๐ŸŒž Running AIR CONDITIONING Off The SUN?! (Part 2 of Our Off-Grid Solar Boat Build) In todayโ€™s episode, weโ€™re diving deeper into our mission to run air conditioning completely off solar and lithium batteries โ€” even through the night, on a sailboat! Last time, we planned out the system, mounted our inverter, and ran more wire than I ever thought possible. This time, itโ€™s chaos (again): weโ€™re ripping off old solar panels, installing our new 120W array, wiring up fresh Epoch batteries, and โ€” of course โ€” surviving a few minor disasters along the way (including one involving stitches ๐Ÿ˜ฌ). From power tools to panic attacks, this project has it all โ€” and by the end, weโ€™re one step closer to finally running our AC off nothing but sunshine โ˜€๏ธโšก๏ธ ๐ŸŽฅ In this video: Removing the old, cracked solar panels (and all the glass ๐Ÿ’ฅ) Installing new high-efficiency 120W panels Wiring, programming, and syncing our Epoch lithium batteries Overcoming a few... bloody setbacks Prepping for off-grid, full-time sailing life If you love DIY builds, boat life, renewable energy, or just watching someone learn the hard way โ€” youโ€™re gonna want to hit Subscribe and turn on the bell ๐Ÿ”” because this is only Part 2 of the journey. The next episode gets even wilder. ๐Ÿ‘‡ Drop a comment below: Would you ever try to live fully off solar power โ€” or is this just too crazy?
