  • Advice needed for my 1984 Camper

    Hey everyone

    I just am looking for some advice really. I've just started my trip to Australia and bought a van with a solar set up in it already.
    The problem I have is the solar panel on the roof is tiny and does not provide enough charge to allow me to use everything in the van.

    The ideal situation would be to just buy a bigger solar panel and attach it to this system. I had a friend of a friend look at it and they said it would be like $1,000 to get a full system put in. and I though that was a little steep.

    The system is working at the moment (well the charge light is on), from my workings I will probably need a new charge controller and a new panel. but If anyone could help me with some advice on what to get that would be amazing.

    I really don't want to have to spend a fortune on getting a whole new system put in.

    Links to the set up currently:

    No that would be a down payment.
