Nice project, I like what you're doing with the electronics. I want to see the test with the full solar capacity installed.

When are you going to upgrade the truck charging system?

Talk about jacking it...
I picked up a porta power a few years ago, the low profile bottle jacks are a lifesaver sometimes. Unfortunately the pump is completely shot now, I was thinking about piecing together an electric system like the hydraulic crimpers run off of.

I might have missed it earlier in the thread but do you have a sketch of the planned final rooftop layout? You only had the stinkpipe, AC, and vents to work around so you should be able to get some good wattage up there.

I wanted to try doing something similar with a truck camper but they're kinda hard to come by around me, besides I'd probably end up with a project like this but run out of patience then time well before you. The thing looks almost finished.

drat that looks good, and the sky isn't red anymore. I really want to check it out next time work drags me out that way and its safe to do so.
