Hi Everyone. Well, after 15 years the RV-Dreams Community Forum is coming to an end. Since it began in August 2005, we've had 58 Million page views, 124,000 posts, and we've spent about $15,000 to keep this valuable resource for RVers free and open. But since we are now off the road and have settled down for the next chapter of our lives, we are taking the Forum down effective June 30, 2021. It has been a tough decision, but it is now time.
We want to thank all of our members for their participation and input over the years, and we want to especially thank those that have acted as Moderators for us during our amazing journey living and traveling in our RV and growing the RV-Dreams Family. We will be forever proud to have been founders of this Forum and to have been supported by such a wonderful community. Thank you all!!
What a wonderful experience and wonderful people. We had solar installed by someone which was way over his head with it. It has been a nightmare for us. If you recall, we fryed our Blue Sky solar box with water, Marv Braun to the rescue. After that happened, everytime we had to fill up our fresh water tank DH cringed. Inverter & solar controller placed just above the fresh water intake, so on our way north we made an appointment with AM Solar to see what they could do. From the moment we walked in we were impressed. The waiting room has everything you could want if you need to wait for repairs. coffee, tea, water, pop, goodies and library full of rv books, maps etc. Deb (owner) was full of places where to eat, where the shops were, even scenic drives to go on. We were able to stay in the shop driveway for two nights. We arrived on Monday and they did an assessment of what could be done, Tuesday after 9 hours, the work was done but they wanted us to stay over night just to make sure everything was working OK. In the morning, Greg (the owner) met with us went over everything with us, explained the monitors and readings, what we should be aware of, you name it, he covered it. Wish we had gone with them in the first place. It is worth the drive to come to AM Solar and get your work done.
I concur. We were in Springfield, OR around the summer solstice for an install on our 2013 Leisure Travel Vans Unity MB. Greg, Deb, Roger, Dave, and the installers were all great. I'll let the pictures do the talking. Two more batteries are under the top entry step to the right of those pictured.

Very nice looking work with the proper size cable, swathes, etc. I notice in the picture they even have tie-wrapped a spare catastrophic fuse right on the line. You won't see that important detail too often.
While I did the installation of our solar system, we purchased all the components from AM Solar and it was a great experience. There were very knowledgeable with information freely provided.
