How many days will my Pure3 lithium system run on 12v DC with only solar charging the energy pack?

Don’t know! Let’s run this experiment together.

In this video you will see how many days my Travato GL can power the ceiling fan, minimal lights, and the fridge/freezer running from the 48 volt, 8,700 watt-hour Pure3 lithium energy system by Volta.

HUGE DIFFERENCE WITH NEW SOLAR CONTROLLER! Before the the solar controller upgrade, solar was not very additive to the energy pack. Now, with the solar controller upgrade from Volta, the two roof-top mounted solar panels, capable of generating 200-watts of energy, are definitely adding to the entry pack by more efficiently harvesting sunlight.

However, heavy clouds and rainy water have a dramatic impact on the solar input, meaning the energy consumption is greater than the charge, which means the energy pack is deleting at about 20% per 24-jours instead of 10% per 24-hours.

Curious, how long will your RV run in 12v DC mode with only a solar contribution? How long would you want your rig to run on 12v?

RECOMMENDATION
If you, like me, had a first generation Volta Pure3 system, contact your Winnebago dealer to talk about options to upgrade your solar controller and the State Of Charge (SOC) gauge the second-generation components. Doing so will give you much better harvesting of solar energy and a more initiative display gauge.

ABOUT
Go Small. Live Large! 🚐
My name is Scott. I live and work full-time from my Winnebago Travato GL, a 21’ Class B RV camper van. Along with my cat, Luke, we share stories of PLACES, PEOPLE, working as a DIGITAL NOMAD, and enjoying the RV LIFESTYLE in our Winnebago as we roam around North America. My hope is to inspire others to get out their comfort zone and maybe even Go Small to Live Large! in their own RV.
