Re: Avida stuff
We are just about to go into our 7th day with no sun just rain .
Even with lipo you would need a genny .
We are lucky enough to be on power at nephews .
As yet I haven't used my genny since Echuca 3 1/2 years ago....but I still carry it .

Never carried one, but have had to charge batteries on a winnie at Monto that had a gennie that would not start because of
a flat battery !
Enough solar and Liths you don't need a gennie !

I counted 17 panels, that's 17 x 60w = 1020 plus two at the rear looked like 120w each so = about 1160w.
Looking good Vik.

I think the two at the back are on a different vehicle, correct me if I'm wrong. If not, a horrible mess has been made of the roof.

Thats why I got a couple more panels done right with a ally curved frame (So I can leave the new roof bubbles in peace) and shade house as well...

Re: Avida stuff
Strange that there is more curve on one side than the other. 
Or it may be to compensate for the road camber.
