In anticipation of Picking up Lily

First step was naming her and we choose 'Lily'. A play off Lily Pad.

Very important to us: Bedding. We found what we believe will work as a good pad to work up from. I bought this and got a good deal by buying two. $107 for both.

Then came my disappointment of lack of USB charging ports where I believe will want them most. To this end I bought this:

and some 18650 3000mah (listed as 3400mah, but testing out between 3050-3170mah) batteries for it. This will allow charging from anywhere in the trailer and re-charge from the TV when driving.

Batteries I bought direct from China:

If your going to buy from China, this is a good site to do it from. Buyer beware for there are some non-reputable vendors on there. This company I bought for is highly recommended by bike builders for their batteries. I should mention, the ones I would are button-top. I had to Mod the unit for them to fit.. Better buying flat-tops.

I found TT batteries that I believe I will go with and need to check out the deal on them. Also complete my research on just how good they are.

These are 230ah batteries listed at $110 ea. Requiring two, $220. 10% off for online purchase $198. I've been able to bring my old battery and get the core discount before, so if I can with these at $18 each.. Should be $162 (I have a couple to recycle and they typically don't care if they're the same).

I'll update how that goes, but at $168 for 230ah of power, ya I like this!  

Oh yes we are!

Look forward to your reports on your Solar! I have 2 130w panels that I plan now to only bring one for testing and see how it goes. How big is your system?
