I invested over $10,000 in high-end components in the electrical system including: 400aH of Lithium Iron Phosphate house batteries, with internal heating pads for safe charging in Canadian winters; a Renogy DC-to-DC charger to charge the house batteries off the alternator while you drive down the road; 800 watts of solar panels on the roof; Victron Multiplus 3000 watt inverter-charger; 20 Amp, 115 volt AC outlets throughout the build; 12 volt DC outlets throughout the build; dimmable overhead LED puck lights in three zones. cell phone signal booster retractable 42” 4K TV driven by a dedicated Windows PC Apart from running the air conditioner, there is ample power for off- grid boondocking. You can recharge the house batteries in several ways: by the solar panels; by the alternator when the bus is in motion; by plugging into shore power (up to 30 amps); or by a generator. A 2,000 watt generator (not included) will store easily in the “garage” under the bed. See a detailed tour of the electrical system here.
