S3: Vlog #40. Vogel State Park | DeSoto Falls | Camp Cooking
This is such a bittersweet time for me. I'm so excited to be back on the road again for the next four months, but this time I'll be doing it alone. Sadly, I had to put my 4-legged adventure partner down earlier this year. 15 years together, 3 countries, 32 national parks together. It's hard to describe how I'm feeling right now.
This episode, I'm getting used to being back in the van. We'll explore DeSoto Falls in Northern Georgia, hike a mountain in Vogel State Park, and make some killer chicken at camp next to a river.
We've got a LOT to explore this season, so let's get this party started.
My Solar Setup:
This is my second setup I've installed in Vandalf the Grey. The more you travel, the more you figure out what your needs are. I've stuck with Renogy products both times, because I literally have had zero issues with them. They just work the first time. Every time. I am a Renogy affiliate, so if you use this link, you'll receive 10% off your purchase, and Onyx and I will get a bit of gas money. http://73renogy.refr.cc/johnnyg
- (2) 100 Watt 12 Volt Monocrystalline Solar Panel
https://bit.ly/3lYqsM3
- DCC30S 12V 30A Dual Input DC-DC On-Board Battery Charger with MPPT (this was a game changer! MUCH faster charging than my previous charge controller + it charges the battery while driving, if necessary)
https://bit.ly/3yFv7Gm
- Deep Cycle Hybrid GEL Battery 12 Volt 200Ah (I AM sold on the advantages of lithium ion, HOWEVER, I don't feel the costs have quite reached the value yet.)
https://bit.ly/3lUAi1m
- 700W 12V Pure Sine Wave Inverter (This is plenty for me. I use it for charging of devices, a fan, significant LEDs, and that's it. Go bigger if you're planning on a fridge, etc).
