Solar Powering our HUGE House Truck & a New Solar Blanket | Rv Life NZ

Our RV solar setup is getting a solar upgrade with a brand new solar blanket. Our mobile living family has had some solar issues including having to upgrade old panels on the roof of our massive truck camper and, when we arrived in New Zealand’s South Island for more RV adventures, we discovered the low winter sun isn’t ideal for off-grid solar needs. This is going to be a great solar solution for our motorhome power needs. We receive and demonstrate the blanket and how it will boost our solar input and we show the 2 different ways to install it. We get amazing help from a motorhoming friend who is a bit of an expert when it comes to anything solar or electrical. He helps us with a pre-wire and gives some tips on the type of fuse to use and the type of fuse that people commonly use but should be avoided. We are stoked to have the RV Super Centre partner with us and provide us with a brand-new Sphere 300W Solar Blanket.
