Those of you interested in photo-voltaics or renewable energy may be interested to read about Don Kulha's 1969 bus featured in the August/September issue of Home Power magazine. Don has mounted 5 Siemens modules on a rack atop his van. The array produces 24 amps of current at 14.5 VDC, or approx 375 watts. With inverter, controller, batteries etc. he has added $4,421 of investment and 400 pounds of weight to the bus. There is an extremely cool photo of his campsite, all lit up with renewable power!
