Yeah someone else posted something similar to that roll out method. I'd love that, especially if like you said, I could figure out a way to make it tilt up once it's out and just face south.
When I'm around camp, it doesn't matter, I can just throw them on top of the rooftop tent. What I'm trying to find is a solution to having solar panels out when I'm hiking for a few days and need to leave my car unattended at the trailhead without my fridge dying.
I guess there's potential room for 2x60W foldable panels instead of one big 100W and using them inside the vehicle instead. That's a possibility. If I have one up the front in the windshield and one in the back window, maybe I would get enough juice overall paired with my battery pack to ensure...
I have definitely considered foldables. The 100W Goal Zero one too (I have a 40% off token to use). That still doesn't solve the issue of being able to find a secure way to fasten it to my vehicle when I'm away from it and not able to supervise though.
It needs to be able to be mounted in such a way that when I go out hiking for a few days, I can leave it on the vehicle and it's not going to be stolen easily. Essentially I need to be able to leave it on the car when I'm not around to supervise. It have no issues if I could just bolt it on the...
I have a 2008 Urban Runner and I'm getting ready to purchase a portable battery solution + solar panel. The issue is, I currently have a CVT Mt Shasta RTT on top of my vehicle, so I can't just mount the sunroof there. I could potentially move the RTT right to the back of the vehicle to make some...
Nope, not me haha. Mine's blizzard pearl white. Oh right you have the V8, that's less as it is, but yeah I figured if I were to beef up mine I'd take a big hit. Would love to get out together sometime!
Absolutely love your setup mate. Fellow Colorado guy here. My 2008 Urbanrunner is still pretty stock unfortunately besides the CVT RTT and awning. Adding my extra battery and solar for the fridge/batteries soon. Everything is so expensive!
May I ask how many miles you usually get on a tank of...
Looking to see if I can fit a Renogy 100W suitcase solar panel + CVT Mt Shasta on top of my 2008 4Runner with the bars that are on there. Any pictures of how you have it set up would be appreciated!
I have an ARB 50 fridge, and I'm about to purchase something like the Arkpak + a roll-up solar panel to power it and my other electronics. I'm trying to find how most of y'all are storing/mounting these kinds of things. I have an 08 UrbanRunner. Would love to add a drawer system too but I have...
Yeah, it tells me the 8020-164 35 but I saw someone else with a 4th gen get the 8003-151 34R and it has more CCA (720 vs 800). Not sure if that matters or not?
Thanks for your information. I was more referring to the size of the Red Top or battery that I should be getting, sorry for the mix up of words. I do a lot of driving around CO and plan in the next couple of years to head up to Alaska and spend more time in the backroads of the SW. I've heard...
