    I have no plans to ever do electrical work, but hanging out with Danny while he explains it all was so much fun. Great editing and storytelling!

      Agree 100%, I hate "construction" videos but totally enjoyed Danny's explanations of what he was doing - he cut to the chase without any "woe is me" drama, so good-natured and positive through the whole thing - lol! I didn't fast-forward even once! 😄

    FYI if you want more outlets. Get a surge protected power strip, plug into inverter. I used extension cords (10g) to run to outlets, and cut the plug off to wire to the outlets. Works awesome. And you have a built in ‘fuse’ box with the surge protection. (Courtesy of Jonnie’s Journey’s idea🎉)

    You sound like an experienced electrician! Too complicated for me but loved seeing all your progress. You guys are amazing! Love to Graham and Sombrita also. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

    I think my brain is going to explode! That was an amazing tutorial! Good job videoing all that work. I loved Emily photo-bombing your serious explanations

    Way over my head, but it’s worthwhile to know how to do all that stuff. I paid a marine electrician $120CAD/hr to do my electrical and I’m still paying that loan off. Great job Danny!

    Danny is smarter than the average person.
    Most people know nothing about electricity.

    Open ended and closed ratchet wrenches!!! Good addition to a tool box.

    Great job explaining your work, Danny! Most people wouldn't follow it easily, but you made it extremely clear and straightforward for all.
    If you made a frame under the solar panels, so you could hinge and then tilt them at a 45 angle (when stationary), you could pull in even more power. More work, but could be very helpful at times...little late now, maybe...
    Cheers!...from North Vancouver

      Hey Adrian,
      Thanks for the shout-out to Danny! _He'll be stoked_ to hear that his explanation hit the mark!
      Cheers from our little corner of the world to North Vancouver! Keep those ideas coming, we _love_ them!

      11:51 you need a circuit to do that changeover right. I am not enough of an electronics dude to know where to start, but I am certain it's a common enough design pattern. Jerri Ellsworth will know how to do it.
