IT’S FINALLY DONE! Most Powerful Off-Grid Electrical Setup!
For over 598 days, we've been living without a reliable power source in our cabin in the woods. We constantly run out of power, and we wish we could show you what that looks like, but it's just dark! Think about all of the things you use electricity for every day. Pretty tough to go without, right?! Well it's something we've learned not to take for granted, because it's been so hard to come by... UNTIL NOW! We're installing a 48 volt electrical system with over 10,000 watts of solar power and 28 kWh of battery storage to harvest the sun's energy! This has been our most complex project to date. While this isn't our first time dabbling in electricity (if you recall the first three letters of our channel, we built our van--including all the electric--ourselves from top to bottom), but it is one of our most ambitious! After a lot of hard work, mistakes, sweat and tears, it all comes down to the moment of truth: will our power work?! The answer, all comes down to a flick of the switch! Special thanks to Battleborn Batteries for all their incredible help with everything. We couldn't have done it without you! What do you think of our power system?! Did you have any idea solar could generate so much energy for a cabin?? Comment below!

Our Journey! How did we get here?
In the winter of 2019 we moved in to our self built van full time to begin living, working and travelling Canada. We quickly fell in love with chasing our dreams of adventuring off the beaten path, living off grid and being self sustaining. We drove our van thousands of miles through various countries-Canada, USA, Mexico & Guatemala. All of which we documented here on our channel, be sure to check that out! After many years on the open road we found ourselves 15 acres of remote woods on the East Coast of Canada where we are building a homestead and renovating our fully off the grid cabin. We are diving into this chapter of our lives in no experience, we're so happy we can bring you all along as we learn to do it all with our own two hands. Thank you for being here with us for cabin life, van life and all the in between!
