Good question Jon: I was almost certain that you would ask that question.
In an effort to have a little fun and at the same time improve the bus, I have decided to upgrade the Inverter charger system to a newer model that are tied to a solar solution as well as the 4DL batteries.

The new inverters will tie to this Solar Controller:

I can then take the space on my roof (7'X12') Diamond plate custom platform
and convert it to a solar array that will raise toward the sun. I am not using the observatory much as a entertainment location now and felt that as a ready to go solar platform I could add some additional (non-Generator) camping hours in remote locations.
My objective is to get at least 1KW out of the solar panels, possibly 1.2KW.
This is what I want on my roof minus the trailer. http://www.solaroversales.com/
Who knows maybe I can get a tax credit out of the install.
