Bruce, Nice set-up. What are the two small handles along your roof molding for? Danny

Thanks. The loops are for the awning.


We had a tailgate awning for the truck and it works pretty good for the trailer as well.

Mike and Bruce have the same thought as I do on the Solar setup. K.I.S.S. method is really the best. Battery,charge/controler/conditioner,solar panel and if you have 120v A.C. ( hosehold power ) an 120V A.C. inverter from the battery. What you feel confortable in maintaining all the above sub-systems. The IMPORTANT part is FUSING at the battery ( BOTH TERMINALS ) and each circuit that connect to each other ( with the correct size fuse AMPERAGE and VOLTAGE RATING ). The reason to fuse at both terminal of the battery is if either wire ( by accident touched the other terminal then it would be fused and would protect you from a melt down ) as close to the terminal as resonable.
