From DIY to Done Right


At Big Beard Battery, we meet a lot of RV owners who start their solar journey alone—watching YouTube videos, ordering parts, and diving in with the best intentions. But as Chris Briggs discovered, there’s a big difference between piecing together a system yourself and getting hands-on training from professionals who build them every day.


Chris arrived at our Big Beard Battery Solar Clinic already halfway through his solar install. He’d ordered high-quality components, including three 24V 300Ah Beast batteries, two 3000W multiplex inverters, and 4,300 watts of rooftop solar. On paper, it looked perfect. But as Chris soon learned, the real magic happens in the wiring, layout, and load balancing—the kind of precision that only comes with expert guidance.


The System: Serious Power for Serious RV Living

Chris’ setup is impressive:

  • 3 x 24V 300Ah Beast Batteries — Nearly 22kWh of lithium storage power

  • 2 x 3000W Multiplex Inverters — Enough juice to run two air conditioners or an A/C and microwave simultaneously

  • 4,300 Watts of Solar — For continuous power generation, even off-grid


This configuration isn’t just about power—it’s about freedom. With this system, Chris and his wife can camp anywhere and live like they’re plugged into shore power, no matter where they park.


Why the Solar Clinic Changed Everything

Despite having his parts in hand, Chris decided to attend the Big Beard Battery Solar Clinic to ensure everything was installed correctly. After completing the program, he said:

“If I could go back and tell myself earlier, I’d just show up and start from scratch. The process makes it so much easier. Everything’s lined out step by step, and you have all the right tools and knowledge.”

The structured clinic process teaches not just how to install but why each component belongs where it does. From properly gauged wiring and circuit protection to inverter synchronization and solar controller setup, participants learn every part of the system from start to finish—hands-on, guided by experts.

And the best part? Everything is on-site. No trips to the hardware store, no missing parts, no guesswork.

“It’s like coming to a man’s playground,” Chris laughed. “Every tool, every screw, every piece of equipment—right there when you need it.”

More Than Training—It’s a Community

Beyond the tech, the clinic is about connection. Participants camp together with full hookups, enjoy a relaxing atmosphere, and build friendships with others pursuing the same off-grid lifestyle.

“We met our neighbors—people doing exactly what we’re doing,” Chris shared. “We’re hoping to see them again down the road.”

Each clinic ends with a Friday night dinner, a highlight for many attendees. It’s a chance to swap stories, share meals, and celebrate the progress made throughout the week.

“The dinner on Friday night alone is almost worth coming for,” Chris said. “The whole experience was great.”
