Awesome rig! And awesome post. We are in the market for an EC and located in Colorado as well. We are in Baja for a few months but I’ll reach out about swinging through on our way home to take a look if it’s still available!
Flexible panels are perfectly fine these days. The issue was with the first ones that hit market, and unfortunelty that stigma stuck around.
We have 1400 watts of solar on our camper roof, all flexible panels mounted directly. Zero issues.
Made in China, it’s the same one OVS and several other overland shops are selling as their own now, all manufactured in china and then relabeled here for whoever wants to sell it.
Their marketing dept is stupid. Let's have a video on our new half-million dollar vehicle but only show 11 seconds of it out of a 2 minute long video. Let's just do a bunch of dirtbikes and fire dancers instead of showing any features at all.
Cool truck though, lots of interesting full-size...
