John discovered his love for solar energy in a very organic way: while planning to take a break from renovations contracting, he converted his Sprinter work van into a solar-powered camper for the road trip of a lifetime. The camper conversion included a single 340w solar panel on the roof, which John learned to properly and safely install through hours of online research. The panel was hooked up to batteries along with equipment that would allow John to run lights, fans and a mini-fridge in the Sprinter. Then, he hit the road on a trip that led him across the continent and back.
