My bad, not sure why I didn't see this! The first pic is the front of the camper and shows the bugs stuck to it. Second pic is some staining from run off from the roof. Third pic is my poor job of not taping the windows. It's holding up well with no leaks and improved air infiltration. I'm...

Just looking for any experiences with Next Jump Outfitters out of Tacoma, WA if anyone has dealt with them. They're close to me and I've been looking for an aluminum flatbed for my long bed silverado 2500. I like the apparent simplicity of theirs but couldn't find anything on here about them...

I used herculiner on my Lance 815. It had a bunch of roof leaks that were mostly self inflicted and I was fed up trying to track them down. I did the whole camper with it and it stopped the leaks of course and also seemed to help with air infiltration and keeps it a lot warmer in there. I had...

Great looking setup. I have a similar setup with a 2002 815. Do you figure that the Froli system is worth it? I've tried a few things and have some mat spacers from Lowe's but it doesn't seem to do much. How high does it raise you? Also, where did you find the Lance centering wedges? I looked...

I have an older lance 815 and it's been pretty great. Weight is listed at 1620 but still feels heavy when it's totally loaded up. It's tall so gets a lot of branches but I just took it to north glacier and went on all of the roads up there. Camped outside of glacier and did a hill climb that...

I also tried the smaller flexible panels listed above with the same result.

Thanks all for the responses. I've settled on getting a second controller for the small panels so only similar panels will be grouped together. I've wired two of the mighty max panels together in series and open circuit is 48-50v. As soon as I hook those panels to the controller the voltage on...

Great info, thank you.

So how would one determine how many panels to hook up to a particular controller if nominal voltage differs from the actual panel voltage? My controller is 100/30 and if wired in series my panels would exceed this but not while calculating using nominal voltage ratings from the manufacturer. Do...

Ah, thanks both. Is that 22 or 23v pretty standard for a 100w panel? I'll look into what works best with a hybrid arrangement.

I'm working on a solar setup for my Lance pickup camper. I thought I had it figured out but today I was ready to hook up and saw a voltage reading that didn't make sense to me. Here's my parts list: 4 of these panels...

Haven't been on the forum in ages. Found thenewx.org and have been using that since I got the Xterra. Name on there is Afghanski if you want to search through posts for work done. http://www.thenewx.org/forum/member.php?u=14485 Thanks for looking! Clear title. Located in Las Vegas. $8000 obo...

Touché sir
