Cargo Trailer/RV Tilt Panel Solar Install

We finally got around to installing solar on the roof of our 6X10 converted cargo trailer camper. Rather than just mounting the panel flat, we opted to make it so that we could tilt it using a bracket kit from Link Solar. This will work on any RV including vans, trailers, buses and motorhomes.
