I'm getting a bus, gutting it, and renovating the insides to be a camper. Might also try some experimental stuff out as well for energy collection while driving.

See if I can't make it a long-term project.
Awesome !
Busses are great for the RV conversion. It would be a fun project too.

Solar panels on RVs are a great investment, I know people who use them and it keep their batteries charged and they rarely run their generator anymore. Another thing to look at is a lot of RVers are going to multiple 6 volt batteries, as they hold power better. So I've been told.

Yup, also looking to use wind power as well, for there are parts of the bus that have great air flow, while other parts don't, and if I can convert that to a passive energy gathering system, I will.
