Solar Panels & Generators: Upgrading Our RV Power Setup
After our boondocking attempts last week, Steve decided to upgrade our off-grid capabilities. We already have several smaller USB battery packs for charging various things and a small EcoFlow portable power station (which worked great to watch TV at night). In an effort to save our house batteries for the important things like our refrigerator, cooking and using the roof fans, Steve purchased a portable solar panel to allow us to recharge our smaller battery packs. And while our new truck has a built in 2kw generator using it means running the engine which is sitting there burning diesel. Works well when you need to make a run to the ice cream shop though!
The EcoFlow RIVER 3 Plus portable power station delivers a steady 600W and surges to 1200W with X-Boost. It features 7 outlets—including 3 UPS-supported AC, 2 USB-A, a high-speed USB-C, and a car charger output—to power all your family's devices. Plus, the built-in light ensures you're never left in the dark
