Yeah I was.

Congrats on the hawk.

Yeah I was.

Congrats on the hawk.

I plan to start a build thread. I will go in to much more detail once I get it started.

 

[Finatic Angler]

I look forward to it.

You guys are lucky on the west coast. No FWC used over on this side.

I used a scanstrut on my Northstar. It has worked flawlessly for a couple years and throughout Sierra winters.

BTW, most quality panels have an impact rating for large hailstorms if your worried about a pinecone cracking the panel

Say, what are those mounting brackets you gots there? I like those and need some!

Time to revive this thread! I will second the question of where can those adjustable brackets be found? I’ve been searching with no luck.

They look like brackets from AM Solar. They allow use of tilt bars so you can angle your panels when camping to the sun.

I have used 2 sets of these. One on a SoCal Teardrop trailer and another on a home RV battery charging setup. All aluminum, very light and very strong. They allow variable angle tilting of the panel as well as flat.
