Airstream solar panels.

We also had a 1000 watt pure sine inverter installed to electrify our outlets. Solar pre wires are frequently factored into the design. Upgraded progressive dynamics 1 000 watt inverter on applicable models. The curved roof of the airstream required the manufacturing of custom brackets which we could not have done on our own neither josh nor i am an electrician and frankly we work full time in fast paced chaotic jobs while living full time in the airstream.

We now have 500 watts of solar on top of our airstream five 100 watt solar panels. Connected through our solar charge controller these panels feed our new agm battery bank consisting of 440 ah of juice 220 usable. We understand the modern demands on manufacturing lines and take all aspects into consideration when designing solutions including installation time expandability. Ensuring the panels are clean not partially shaded by trees or other interference will promote solar charging.

We needed the help. Cut the cord to expensive daily shore power hook ups with the 12 volt solar charging system. We offer zamp airstream solar kits ranging in size from 90 watts to 360 watts that s up to 20 amps of charging power per hour. A curved roof requires specialized mounting hardware.

An external battery box limits the size of battery banks or requires the battery bank to be relocated. What s more with all 2019 airstream travel trailers leaving the jackson center ohio manufacturing facility with dedicated solar ready hookups zamp solar s wide array of rooftop and portable solar solutions make it easy for all airstreamers to harness the. If the optional solar package is selected from the factory travel trailers will ship with 2 agm batteries. These zamp airstream solar kits come complete with 3 port roof cap and are designed for easy installation and make adding more solar at a later time easier and more affordable.

Limited roof space requires narrow solar panels. Today zamp solar panels are used in all pre installed airstream solar packages. Never get caught with dead batteries again. We set up this system with expansion in mind so if they find that 400w isn t enough to offset their light dc loads they have the option of using a portable panel and or they could choose to install up to another.

Zamp solar s engineering team wants to solve your real world problems and increase the value of your product. Airstream trailer power systems are unique in several ways. This airstream came with a zamp portable solar panel plug which they wanted to be integrated into the solar system we installed. Airstreams have a unique issue with space on the roof.

When in use plugged in or using the solar battery chargers be sure to turn it to the on position to get full power and. While the basecamp is in storage make sure the battery disconnect switch is in the off position.
