DIY Skoolie Solar Rack | The Quest for POWER!

[@liferedesigned]

Now THAT is a lot of power! Love the layout with space to walk / work in between. Nice job!

[@bigfamilyexpedition]

Thanks, I probably spent more time thinking about the layout than I should have lol.

[@MattsGarage1791]

Roadtrip - with the kiddos!!

[@bigfamilyexpedition]

Yes sir, they enjoyed it and were good company.

[@mythoughtsonfaith1031]

Looks like a start, it will be interesting to see the solar finished.

[@bigfamilyexpedition]

Yes, the solar power will be a game changer for sure.

[@8beef4dinner]

[@kiwiman627]

This ain't no ordinary bus, once everything is done it will look amazing! Using solar panels was a good idea. 👍

[@bigfamilyexpedition]

Thanks Kiwiman, the solar panels will allow us a lot more flexibility with where we can stay.

[@theadventuresofkennydebbie]

[@8beef4dinner]

​@@bigfamilyexpeditionIt takes one to know one!

[@MattAK]

Powah! One great thing about buses is you can put a ton of solar on them.

[@bigfamilyexpedition]

Yes, I could have put 2 more up there, but I have other ideas for that space 😉

[@matthewsbushcraft]

Bilbo going on an adventure... Seems about right. BFE going on an adventure for power... Seems about right, too. Good video.

[@bigfamilyexpedition]

Adventures are the best!

[@hajways]

Solar energy is the way to go. Good job on that installation my friend

[@bigfamilyexpedition]

Thank you, we love the solar so far.

So nice you have a friend that is knowledgeable in installing solar panels and is willing to help! That is going to make it really nice to boon dock. - Michelle

[@bigfamilyexpedition]

Thank you! Yes, this will make boondocking much nicer! We are so thankful for our amazing friends! ❤️

[@rvfamilylife]

That's a long drive for some welding, but I totally get it. Knowing the tech working on your stuff is always nice. And shoot, when in Texas I can't seem to ever find a welder to come to me.

[@bigfamilyexpedition]

It was worth the drive for sure. Welders are in demand everywhere it seems.

[@LivinLargewithLCruu]

what a fun trip to take the boys on! I really want to learn more about solar energy and make the switch...tough to do as a renter lol but someday!

[@bigfamilyexpedition]

@@LivinLargewithLCruu It was a fun trip! Renting definitely makes it hard, but you'll get there one day for sure! Thanks for watching! ❤️

[@drivingdaily582]
