Hi everyone,
Just bought myself a 89 Dodge Ram Van Conversion. I love it.
As you probably realise it is a bit limited on storage space.
This is where my questions begin.
Power
Power wise, I realise I am going to need an inverter. I need to run mainly my Laptop and external harddrive, possibly at times a microwave.
Now I have read some forums that suggest the golf cart 6v batteries are best, so I feel these I will get.
My only problem is where to house the them - Any suggestions?
Also if I was to get 2 what size inverter would I be able to run?
or if I got 3 what size inverter would I be able to run?
Is there a way to calculate the drain on the batteries over night?
Then to keep them charged would a solar system be sufficant? or what size would be required?
Is there a site that explains simply (maybe even diagrams) how to set up such a system?
Storage
I would like to buy one of those roof containers, but I need one long enough to store my snow skis.
Any suggestions as to where to get a good deal, and what brands are available?
Well I think that is all the questions I have for now. I am sure I will have more.
Have a good one
Thanks
