Victron Solar Generator

This is a nearly full build video of a Victron based, rolling toolbox, 24v solar generator. A higher than average quality build, due to the Victron Charge controller, and Victron inverter, both with Bluetooth monitoring capability, but still came in at right at $550.00. The DIY battery is 18650 based, and can be charged in sub zero temps. The entire system weighed in at 35lbs.

We will be using this for our soon to be completed 2012 Audi Diesel Overland project, (lifted 3") which should be finished in a few weeks. Check out the channel for the Solar system we install on the rooftop 8020 aluminum racking system.
