ToggleChoosing an effective caravan solar system is actually much easier than you may think. In fact, solar energy is a wonderful option when caravaning or camping. It gives you the conveniences you have at home with energy as needed, but without relying on grid power. This means that you can head out to the most remote areas with your caravan and still enjoy the conveniences of energy as and when you need it.
There are a few things you will want to focus on with the first being identifying what appliances you will need to be running from the panel. Obviously the more appliances, the more power you are going to need. Appliances can be anything from your fridge to your television to any fans or heating you may use to make the caravan comfortable when enjoying the great outdoors.
Your next thing you will want to identify is the power usage of each of the items you intend to be using or add to your caravan. Check the specifications of your fridge, television and any other electrical appliances, maybe a stove, see what each one draws and then keep a note. This will help you identify what caravan solar solution you will need to ensure you enjoy your caravaning experience at all times.

The final big decision you are going to need to identify is approximately how many hours of sunlight you think your caravan will be exposed to each and every day. Remember the caravan solar panels attach to the roof of the caravan, so while you drive they soak up the energy and store it in the batteries. Knowing approximate hours of sunlight can ensure the battery you choose will charge fully so you can enjoy hours of energy as and when needed.
