Yessssss! Solar is done and charging everything great.

2 day test ran the empty ARB fridge and the solar panel kept everything nice and topped off. Super excited!

I am going to be wokring on the truck this weekend and will get some photos up then.

Sounds perfect, a 100W panel & fridge was what I was hoping to run (though without the sweet AGM battery.) What kind of charge controller are you using with the solar panel?

Im using the Windy Nation charge controller, this one here

Couple it with a Stinger battery isolator, couple circuit breakers and some random other bits and it is a really solid system.

Updates!

Solar panel is kicking out the jams right now, major love to my buddy over at https://www.offthegridcamper.com/ for the help on this one.

Renoloy 100W panel
West Marine 105 aH AGM battery

Second battery is tied to the solar panel and the main alternator via an isolator. So far I love the setup.

@Subspd - I am not, yet. Its on the list and I debate adding lockers but since i didnt get around to it when I had a job and now I have no income, so...

Probably wont happen right now, but it may when we get back into the states and get some income again.
