Last spring I performed a major Solar Power upgrade on the Airstream. I added 405 watts of solar panels and a solar charge controller to recharge our batteries and extend our boondocking options. When we arrived in Idaho at my brother’s place last May, I began the second phase of that upgrade. I put in larger batteries,…

Thanks! I’m using an app called KineMaster on my phone. I’ve discovered that it is much faster and easier to make videos if I can do it without the computer.
