Greetings -
Later this year I will be implementing this project to our 2021 Imagine 22MLE. I've been learning from explorist.life, and essentially, I like their system using Victron equipment. Looking for any advice and some opinions regarding gear tradeoffs and answers to the following:
- my camper is pretty simple. Typical loads, except 110v fridge. (with propane option, but would like to run on electrics as much as possible)
- planning 800 watt solar, 3KVA inverter, and would like to go with one Battleborn 270 ah battery.
- want to run single air conditioner only when good sun is available (plan on using a soft start mod)
- plan to install DC to DC charger
- calculating average of 300 amp hours consumption a day
Questions:
- is the Cerbo GX monitor display worth the extra cost? (Planning on the Victron BMV-712 monitor)
- is the 270 ah BB enough?
- is BB Battery worth the money? I see options like Renogy and others. What are the tradeoffs?
- new trends in solar panels worth considering?
Thanks for any input.
