Hah! Tell me about it. I went to plug the fridge in and realized I didn't account for the plug location on the metal slider and it was blocked. So I have to cut that out.

I plan on having all the interior and exterior light circuits on wireless RF switches. I need to figure out how to wire those in. Of course they didn't come with instructions.

I got a pair of 4bs cylinder brackets for my propane tank. They fit perfectly, just need to design a way to mount it to the tongue. Meeting my metal guy this afternoon to come up with a solution.

What's that, a 30# tank?

Yahoo!! Wireless light switch worked first try!

Interior lights are boring so I installed one of my cool cargo lights first.

I have ramp lights very similar to those. 18w each led's. Amazingly bright! Those I wired to a relay and then to reverse lights of tow vehicle, and also a rocker sw. just inside ramp door. I do have LED string lights inside that are on a rocker sw. and RF controller that dims, on/off. It also has effects but I'm pretty sure they cause seizures, NOT for me.

Back from a week of work traveling. Checked in the MPPT history and the batteries are floating very nicely with consistent voltage peaks daily in storage mode without a load. Just plugged the fridge in for first time to test power consumption over 24 hours

Glad to hear things are working out nicely with your history data. I look forward to hearing about the results after you collect more data from running your refrigerator.

The fridge is awesome. Silent and efficient. Set to 32 degrees and very little power consumption over 24 hours. Very rarely cycles on (of course I wasn't opening it frequently). Easily handled by the sun.

Tackled the second window today. Still sucked but went smoother than the first. Glad my friend was able to help, it's definitely a two person job. Glad to have all the walls back up!

Cheers

Here's the proof. Batteries are floating at 1pm. Fridge has been on for 48 hours straight

Nice!!

Snuck in a couple hours for odds and ends. Fridge power cord management for the slider works well with a small cable reel off Amazon. Prepping for water tank hold down with some brackets. The green tank will be removable gray water

Cheers

Man that looks good! Great idea on the power cord retraction.

Thanks! Fun to take a break from the big projects to work on little details.

Prepped all my RF switches. Nice to be able to work on some stuff in the house!

Didnt post it but I got this snap-on toolbox for a steal locally on Craigslist a couple weeks ago. Today my welder just sent me a pic of the bracket he made for my propane tank.
