Awesome setup. Golf cart and deep cycle boat batteries are the best to use when needing higher capacity of power and cheaper. I used to be a generator technical and have blown peoples minds by showing them how to double voltage with batteries. Welding with jumper cables and a battery is a big thing too if you need to weld on the trail or roadside. I'd recommend keeping some welding rod in you trailer or jeep too.
I told Jake about how easy a modest arch (stick) setup as backup on the trail might help. I know there is a guy selling a full kit real inexpensively on eBay for such applications.
You'll get much more efficiency out of those panels using a MPPT solar controller. The Kodiak is a nicely integrated unit though! Love your videos Jake.
Would've been nice if u would've striped the trailer to its bare structure and replaced all the metal with either aluminum or fiberglass/carbon, to save weight and optimize mpg ! And I'm a long time sub, even decided to move into my 89 yj and explore my father's land and save ton's of cash! Started in Kali and went to Long island just to test her capacity and reputation, and currently in Florida! Thanks so much for the inspiration Jake, wouldn't have live if it wasn't for you!
I was looking for a solution to my problem with building a solar setup into my Jeep wrangler TJ and now this is a solution. Yes Jake good shit. Now I just need my Dana 44 first:( best of luck buddy good to see you doing jeep upgrades I bet you don't miss doing upgrades in a marina parking lot lol
Looks like a good set-up. Hope it holds up well and performs well too... Looking forward to you getting back on the road visiting places I probably will never see except thru your video’s.
Freaking Genius & All The More Beautiful because of the Wonderful Gentlemen (No insult intended at all!) Help You Had!! Go Jade, Jake & Friends& Miss Annie. Hope you’ll create a bit of a hide-a-way “Covered Area” for the LONG & Fast Highway Trips For Annie. So she’ll have it, B4 her personality modifies because She didn’t choose it, her terrific Human Did! Just a Thought Jake. Have A Blast, All of you!. BTW: Great Choices & Thanks for the Info & the 20% Discount too. Kind.
Annie! Learned a ton with this episode. Took notes. Thanks Jake. Hope you earn some $$$ from the product. Maybe cushion the trailer floor under components. Just an idea.
I was telling Jake if we had more time, we should really redo the perches, shackles, leafs under the trailer like his YJ to make the trailer ride better.
Please put a rubber gusset in that hole where the wire goes from the panels to the generator! it will wear through the insulation and short everything out. Amazon sells them cheapo. Look at monstaliner it can be applied with a roller, no rubber inside. barage of colors take a look I did the outside of my jeep XJ and it looks amazing.
Actually you were way better off with the Blue Tops. The only reason the 6 volt batteries are rated with that storage is because it is using the formula for only drawing six volts. Once linked in series your storage will now be cut by more than half due to the 12 volt draw. At same time high quality gel batteries are designed for charge discharge without forming a charge memory. Realistically the best batteries to use would be 85 amp hr. power wheelchair batts. You would get a true 170amp hrs. at a full twelve volt draw and they would last for yrs. I own a Mobility store and we have mass amounts of people that come in and purchase batts. for their cabins and rv's. Even the golf cart guys come in and upgrade to our batteries for range and performance. The other problem you will have with the golf cart batteries is they are not a shock proof battery. Unless that trailer of yours is running on a smooth trail you will fracture a cell wall and cause a short between cells. In the end, you truly get what you pay for.
Yeah, because nobody drives a golf cart over bumps. They just have to be secured well. I have used the 6 volt batteries in my RV for 12 years now and I can go off grid for nearly a week if I don't run the furnace all night. Have had no problems with memory but I never discharge them more than 50%. Not sure how much the wheelchair batteries cost but for the price of the golf cart batteries I don't see how you can go wrong.
VERY GOOD INFORMATION....I plan on doing a video on my F450 Expeditionary Truck with some kind of solar upgrades and will be sure to research your comments beforehand. THX!
This comment is misleading. 6v batteries are very good to use in this application. The key term when getting batteries for this type of draw is DEEP cycle. Deep cycle batteries are good to use in applications that see lower consistent amp draws >20 Amps. 12v and 6v DEEP cycle batteries have larger plates inside them, spaced out to give a good long discharge. This is unlike 12v starter batteries or 12v batteries rated 'marine', 'dual purpose' or 'rv'. Starter batteries have small plates close together for higher cranking amps, marine/rv batteries are bigger and further space, but still retain decent cranking amps (mainly needed for trolling motors). These 6v batteries are 220 amp hours each. Put them in a series connection for 12 volts and you keep the 220 amps. If you were to keep the batteries as 6 volt, parallel connection, you will double the amperage. Also, GEL isn't anything special, it's just a different form of LEAD-ACID technology. 6v are just as good if not better.
Excellent addition Jake. I have a similar setup (except 12 volt AGM slaves) in my Jeep. I charge via 3x 100 volt panels on my rooftop tent. The Kodiak is amazingly energy efficient when inverting and charging - much more than a Goal Zero. It’s weight (about 35 lbs) and portability for a 1k system is what tipped the scale for me to make the investment. I wanted to use it as a backup in my home also. I’m curious if you are planning to keep the solar always connected. I’ve gotten conflicting guidance from Inergy on if that’s advisable and healthy for longevity for the Kodiak system.
Jake, I thought you'd get a kick out of this so i wanted to share. Today, for some reason RUclips has a recommended topic for banana pancakes on my page for some reason. I wondered if it was because i watch your videos. BTW, this trailer is awesome!
Jake! Probably one of your best videos yet. Although Mexico was pretty cool. I also enjoyed the traveling and camping stuff...So, this was a job well done. Keep the good stuff coming! I am going to get one of those boxes for my rig.
I heard the fans on your Kodiak start when you switched it on... I would worry about good cooling / ventilation for that unit. Placed in the 'back' of the that space in the trailer might not give you enough air flow. Just my thoughts. All the best!
The downside to GC batteries is they don't like going dry, being tilted, or lots of vibrations. You may have been better off with the AGM's from a reliability standpoint.
You may have already addressed this and I missed it but just in case you should seal up the hole the wires went through in the top of the trailer for when it rains
I'm sorry but that Kodiak thing is just not worth $1500. It's nothing more than an iverter/charge controller in a nice package with way too many outlets. A 90 AH battery is nothing. Big waste of money in my opinion.
It's probably not intended for those who could piece together a similar setup on their own. I assume it's geared more towards the less electrical-savvy folk that would rather buy something with a warranty and company behind it than pay for labor and hope for the best.
Right. I have a Goal Zero Yeti 1400 lithium which is similarly priced/capable. I am savvy enough to build my own system, but I chose the package route because I wanted to be able to move the unit between multiple vehicles, house etc. and it also be in a small and well contained box. It is expensive, but for some of us out there, it's worth the cost. If I didn't plan on moving the power center, I'd definitely build my own.
So you sacrifice well over $1000 just because you can't follow directions that come with any solar kit? I could built 5 of these for $1500... It's not rocket science.
mobiltec I'd like to see that. Or how bout 1 at 20% cost with apples to apples compare. I believe these have lithium ion baths, not agm. Also think lithium batts take a charger designed for them but not sure. Time is money, exactly how long are you gonna spend on it. And it's gonna take a lot more time to make it look halfway decent. I do shit like you're saying all the time, so I know it's NEVER as simple as "Just throwin together this or that". Gotta drill how many holes... in the proper spots. Gotta cut n trim n bend n fabricate n massage things. Gotta wire it all up with comparable connections and connectors, fuses n such. And at the end, the box you're so proud of looks like a piece of shit to everybody else but a select few who get (I get it, but I also get why your idea isn't really well thought out, again the time is money thing will keep comin up). You CAN NOT build a comparable product for anywhere near the 20% price you claim, and no matter what your end product is, it will not be anything folks who are interested in this nicely finished, safe product are interested in. People like me would be interested, but not the folks you're telling this to. Basically you're preaching to the wrong crowd. If you decide to do a build, I will most definitely watch it with pleasure (I love that kinda stuff), i do have time on my hands and have interest in a much cheaper, uglier (but I could care less), comparable set up. And fuck the 20%, I would be really interested in what it can actually be done for (dollars for comparable products) and how long to put it together. Even at 30-40%, for folks interested in the savings, that would be significant enough for one to consider doin it themselves.
junk as some may call it is what makes real men. the have and have not's will be decided not by bank accounts, but by the backyard holdings. ride on good sir and remember to look for that lonely bolt on the side of the road you never know when you might need it.
Hell ya...plus I hate driving to the hardware or auto parts place in the middle of a build (waste of freaking time for over priced China crap). MADE IS CHINA, BROKEN IN AMERICA!
Jake....don't concern yourself with what other people say about your hair...it is a shallowness that people have when it comes to "what you look like"...I am not putting them down, just a fact that most people judge another by looks instead of hearts. Yes it is too bad most people are like this but that's what happens when people rely on looks and material things which causes vanity and shallowness. Years ago before I got my own house I rented a house from a guy I never met until after I moved in...one day this scroungy-looking guy pulled-up in my driveway with a beat-up old ford pickup wearing torn and holey pants and his shirt was very dirty like he had been wearing it for two weeks...he got out of his beat-up old truck and told me to not stack my firewood on the porch..I said excuse me? Who the hell are you? He said he was the landlord...of course I moved the firewood...the next day I was telling my neighbor about it and he laughed and said "yea, you would never guess that guy is the owner of 3 of the largest plywood mills plus a lot of land here in Oregon...he's a millionaire and fly's around here in his helicopter all the time...and he is always working and is always seen dirty...and he loves his old pickup". So when people judge you for what you wear and how your hair looks etc. just shrug it off and say to yourself "I don;t give a rats-ass what other people think...I am happy, honest and have a good heart".
Couldn't you have saved a lot of weight by just ditching that platform and bolting stuff straight to the floor? Seems like a big expense for a 20% efficiency improvement.
Yeah, agreed...but his intention is to drop the trailer as a base camp...then use the jeep as the adventure right out in the wild. So he reconfigured all the cargo and got it off the top of his jeep for those reasons.

Saved $375 thanks Jake!!
Can’t wait to see the trailer all painted and with matching wheels
The veteran in me is screaming “get that mop on your head back into regs boy” 😂😂😂
Disagree!!! Leave it!
Keyword....VETERAN....let it goooooo bro. You're not in anymore....
I’m active duty and my mustache extends sideways beyond a vertical line drawn upwards from the corners of my mouth.............fear me

Nice upgrade! I’m impressed with all your mechanical skills!! And I see Izzy’s dad likes you.👍🏼
The same plug-in play generator I've been using for 3 years glad you finally upgraded
I probably won't ever do what you do....but I love all your videos man. You're great!
Wow... that makes it so much easier. Love the new technologies.
Great vid. You're laying out the details of an incredible free life strategy. Seriously respect your work.
Would've been nice if u would've striped the trailer to its bare structure and replaced all the metal with either aluminum or fiberglass/carbon, to save weight and optimize mpg ! And I'm a long time sub, even decided to move into my 89 yj and explore my father's land and save ton's of cash!

Happy for the fresh take jake, you got your reboot and it's amazing
Good Morning Jake, the trailer set up is looking awesome!! I can't wait to see the upgrades on Jade!!
Interested in seeing how this setup handles all of the bouncing, temperature swings, etc next year. :-)
Great set up Jake. Can’t wait to see it in person.
I just got my first car a 2003 Jeep rubicon and I literally can’t wait till it gets shipped here and begin the mods
Holy crap people need to let the dude live and quit complaining about his hair.
No kidding! That's the last thing I'd worry about.
Looks like a good set-up. Hope it holds up well and performs well too... Looking forward to you getting back on the road visiting places I probably will never see except thru your video’s.
Super happy you are making a come back
That's crazy. I just lost a great best friend of mine recently with the name Mike Gutierrez. That set up was pretty easy. Good vid
TBT to when we used to push wish-bone !
LOVING the last few videos, man! Keep it up!
pretty sweet, Jake!
Great vid man, glad some good companies are hopping along for the trip
Freaking Genius & All The More Beautiful because of the Wonderful Gentlemen (No insult intended at all!) Help You Had!!

Just a Thought Jake.
Have A Blast, All of you!.

I will look forward to the Kodiak review! I hope it's as easy to use as its looks.
Annie! Learned a ton with this episode. Took notes. Thanks Jake. Hope you earn some $$$ from the product. Maybe cushion the trailer floor under components. Just an idea.
I was telling Jake if we had more time, we should really redo the perches, shackles, leafs under the trailer like his YJ to make the trailer ride better.
Damn Jake! Y'all are knocking out a ton of work on Jade! How long till you're "done"? haha
TriggerHapySheep It's a Jeep, no such thing as done.
I know, i drive one as well, hence the quotes around "done" lol
Please put a rubber gusset in that hole where the wire goes from the panels to the generator! it will wear through the insulation and short everything out. Amazon sells them cheapo. Look at monstaliner it can be applied with a roller, no rubber inside. barage of colors take a look I did the outside of my jeep XJ and it looks amazing.
Agreed, I have a pile of rubber and plastic escusions he can choose from for these reasons.

Say it with me: Goo-T-air-esz
Carcaine hahahahahaha dude 😂
More like Goo-tier-esz
That's a real nice power set-up [beerclink]
Awesome setup on the trailer!
Killer setup dude!!! Trailer is really coming along nice!!
Nice video Jake.👍
Great video thanks for sharing
I heard the fans on your Kodiak start when you switched it on... I would worry about good cooling / ventilation for that unit. Placed in the 'back' of the that space in the trailer might not give you enough air flow. Just my thoughts. All the best!
I will mention is to him....thanks....we need to devise a grille that wont allow moisture inside the trailer offroad.
The downside to GC batteries is they don't like going dry, being tilted, or lots of vibrations. You may have been better off with the AGM's from a reliability standpoint.
I fucking,love this jeep
pretty sure the kodiak is lithium batteries that can be drained farther then the lead acid golf cart batteries just a heads up buddy
Freaking awesome buddy, that's a cool setup now......
like the content and the plan for improving the trailer... Regs regs regs man
I would make sure to put dielectric grease on any exposed connections.
Agreed!
Another great upload. Is the trailer waterproof?
Yes.
Omg your back
Please do a video when you do the trailer.
Hi jake! Great upgread
The drawback is those are wet cells. And youll need to water them weekly. The optimas are gel cells and never needs to be looked at.
That Guy Mike if they are evaporating that quickly you may be overcharging them, they do need maintenance, weekly is a bit much.
You should not have to add water that often. Not even close to that often if you aren't overcharging them
That Guy Mike I
Good point as are all the other comments on this issue. I think I am going to give him my plastic battery boxes as some protection.
I mean...how is this dude so strong? He’s throwing batteries around like they’re nothing.
You went full veteran beard hair and all.... let me know when come to kc.
You may have already addressed this and I missed it but just in case you should seal up the hole the wires went through in the top of the trailer for when it rains
My thoughts exactly
silicone.
Trailer needs some paint love
Soon, stay tuned!!!!
You looking Pablo Escobar in narcos now lol
Don't forget to make ventilation vents for the generator and batteries. things can get nasty in there like hydrogen and heat build up... Nasty!
@ Jake
In the thumbnail image you look a lot like... I think it's Zack galafanakis I'm thinkin of, pretty sure spelled wrong also.
I'm sorry but that Kodiak thing is just not worth $1500. It's nothing more than an iverter/charge controller in a nice package with way too many outlets. A 90 AH battery is nothing. Big waste of money in my opinion.

The solar plugs right into it whihc is the real goal of I AM JAKE living offgrid in the future adventures.
So you sacrifice well over $1000 just because you can't follow directions that come with any solar kit? I could built 5 of these for $1500... It's not rocket science.
mobiltec
I'd like to see that. Or how bout 1 at 20% cost with apples to apples compare. I believe these have lithium ion baths, not agm. Also think lithium batts take a charger designed for them but not sure. Time is money, exactly how long are you gonna spend on it. And it's gonna take a lot more time to make it look halfway decent.

Great video. Jake what cooler do you suggest works best. Have you tried the yeti coolers? Love the videos from day one.

Hell ya...plus I hate driving to the hardware or auto parts place in the middle of a build (waste of freaking time for over priced China crap). MADE IS CHINA, BROKEN IN AMERICA!
Nice video Jake, I have a question though. How did you insulate the jeep for you to sleep in?
You insulate yourself good sleeping bag. Sleeping pad with a good R rating and some warm under wear.
And Annie lol
I have a golf cart, you have to keep an eye on the water in the batteries, and ventilate. You dont want the hydrogen to build up in your trailer.
Duely...did I spell that correctly, noted!
Ill buy your old solor panels
Hello from germany
I was about to go to sleep when I remembered I never watched this episode. Crises AVERTED
hi jake
2:17 2:17 2:17
I just can't hear it enough! That's a heck of a piece of equipment, 30a @ 240v leaves us with 7200 watts.
Wait...it's only 1500 watts?
That single plug in the corner of the solar panels is definitely going to corrode pretty fast.
stainless steel...no rust.
Checked Ebay to see what this thing would cost. $1500!!? You kidding me?
What’s up with the caveman look bro 😂 barely recognized you on the thumbnail. Nice build!
Dude looks like the caddy from Happy Gilmore
amps or watts which one is more important? hmmmm
Could this thing run a welder? Like a 90amp mig?
Are you going to use a gasket or grommet where the wires enter the inside of the trailer...
hell yes!
Your wiring is no longer water resistant with not having the lid on that circular junction box bud.
Jake- it's time to get the clippers out buddy.. starting to look Charles Manson'ish...clean cut fits you man!
How much did everything cost you(individually)?
Jake....don't concern yourself with what other people say about your hair...it is a shallowness that people have when it comes to "what you look like"...I am not putting them down, just a fact that most people judge another by looks instead of hearts. Yes it is too bad most people are like this but that's what happens when people rely on looks and material things which causes vanity and shallowness. Years ago before I got my own house I rented a house from a guy I never met until after I moved in...one day this scroungy-looking guy pulled-up in my driveway with a beat-up old ford pickup wearing torn and holey pants and his shirt was very dirty like he had been wearing it for two weeks...he got out of his beat-up old truck and told me to not stack my firewood on the porch..I said excuse me? Who the hell are you? He said he was the landlord...of course I moved the firewood...the next day I was telling my neighbor about it and he laughed and said "yea, you would never guess that guy is the owner of 3 of the largest plywood mills plus a lot of land here in Oregon...he's a millionaire and fly's around here in his helicopter all the time...and he is always working and is always seen dirty...and he loves his old pickup".
So when people judge you for what you wear and how your hair looks etc. just shrug it off and say to yourself "I don;t give a rats-ass what other people think...I am happy, honest and have a good heart".
now all you need is an arb fridge
He does have one. I think it was on the "2 PEOPLE LIVING IN A JEEP WRANGLER" vlog. Someone had a spare fridge and gifted it to him.
thanks mel
hey jake can you tell me what happend to your dog annie?
Who doesn’t know how to pronounce “Gutierrez “
C’mon bro lol 😂
I think he should get rid of the beard but keep some massive sideburns🤘🤘
Yeti 150 my dudes it's only 200$ at REI
I think Jake had one and he likes his current one better. I think....
If Mike Posner was an Overlander
Couldn't you have saved a lot of weight by just ditching that platform and bolting stuff straight to the floor? Seems like a big expense for a 20% efficiency improvement.
Good point, but he didn't want to drill holes/silicone, etc. for leaks.
you are going to kill that kodiak because of air flow, not able to cool its self.
Really...it has built in fans...we air gapped it...I'll mention it to him, thanks.
so much weight!!!
Yeah, agreed...but his intention is to drop the trailer as a base camp...then use the jeep as the adventure right out in the wild. So he reconfigured all the cargo and got it off the top of his jeep for those reasons.
First one here!
your the third or fourth channel to get one of those....that tells me their shit for sure....ugh
meaning good or bad (lousy) shit?
What is with these 1 minutes unskipable ads
That haircut is wayyyyyyyyy out of regs lol keep the beard but cut the mop
Boooo
FINALLY........
F@€#
Jake get a hair cut.
Paul Howell booooooo
Get a hair cut? Nerd
Bro u need a haircut
