Building Our Totally UNIQUE Off-Grid Fifth Wheel
🤖 Check out the LYMOW One Plus Robotic Lawn Mower here: https://dada.link/vw63esS02E10 - Powering a camper or tiny home doesn’t have to be scary or complicated. In this episode we build a complete 12V and 230V off‑grid system from scratch, using simple, modular parts.We're using two 120Ah lithium batteries (Renogy Pro S1: https://dataaccess.renogy.cn/t/zY) wired in parallel to a 3000W inverter/charger, plus a main isolator switch, fuses and breakers to keep everything safe.This setup can: - Run tools, lights and appliances up to 3000W from a compact battery bank and inverter - Charge from shore power or a generator using the built‑in charger - Charge on the move using a DC‑DC charger from the tow vehicle’s alternator - Be monitored with a single “brain” (Renogy One Core) or app via bluetooth so you can see _exactly_ what’s going onNote: Every system is different and should be designed and checked for your own setup – but if you’re planning your first off‑grid electric system for a camper, RV or tiny house, this should give you a really clear idea of what’s involved and how all the bits fit together.If you’re on a similar road to off‑grid living, we hope this episode makes the electrical side feel a bit less mysterious and a lot more doable!📚 *Chapters* 00:00 Intro 00:30 Organising the system 08:22 Finishing touches on the storage box 12:21 Paintin' time! 20:20 Ok, let's put stuff in 22:05 Fuses, isolator and safety 25:17 Shore power input 29:52 AC and DC output 34:13 Testing the power out=============================🏆 *WIN a LYMOW One Plus Robotic Mower* 🏆 by entering our prize draw at https://raffle.roadtooffgrid.com 🇬🇧 UK Entries only 🇬🇧*🔔 SUBSCRIBE for more updates* 🟠 Road To Off Grid: https://www.youtube.com/@RoadToOffGrid/?sub_confirmation=1 🟢 The Long Road To Off Grid (2nd Channel): https://www.youtube.com/@longroadtooffgrid/?sub_confirmation=1*🙏 Support Us Here!* ✨ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/12765292/join 🛍️ Buy merch: https://shop.roadtooffgrid.com/ ☕ Buy us a coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/roadtooffgrid 💰 PayPal: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/roadtooffgrid 💫 Wishlist: https://www.amazon.co.uk/hz/wishlist/ls/1GYOJOEUOZV20🛒 Amazon Store: https://www.amazon.co.uk/shop/roadtooffgrid Our Amazon shop earns us a little commission on products we trust 💯 We only recommend what truly works!*🤝 Stay Connected With Us:* Discord: https://discord.gg/k77UgekJmv Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/roadtooffgrid Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/roadtooffgrid/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@roadtooffgrid📩 For business enquiries: roadtooffgrid@gmail.com
The Perfect Off-Grid Power System for Any Camper or RV
Exclusive £35-off Carver Mat at https://auraframes.yt.link/GsGzkrm Promo Code RTOGS02E09 - In this episode we build a super‑compact utility cupboard for our tiny house trailer, cramming hydraulics, air suspension and a separate 12V off‑grid power system all into one single box.Inside, we mock up the full setup: Renogy lithium batteries, inverter and DC‑DC charger, plus the hydraulic pump, valve block, air compressor and a custom air‑suspension manifold with gauges for each bag. Pete walks through his Raspberry Pi‑controlled valve block and our plans for app‑controlled air suspension, and talks through how this whole system will support the tiny house trailer.If you’re planning a tiny house trailer or off grid tiny home and you’re wondering just how much gear you can squeeze in, this compact utility cupboard build should give you PLENTY of ideas for a reliable off grid trailer backup system.=============================*🔔 SUBSCRIBE for more updates* 🟠 Road To Off Grid: https://www.youtube.com/@RoadToOffGrid/?sub_confirmation=1 🟢 The Long Road To Off Grid (2nd Channel): https://www.youtube.com/@longroadtooffgrid/?sub_confirmation=1*🙏 Support Us Here!* ✨ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/12765292/join 🛍️ Buy merch: https://shop.roadtooffgrid.com/ ☕ Buy us a coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/roadtooffgrid 💰 PayPal: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/roadtooffgrid 💫 Wishlist: https://www.amazon.co.uk/hz/wishlist/ls/1GYOJOEUOZV20🛒 Amazon Store: https://www.amazon.co.uk/shop/roadtooffgrid Our Amazon shop earns us a little commission on products we trust 💯 We only recommend what truly works!*🤝 Stay Connected With Us:* Discord: https://discord.gg/k77UgekJmv Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/roadtooffgrid Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/roadtooffgrid/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@roadtooffgrid📩 For business enquiries: roadtooffgrid@gmail.com=============================📚 CHAPTERS 00:00 - Intro 00:22 - Utility Cupboard 07:12 - Test fit 08:22 - Hayley’s new toy 10:58 - Mounting 17:06 - Wheel adapter side quest 19:40 - Strength test 20:56 - Tetris 24:14 - Custom air system
