So Florida being the sunshine state is not charging your solar system fast enough? You are getting your Phd in mechanical and electrical engineering Tony. You will work it out, I have faith in you and your determination and persistence. There is nothing more beautiful than a Florida sunrise.

Tony, I could truly sense your frustration and despair. BUT, there was NEVER any doubt in my mind that you would ever “ throw in the towel” on this build. “ Give up” and “quit” are foreign words to you. We all know how exceptional your work ethic is and that is why you are an inspiration to so many. Your first trip with Meatball didn’t go as planned but you did gain a deeper and better understanding of how the monitors etc. in the RV worked. Definitely a positive 👍🏻 Installing security cameras for safety 👍🏻 I couldn’t have imagined a more heartwarming ending to this video, Tony. A successful “overnighter” at the beach, experiencing a breathtaking sunrise together, and watching dear Meatball enjoying a morning run across the sand…..life is good! 🤗❤️❤️😘🐶

Thank you so much for your thoughtful message! I appreciate your confidence and understanding. It’s true, "give up" and "quit" are not in my vocabulary. The first trip had its challenges, but I learned a lot about the RV systems and installed security cameras for safety. Ending the video with a heartwarming sunrise and seeing Meatball enjoy the beach made it all worthwhile. Thanks for being part of the journey!

Our first trip left us shivering in the middle of an empty parking lot during a PA snow storm with no heat. Good memories now. 😎

I've been following you since last year and I'm impressed and entertained by your progress. Nice job overall 👍 Having said that, you need a backup for any electrical system. You have a gas powered engine under the hood which SHOULD be hooked into your campers electrical system to run it and charge the batteries when needed. You should never have to sit in the heat and humidity because your batteries died. Upgrade to either a heavy duty alternator or a second alternator so you will never have any electrical issues again. Bravo, keep it up 👍

Thank you for following my journey and for your kind words! I agree with your advice. After returning home, I discovered that the original order had sent me the wrong fuses. I've actually purchased more solar panels and lithium batteries than I need, so this issue shouldn’t have occurred. I am wired for shore power and an alternator. I’ll have a better handle on things for the next camping trip. Thanks again for the support and suggestions!
