Learn about Solar

[inthralled]

I have a 2008 25' Safari RB. I would like to add Solar. I know nothing about solar and would like to learn. Can anyone point me to a site where I can start learning? Solar 101 for beginners or something like that.
Thanks,
jt

If you have the patience to read all of his opinions, you can learn a bunch from this guy. Just look past his grumpiness…

Although this fella is more into van builds, the solar stuff still applies, has a LOT of videos to go through on various components, etc.:

His name is Nate Yarborough. His basic electrical series starts with things like how to crimp a wire and what tools you will need. I found his stuff extremely helpful. Understanding the proper way to do some basic procedures will prevent future problems down the road.

The series continues through some much more advanced subjects. He is a very good natural teacher.
