Could Solar Panels Power Advent AC Unit on RV
Question:
Can the Advent Air RV Air Conditioner w/ Air Distribution Box, Start Capacitor, and Heat Strip - 13,500 Btu Item # ACM135CH be hooked up to and run off of solar power? If so suggestions on how many panels to get just for the unit?

Expert Reply:
If the solar panel could provide 15 amps of 12 volt power the Advent Air RV Air Conditioner # ACM135CH could be ran off of it. Since solar panel as a direct power source can fluctuate depending on access to sunlight it's not the wisest to run it straight off of a solar panel and instead having a battery bank get charged from the panel which then provides the power for the AC unit. Or use a generator like # 333-0003.
For a panel setup that has the amperage you'd need we have the part # 34282185 which comes with three larger panels and a controller setup to manage the charge on your battery. Any smaller of a panel setup and the battery would drain pretty quickly from the AC system.
