In this video I’m going to talk about the system I use as the battery/solar backup for my sticks and bricks house. Turns out it can be a great solution for a van or tiny house. It would also be pretty slick as a backup in a larger RV!

In this video I show you some tips and tricks for setting up a battery backup system in your small space, using an ECOFLOW Delta 2 and a tiny propane generator. I’ll cover the special setting in the ECOFLOW unit that lets you control the charging power, allowing for a more portable solar battery set up for your van, RV or hunting cabin.
