The Easiest Way to Hook up Solar Panels to Your RV Batteries
Before we jump into how to hook up solar panels to your RV batteries, let''s first quickly calculate the size of the solar panel (s) you''ll need to charge your batteries and power
An inverter is needed if you want to use your RV's solar panels to power AC appliances and devices. Solar panels produce DC (direct current) power, and most household appliances require AC (alternating current) power. An inverter converts the DC power from the solar panels to AC power for use in your RV.
Having a robust off-grid power system in your rig will give you the flexibility and confidence to camp anywhere! Putting solar on your RV is simpler than it sounds: panels capture sunlight, a controller manages the charging, batteries store the power, and an inverter (if you need AC) converts it back to 110V.
By pairing your solar charging system with a power inverter, you can convert the DC power generated by solar to household AC (alternating current) power, to run your RV lights and appliances. Sizing the right inverter for your RV is easy. Click here to learn how to size a power inverter for your RV.
