Well done Ian. I will have to visit you for my next house project.

Hi Ian,
I am from India. Good to know that you are settling there.
Using solar power is a brilliant idea!
Hope there is enough sunlight than in UK.
You did everything by yourself?
Nicely done. I’ve been using the same charge controller in my RV travel trailer for a couple of years, just installed that same MT-50 remote meter this past weekend. A lot of your handy work looks very familiar! Wish you could pump some of that water to California though, we’re parched.

Hi Wade,
Good to hear from you. I’m really happy with the controller, and the MT50.
The other little meter that is attached to the battery via a shunt is great, and gives a pretty accurate reading of how full the battery is. It’s a cheap Chinese one that only cost about $30.
We had a massive downpour yesterday, and our underground tank is almost full to overflowing. I wish I could send you some.
Cheers,
Ian
This article was so informative and nice thanks for sharing that the solar system is now powering everything, including charging e-bikes. Hope to see this type of more articles in the future.

“Thanks for sharing your experience! It’s great to hear about your setup with the charge controller and the MT-50 remote meter—I’ve been considering that for my RV too. I totally relate to the need for some extra water, especially with how dry it is in California right now. Here’s hoping for some relief soon! Keep up the great work!”
