Rv Solar Panel Disconnect Switch

Spotting the switch in the rv is quite easy.

Rv solar panel disconnect switch.

I wanted a solar disconnect switch so i can manually disconnect the charging current to my new lion energy lithium battery bank before they come to a 100 state of charge. Leaving alone without regular charging will damage even the best rv battery. Also it would be nice to turn off the solar juice in the winter when i pull the battery s and take them home for storage.

In this video i install a remote disconnect switch for my 500 watt solar panel array.

Pretty simple so far as we have basically just brought the power produced by the rooftop mounted solar panels inside the rv. The switch disconnects the battery s electrical power or isolates from the house portion of your rv.

I ve read if the lithium bank is only charged to 80 90 percent capacity it will increase the lifespan of the battery cells. It also shows making crimping bat. Having a disconnect switch installed will essentially allow you to turn off the power your solar panels are producing from the rest of the system.
