Motorhome DIY Solar Upgrade (UK). Part 1. Step by step. If I can do it, so can you!

Описание к видео Motorhome DIY Solar Upgrade (UK). Part 1. Step by step. If I can do it, so can you!

Two-part VLOG showcasing our Motorhome solar panel upgrade from 100w to 300w. We have an Elddis Accordo 125 (6m) Motorhome and space on the roof is at a premium. To this end we have had to buy solar panels of a non-standard size. These are narrow and longer than standard panels but fit perfectly on our roof top. We purchased them from Sunstore Solar.
I would describe us as novice, solar installers and have learnt all our skills from other YouTube videos. With a bit of attention to detail and lots of research there's no reason why anyone with a few general DIY skills and a small amount of electrical theory (all of which can be found on-line) can't do the same as us.
