Hi Everybody, new to the forum, looking for some advice on system sizing.
I am from the Missouri Ozarks, and plan to use the bus as an rv on 3 to 4 day trips
Also like the idea of using as a backup when my house electrical goes out
I appreciate you allowing me on the forum and thanks for any advice that you can provide.
Not sure if i did this right, but here is an estimate of my appliances
Was thinking 4 @ 300w 24v panels, a 60 amp mppt charge controller, and 8 @ 6V gc2 230ah batteries,
Not sure what size of inverter to get. was originally looking at a combination inverter charger as the bus will just be a tripper for now, not fulltime.so wanted the potential to charge from shore.
I was also originally looking at running the system 12v, since i have several 12v devices, but not sure on that now.
Anyhow, thanks for any thoughts.
