    – Natural earthen plaster walls – American Clay – now with over 5,000 miles traveled
    – 500 watt Solar power system – Two 130 watt flexible panels (High Flex Solar) and one 240 watt adjustable rigid panel.
    – Outback trio of products – a 2000 watt pure sine wave inverter/charger, 60amp charge controller and Mate 2 digital monitor.

We also use a Bogart Trimetric 2025RV battery monitor which tells data like % full, amps coming in or amps being used.
