As some of you may know, 3D Printing is my hobby and my Cali is the love of my life

Combining the two is just heaven

I have an EcoFlow in the van and the folding solar panels. We mainly use it / them at festivals. Nothing annoys me more than having to empty the boot to get to the solar panels. After a bit of thinking, a few glasses of red wine and a few hours drawing, I came up with the perfect solution

is this the 400w one as i didnt think could fit under there :) i have to put above which is fine as acts like a mini table to put everything else on :) love the innovation though.
 
And if the perfect solution was solar panel on the roof ? :Iamsorry
I do have two 100w panels on the roof, which charge my leisure batteries. These are specifically for my EcoFlow which I use more than the leisure batteries if I am honest. We normally only take them to festivals as we normally run the EcoFlow down after 2 days

Yes it’s the 400w panels from EcoFlow, I didn’t think they would fit either.

I found the 400w charges the Ecoflow in decent sunlight in about an hour or so can top out at more than 360w which is amazing. Although the 400w solars are quite heavy but you can use them standing up also and use as a windbreaker lol.
 
thanks do you have the STL at all, if you don't want to share don't worry its cool.
At the moment it’s still been developed, there are a few things I need to change, however you will need a large printer as the side brackets are over 300mm long
