In this episode we take a detailed look at the electrical system that we installed in the Go North expedition truck camper. The system was designed to run primarily off truck alternator charging and some solar power. While the system worked well and allowed us to operate without a generator for a 6 month Alaska trip we did hit a few snags and discuss improving the system using a DC-DC converter between the vehicle and the RV.
