SOLD! : Shmellmopwho's 6x10 enclosed Expo trailer

I built my trailer with the receiver tube running the full length, in theory I could pull a second trailer behind mine, but I wont, which brings us back to backing them both up

 

I saw a trailer similar to what your trying to build out in death valley this weekend.

 

Subd

 

Bahahaha I was thinking the same thing lol. I'll just keep to towing 1 trailer at a time lol

That's cool, did you get any pictures? Was it pretty sweet?

 

Leaf springs and spring hardware should be delivered today and Axle should be delivered tomorrow! Hoping to be able to get some work done this weekend!!

 

Didnt grab photos but pretty sweet. It was on all terrain tires had windows and a vent on the roof.

 

Nice! That's the plan, once I insulate the walls and do a little reinforcing I'll be adding a couple windows and a vent up top. When you get the chance could you message me how about your solar setup on your trailer. Basically what it all consists of? Is it a kit you buy? What wattage do you need to charge your trailer battery? Just those kinds of things.

 

Renoogy

 

I have the Renogy solar stuff book marked on my phone lol. That's the kit I'm thinking of going with

 

It is the kit I will be going with I have read nothing but great things about their stuff and even traded some emails with someone from their tech department. They get my vote.

Nice man, which kit would be needed to charge a deep cycle battery that I would put in the trailer? I basically wanna be able to run some lights and my fridge and maybe a couple outlets to be able to charge a couple little things.

 

https://www.renogy.com/renogy-100w-12v/starter-kit/

This was my plan, the controller is capable of 400w should I want to add panels down the road

 

Sick! Awesome list!! Thanks bro!!

 

Is one of those panels enough to charge your battery enough to run let's say a fridge, a couple interior lights, charge a laptop and a phone or two?

 

That's pretty cool

 

Yeah. as long as the battery is charged before. I leave my battery on a trickle charger at home. so the solar just helps maintain when i'm on trips. I haven't had issues yet.

 

If you know the draw of all the things you want to run, you can plug it into the calculator and it will give you an idea of what size you will need https://www.renogy.com/calculators#solar-size

 

Way cool. Thanks Nick. I appreciate the help. I'm looking forward getting it all set up
