I now have a solar panel on the roof of my caravan!\u00a0This means I can stay off-grid in beautiful spots of New Zealand. One step closer to being completely self sufficient.<\/p>\n

Who did I use?<\/h3>\n

AA Solar & Sun Power Plus<\/a> have been recommended to me multiple times by different people. They seemed to be the trusted guys in the industry. I had been told how much it might cost before approaching them. My estimate was on the higher side, because I had a few extra items included, like a Battery Computer. But the end price was $1000 over the estimate! A 1\/3 of the price was labour. I had a very, very quiet melt-down while paying. But to be honest, they have done an impressive job. It’s very neatly done – the fittings look like they have always been there. Under the seat is\u00a0also extremely\u00a0complicated looking. I imagine it would take a decent amount of time to put it all in. But\u00a0this means I will be stuck in Auckland longer to budget for the extra amount.<\/p>\n
