Publisher's Synopsis
Now, you can develop your own power generation system on the go for your homes, RVs, vans, caravans, and boats using the 12-volt power and solar system. With this system, you can produce electricity to power your electrical appliances such as DVDs, fans, televisions, laptops, and other smart devices. This book is written to teach you an easy method of tapping from the energy of the solar system. As a beginner, setting up the solar system is pretty simple. You will know how to begin and conclude the installation processes using simple tools and other materials at your disposal. Other things you will learn in this book include:
