We’ve developed two solar-powered systems that are a good fit for most clients looking to boondock with a classic Airstream travel trailer. These Airstream solar system packages are customizable to fit your specific needs, or we’ll work with you to create a completely custom system.
Both systems provide 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.). The larger your system’s battery bank, the more power you’ll have to use. The more solar you have, the faster you can recharge your battery bank.

Optional Additions & Upgrades for Airstream Solar System Packages
All the following additions can be added to any of our systems. Prices do not include labor.
Additional 300Ah 12V V2 Big Beard Battery (Heated & Bluetooth) | $1699 each
Beef up your battery bank with an additional battery or two! Each additional battery adds 3,840Wh to your system total.
15.5″ L x 7.5″ W x 12.25″ H
Additional Micro-Air EasyStart | $299 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.
Smaller Touch Screen | -$100
Victron makes a touch screen smaller than the Touch 70, called the Touch 50. All functionality is the same in both models.
Touch 50 Dimensions: 3.4″ high x 5″ wide
Touch 70 Dimensions: 4.4″ high x 6.9″ wide
*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.
