Hi, guys! I've been lurking on Expo for some time, gleening as much info as I can, and dreaming of fantastic voyages like many of you take on a regular basis! A new job opportunity has come my way and I will now pretty much be living an expedition for 5-6 months out of the year! While it is exciting, I am still a bit nervous to put what I have learned here into practice!!
I recently bought an Xventure XV-2 from an ExPo member to use as my base camp. It is equipped with the GZ Yeti 400 and I am trying to find a way to increase my AH capacity. It seems like I may only be able to daisy chain more GZ products to it but I was wondering if any of you guys have added other batteries to a GZ system and had any success with it, or utter failures. I really know very little about 12V systems so any info would be a HUGE help, as usual!
My total power demand is still in question but I am running an ARB fridge, some LED lights, and mostly charging batteries, devices, etc. I am getting a generator as a back up but I would like to eventually have a solar system capable of supporting my needs, whatever they are.
Thank you all in advance!
Dave
