be stored in batteries.
A couple batteries. (Don't know how many or what volt,help?)
2 or 3 solar panels
A breaker box like defjr333 linked to.
Maybe a 50 amp plug on the outside or maybe underneath with some really heavy gauge wire. If this goes to a breaker box, do i need a surge protector?
I need to draw out some plans to see what this should look like linked together and let yall comment on it.
Ive managed to insulate the the back half of the trailer and the ramp door, which im so happy didn't require Loving with the ramp springs or wires. Sealed up gaps with some blue label non expanding great stuff foam, which I thought was pretty cool as its designed to be used on sensitive gaps...huh huh huh. The screws used to hold all the plywood in are just self tapping screws that are easy to remove, not like some rivet hybrids Ive heard awful stories about. Taped up the gaps with some gorilla tape and a little HD duct tape.
Everything has gone fine with as little time as I have to mess with it, but I needs to get this electrical out so I can finish the insulation job with 1in rigid rmax insulation on the walls and the 1/2 insulation on ceiling. Then ill put some luaun on the ceiling and some foam interlocking mats on the floor. I also just got my 10 in memory foam queen size mattress in today that I need a vented bottom frame design, if yall got any ideas fire away, this is the main point of the trailer is the bed so I want it done right.
