Our Pecron off-grid power setup — real equipment, real RV testing, and a little more freedom to camp where we want.
Why we bought it
We have a 2024 Jayco Alante 29F Class A with two air conditioners (both with soft starts) on a 30-amp shore-power connection. We wanted more flexibility to camp without electrical hookups — specifically, the ability to run air conditioning for shorter off-grid periods without running the generator constantly.
We connected the Pecron F3000LFP to our RV's 30-amp shore-power system and successfully ran both air conditioners under suitable conditions. We've also added the compatible 200W folding solar panel to supplement charging. Actual runtime depends on battery capacity, electrical load, temperature, and conditions — we're still gathering real-world data, but we're genuinely impressed with what we've tested so far.
3,072Wh LiFePO4 · 3,600W output
Expandable to 10,752Wh with compatible expansion batteries. The core of our off-grid setup — connects to our RV's 30-amp shore-power inlet.
3,840Wh additional capacity
Compatible with the F3000LFP. Adds nearly 4kWh of storage — meaningful extra runtime when you're parked without hookups and want to stretch your off-grid window.
200W · IP67 waterproof · foldable
Supplements charging when parked in sun. Useful for topping off the battery between uses — solar alone won't run air conditioning, but it meaningfully extends your off-grid window over time.

Breaks down waste and keeps your tanks clean!
Why we carry it
Nobody likes dealing with RV black tank odors or maintenance. Liquified makes one of the less glamorous parts of RV life a little easier. It's simple to add to the tank, doesn't take up much storage space, and has earned a permanent spot in our RV supplies.

You don't want your hose laying on the ground.....
Why we carry it
Easy to use. It stretches far enough for the entire hose, and can accordion up to hold a short amount. It then all folds up and stores easy under the wet bay.
MUST have to protect your rig from electrical issues
Why we carry it
This gives us ease of mind if there is a power shortage or voltage push in a campground.
The very first accessory we bought for the RV — the day we purchased it.
Why we carry it
These were the very first accessory we bought for the RV — the day we purchased it. If you know your jack size ahead of time, you can save money buying them before you need them. We wanted them installed right away so we didn't have to worry about campground rules, damaging/bending the feet, and they give us more stability.
Replaced our Blackstone — hooks directly to our propane quick disconnect.
Why we carry it
We use our Kenmore grill religiously when camping. It has actually replaced our tabletop Blackstone because it's quick and easy to grill with and hooks directly to our propane quick disconnect. It has been very durable and we've loved it.
Easy storage hose for your fresh water
Why we carry it
We love it because its easy to use and doesn't take up much space.
