1000W RV Solar System
All RV’s – Motorhomes, Fifth Wheels, Travel Trailers, Toy Haulers, and more!
This is our most common system – it’s perfect for two people looking to get off-grid, or who want the convenience of a hybrid solar system. It’ll power everything in most RV’s, so long as the weather is fair and air conditioning is not required for extended periods of time. This system is customizable to fit your specific boondocking needs, or we’ll work with you to create a completely custom system.
The 1000W RV Solar System provides plenty of energy to run normal 12V DC electronics (lights, vent fans, USB outlets, etc.) and small 120V AC electronics (phones, laptops, TVs, etc.) for a very long time, as well as moderate use of larger appliances (air conditioners, microwaves, hair dryers, etc.). Check out our Frequently Asked Questions for additional general information!
If you want the convenience of a bigger system, check out our 2000 Watt System.

Micro-Air EasyStart | $450 per A/C
If you want to run your air conditioning off of solar via your inverter, you will need an EasyStart in order to lessen the initial energy draw of the A/C. Without one, you will likely damage your inverter over time.

FAQ’s
Will this package work in my RV?
We can typically fit the 1000W package into most RV’s. If you have a smaller RV (30 feet or less) and/or have limited roof space be sure to let us know so we can conduct a consultation.
Will it power the roof air conditioner?
The 1000W system can power a single A/C for approximately 6 hours, making it ideal for cooling off in the middle of the day or while you’re at a rest stop making lunch on a travel day. A good rule of thumb is 45 minutes per 100Ah in the battery bank. So if you’re looking to power an A/C longer, you can always add more batteries!
What if the 460Ah lithium batteries don’t fit in my rig?
If two 460Ah lithium batteries aren’t the best fit for your rig, don’t worry! We will substitute the large batteries for smaller ones, depending on your specific needs.
*Price is for a typical installation: It’s rare, however some RV’s require additional customization, wire, and/or labor. If additional parts and/or labor are needed we will notify the customer as soon as we know.
