Flex Solar brings alternative energy to RVers

Modern RVs are equipped with a wide range of comforts—with deluxe livingrooms, kitchens bedrooms and media centres. The potential amenities are only limited by the amount of power that can be brought to a destination.

Given the record-breaking gas prices, energy alternatives are increasingly necessary for those wishing to experience more from their camping excursions. Fortunately, new technologies continue to provide safe alternatives to make every adventure a success.

Flex Solar’s reliable energy solutions allow you to harness the power of the sun and enhance your travel experience. Combined with their lightweight 1,000-watt Portable Power Station, Flex Solar’s RV100 systems are designed to provide endless power for all phones, USB devices, laptops/desktops, most electronic devices and home appliances. It can be recharged via PD Type-C port, AC power adapter, car charger and solar panel at 120 watts max input. If you pair it with a portable solar panel, you end up with a portable solar generator for outdoor recreation, off-grid power supply and home backup power.

When married with the Life Giving Warmth Cozee and Kodiak battery-powered heating blanket, users can use the power of the sun to keep them warm all night. The blankets from Life Giving Warmth are a safe alternative to open flame and propane heating solutions, providing over three hours of heat.

The adventure never ends when we harness the power of light. The easy-to-use and long-lasting power solutions from Flex Solar turn any roof into a personal power plant to meet the needs of every electronic device, even the Cozee and Kodiak. Safe alternatives such as Flex Solar and Life Giving Warmth battery-powered heating blankets will be essential gear to own this summer as heightened concerns over fire safety keep open fire and generators banned or limited in many areas.
