HEELER RECOMMENDED GEAR

THE GEAR I ACTUALLY LIKE USING.

This is not a wall of products. It is a short list of equipment and brands I tend to reach for when the job fits. Portable power, integrated power kits and fully modular RV systems are different jobs, so I do not treat one brand as the answer to everything.

Manufacturer links are provided for convenience. If an affiliate link is used now or later, it does not change your price or the recommendations produced by the Heeler RV power calculator.
EcoFlow DELTA 2 Max portable power station
PORTABLE / HYBRID POWER

EcoFlow

My first look when the customer wants portable power instead of a full permanent build.

I like EcoFlow because the system can start simple, stay portable, and still grow into useful vehicle and solar charging without turning the RV into a major electrical project.

  • Strong charging options from AC, solar and vehicle-based setups
  • Expandable ecosystem when more battery capacity is needed later
  • Good path from fully portable to a hybrid charge-while-driving setup
  • Broad range of sizes for weekend use through larger off-grid loads

MODULAR PERMANENT RV ELECTRICAL

Victron Energy

My preferred backbone when the system is being permanently installed and maximum flexibility matters.

Victron is not the cheapest route, but the modular design, configurability and monitoring make it a strong platform when reliability, serviceability and future expansion matter.

  • Modular components instead of one sealed all-in-one electrical box
  • Highly configurable charging for lithium and mixed charging sources
  • Excellent system monitoring across chargers, solar and battery data
  • Easy to expand or replace one component without rebuilding everything

EcoFlow 5kWh Power Kit
INTEGRATED INSTALLED RV SYSTEM

EcoFlow Power Kits

Including the Independence configuration.

This is the middle lane between a portable power station and a fully modular Victron build: a compact 48V installed system designed around one integrated Power Hub.

  • Designed specifically for vans, RVs, trailers and off-grid builds
  • Solar, alternator, shore-power and generator charging paths
  • Integrated inverter, charging and distribution architecture
  • Stackable batteries and app / console monitoring

Portable Power

For people who want useful off-grid power without permanently rebuilding the RV, EcoFlow is usually where I start the conversation.

Lithium Batteries

I do not pick a lithium battery by logo alone. BMS current, cold-weather charging, physical size, support and charger compatibility all matter.

Charge While Driving

Vehicle charging should be controlled. The charger, alternator, cable size and protection all have to agree with each other.

Solar & Accessories

The useful pieces are the ones that make the whole electrical system easier to charge, protect, monitor and troubleshoot.

Heeler RV recommendations are based on the electrical system and intended use. Brand preference never overrides conductor sizing, protection, equipment limits or installation practicality.
