Our Big Beard Battery Installation completed. We can officially live off grid with state of the art solar system. We have made some huge upgrades but this is one of the top notch additions. Thank you to a wonderful family owned business in the heart of Texas. We suggest if interested to call or email directly. At the end of the video we run into a situation that leaves me speechless! Thank you for watching and yes the end will be explained with an interesting outcome.
What a soler system y'all have . Enjoy the journey
Thank you!
Wow! Wow! What an awesome setup. You have got to give some specs. I believe you said 900AH in lithium batteries. Welcome to the club. After we boondocked one time with our lead acid batteries, the first thing we did was to upgrade to a 400AH lithium battery and upgraded our solar charge controller. It cost us but we have no regrets. On our 2024 summer road trip, we went 13 days straight on battery (got down to 25%) and we only have a 100 watt solar panel (no generator). Our rig is much smaller than yours and we rarely use the AC. When on battery, power management is a must. No keeping on unused sources of power draw. Looking forward to seeing you all go on an extended boondocking journey. Safe Travels!
Thank you for sharing we are excited and agree battery power management is a must to get down now. Appreciate you watching more to come
@@AdventureBandits1 Are you new batteries 12, 24 or 48Volts. What is the size of your inverters? Thanks.
Our whole RV lifestyle changed with solar and batteries. Total freedom. We are 5 years in and have so many memories that would not have been possible without. 🎉
I’m so glad to hear that. I’m looking forward to the freedom as well.
Congratulations on the solar setup. 🤩 That’s impressive. Hoping everything is okay with the smoke situation in the rig! 😳🫣 Safe travels to yall.
Thank you we are extremely impressed with the system. The fire/smoke worked out but an important message or life changing experience.
Love your show guys peace and blessings
Awesome ❤
That was a wonderful family business experience you guys. Thanks for sharing valued information. Blessings on Blessings💜😇🙏🏽💕
We appreciate you, the family was amazing and we are very grateful. Thanks for your support
Congratulations, that's awesome!!!!
Thank you! We are so excited!
That system is so darn impressive !! What a beautiful install too.
I’m so happy for you guys !! This is totally on my wish list someday. That ending though 😮 - safe travels !!
Agree and thank you we are very excited.
That battery bank is awesome!🔋
Thank you we are excited about it
Great job!, you guys are all set to head out west.
Making the plans for West we need one if you have suggestions please email us adventurebandits1@gmail.com
So many more camping 🏕 options! Congratulations!
Agree so so many we are excited 🎉
Love your channel but the wife and I are waiting for the next video since it has some possible drama with that smoke coming out! Hope there isn't any electrical issues, looks like a issue with a tire or wheel hub???🤔
Be careful at those rest stops. God bless you two and stay safe. Can't wait for the GlampOut! I might do another song for you guys. 😁💜
We plan on calling you in another week. We always google for crimes but agree we have to be careful for sure. Thanks friend
Very nice set up Bandits. I'm currently sitting in the desert in Quartzsite, Arizona on BLM land. Living completely off grid with my 2100 Watt Solar Array and 1000ah Lithium Battery bank. Have been boondocking currently for 21 days with ZERO hookups. This is what you will be able to do with your system if you chose to.
Wow! We are ready for it and excited.
Thanks for sharing this will help those of us who’d like to get in the solar game 🎉🎉
We’re glad you found it helpful!
You both are our pioneers and are blazing the trails and I’m happy for you guys. ❤
I have one solar panel the only thing I use it for is letting the slide in and out and using the power jack, needles to say I can still use the lights inside but not the air conditioning. I can say Solar is more than handy it’s a way to sustain sufficiently. If one wants to live off grid and can afford a package as such yourselves I say hands down I believe that’s the way to go.
With the panels and batteries how many pounds did you add?
Aweee thank you!
We added 500 more pounds to the unit.
@ ok thank you, you did say it but I didn’t know if that meant the panels as well.
@@AdventureswithVal we will check to make sure we want to make sure we give out accurate information.
You guys are finally going off grid my idea about the free camping. I told you that before I ask about about that I’m glad you guys are finally doing it. It’ll be exciting to watch it and also good job in RV unplugged.
❤ Yes we listen trust me. Thanks for encouragement on RV Unplugged.. it would be nice to see how we would do now or what would change with our new set up and upgrades 🎉
So cool..u will be so happy with going boondocking. I'm doing it now in Quartzsite, Az since the 8th of the month. I only have 1 200ah lithium battery and a 2000 wtt inverter in my 93 Dodge Roadtrek V 190 and I also have a diesel heater and Im a newbie to all this too. I'm gonna be doing this vanlife more now with this campervan even in Michigan warm or hot temperatures. Im just gonna have to charge when the weather is bad, my batteries stay at 13.3 to 14.3 with sun. I love it.❤
Enjoy your stay at Quartzite. We will be waiting your videos.
@@AdventureBandits1 Some of the video's are already out
I love the setup and location. It looks amazing. This product and video get a five-heart Prince review. 💜💜💜💜💜
Thank you Jose and Shelly. We are excited and feel us getting this solar will set us up for some bigger distance trips.
Enjoyed the video family be safe 🙏🏿
Thank you
You guys are now ready for full time RV. 😊
I would love too do some months on the road. Have a few more years so making plans
Stay tuned
Power for days! Nice!
Yes power for days we plan to maximize all the power we can get.
Looks awesome! A large system, beautiful. Our solar is used for boon docking. And it’s great. We never worry about being short of power. The other advantage is we don’t have to hook up a land line when we storing it. It just takes care of it self. Even in the carport. Great program. You’re going to love it!
Thank you we are excited and feel it gives us so many options.
Yes Yes!!! Bandits are REALLY READY for an ADVENTURE!!! Happy for you all and we can hit the road out west! We got solar and lithium installed after the RV Unplugged Finale Rally. We have 3200watts of solar on the roof, and 400ah of lithium on a 48v system. We are able to run everything on our setup for a little while. We have used it at Harvest Hosts, and did a little FREE Boondocking down at the Istokpoga Water Management Area in Florida. We plan on going to the Texas Coast, Arizona, Colorado, Utah, and wherever else the winds take us.
Wow that’s some set up. We will hit Texas again but making plans for West. If everything works out we hope to make some final adjustments soon then here we come skies the limit.
Very nice system! We live boondocking and plan to do it much more when Mike retires!
@@ThoseWhoGlampTogether How exciting it’s a game changer and you both will love it
This will open up all those non electric sites at state parks. Nice job.
@@BikesBoatsBivouacs 100% agree and it’s one of the goals we shared when we had a consolation with Todd from Big Beard. They heard our need and answered with a solution.
I guess the question that we all have with "Solar" is, is the cost worth it? I know that asking how much someone paid for something is an awkward and personal question, but I think knowing how much solar you guys got and how much the total cost was would help people make the decision for themselves if the cost for solar is worth it or not. Great video. Thanks for sharing!
@scottmichaels12 I researched a similar solar set it was about 15-20 k it’s super nice but if you’re not doing a considerable amount of off grid camping the size weight and complexity may not be economically feasible for most I personally thought about it for my unit but I spend 95% at a hookup site the other 5% would be overnight rest during transit on upcoming transcontinental travel
nice i like that set up thanks for sharing
Thank you 🎉
Hello there from Cali 🤗🐕🦺🐩🦮🐕🦺🦮
Thank you for your support
Ashanti I love that Baltimore Orioles shirt you have on. Let’s go O’s😂
Awwwee thank you my brothers and I went to a game and they were pretty good. Beautiful stadium.
Amazing setup guys. The elephant in the room: what was the cost. I am sure many want to know.
If entertaining a system such as this one it will cost over 10k or more perhaps.. We suggest that you call Big Bearss or email because they have different price points based on need.
Watching 👀
Hope you enjoy it!
Another phenomenal video! I hope everything is ok with that smoke coming from the back end at the end ofnthe video
Be sure to catch the next video. Things are not ok.
🙏🏾👍🏾
@@oconnellwhite370 thank you
You got that ford 😂, Come on join us and get a Ram truck😊 !!
Right the Ram life lol
💯
We bought that Ram life!! Happy camping ❤😊
@@girlsluvhemis2 lol ❤
@@naturalcurls1513 back at you ❤
Use sound pads liner that the use in cars to help with sound
Very cool idea never thought of that so thank you. Appreciate your support 🎉
Don’t they need area where air can get to them just keep them cool, do they generate heat also.
Yes they put made an opening for air and a fan to ensure the temperature is down to prevent trapped heat as well another fan was placed to draw heat out . Thanks for watching. ❤
👍🏼
@@GracefullyMissJC thank you
OMG....THE END!?!?!? WTF!!!! 😬😲
I know 😢
Just thinking you did all that for 1 day of off grid camping? 🤔
@@bayareareefs8616 noooo I'm able to go days off Grid. I also have a generator which can recharge the batteries as well.
@ o ok that’s good I thought it was just drained in a day
@@AdventureBandits1 can you guys do a more intensive video on the generator and how the system works ?
My solar panels are plugged into my 30-watt Jackery.
Nice it gets you out ❤ thanks for watching
put it on or near the porch… I think teslas batteries that can recharge while you’re at a RV park or use generator
@@CarlaRFowler hmmm did not know that thanks for the information.
batteries catch fire… there’s no way I would put it under my bed… and your body heat will reduce the ventilation!!!
@@CarlaRFowler so no one should get solar ?
Have you been to Hawaii yet.
No would love to go and on the bucket list
@AdventureBandits1 got to fly there rental car what when did before 2001 tragedy two many kid's now why we don't go there now
Turn down the music so we can hear you please
Thank you for the feedback ❤
I meant to ask on the previous Vlog, did you say that you had to “twerk” your body?😜
LOL 😂 yes he did say that and it was funny to watch. I think he menat shimmy his body. 😂
