Easy How-To DIY Solar Power of my ENTIRE Sailboat
This is a simple video explaining how I make, store and use 12v DC & 120v AC electricity on my sailboat. I often stay anchored out in remote areas for two to three weeks at a time. The solar panels require practically no maintenance, and are silent(unlike wind turbines and generators). This setup makes for a happy life living in some of the most beautiful and remote places in the world! The basic steps are simple: Sunshine, solar panels, solar charge controller, batteries, 12v DC panels and then loads. Or from the 12v DC batteries to the inverter, 120v AC power to the 120v panel, their respective loads. There are many more smaller parts like wires, lugs, dielectric grease and much much more. But this video will give you a basic understanding of how I produce power while sailing and living far off the grid.
