The Campfire Trail: January 23 - DIY Homestead - Remembering Our Homeless Challenge

January 23, 2023

Day 479 of the Adventure

The last day of the Mike and Adreane's visit we spent hooking up a power source to the cabin. Mike has extensive knowledge of solar applications. The previous day, we made a trip to the solar supply store and picked up all the supplies week needed to get power into our cabin. We had been running everything off of a 4,000 watt generator up until this day. The solar set up got the entire property powered up, even though it would still need to be expanded in size at some point down the road. The best part is that we have the Inverter and Charging capacity to grow. We just need to scale the solar panels and battery storage to match the loads. For now......... we have electricity on the property!
