Re: [MBZ] OT: Practical solar application
If you want to go solar...I just did a solar install on the motor home. I put 2 100W panels on the roof, an MPPT controller (so I could wire the panels in series and have the wiring handle the higher voltage more efficiently) and 2 Group 27 deep cycle batteries wired in parallel. The system works great. The MH already had a 1600W inverter which I use very little. Total cost for all components was about $750. I spent more on the panels to get flexible ones that I could tape with 3M VHB tape to the curved fiberglass roof. Rigid panels would cost about $50-100 less IIRC. The way to go is to figure out what your daily amperage usage would be. Battery capacity should be at least twice that amount, and solar input should obviously be enough to exceed usage. I agree with others that the heat requirement likely would overwhelm the capabilities of a solar system.

The stability and maneuverability of these things requires that they be controllable rapidly, which can be done with an electric motor. It would be interesting to see an analysis of putting a motor/generator on the thing, with some batteries for load balancing (is that the right term?), sorta like a diesel locomotive (but it doesn't have batteries), and see what the size and duration tradeoffs would be like.

Great comments, thanks all.

All of my mount screws were metric socket head set screws so you'll want quality metric allen hex bits for your 3/8 inch ratchet set. Be sure the allen hex goes all the way into the screw head hole (which may require cleaning dirt out of the hole with a pick). You really don't want to round out one of these hex sockets because a bit was only part-way inserted. You can't go wrong by pre-treating the screws with penetrating oil. You will also want a good assortment of extensions to position the ratchet handle where you can reach it for the topside screws. Watch for possible interference when you jack the engine and use a block of wood to protect the oil pan. It only needs to lift enough to get the now mount in place. On re-assembly, the last bottom screw is always hard to get aligned; a helper can be enormously useful at this step.

I can’t recall if the lower bolts are regular 13mm heads or if they had socket head cap screws like the W123 - I’m sure someone here knows. Definitely do one side at a time - it makes it a lot easier to align things. The W126 is pretty much like this: 1.) Remove the lower bolts (2 -13mm or 5mm socket head cap screws) 2.) Remove the upper bolt (17mm) 3.) Release fan shroud - does not have to be removed. 4.) Place jack with block of wood under oil pan and lift the engine gently. You’ll see the engine stop moving after a few good pumps. 5.) Get back underneath the car and remove the mount. Make note of the orientation. Don’t forget the heat shield if there is one. 6.) Get the new mount in position and place heat shield on top, making note of the tank that sticks out and the hole it indexes into the heat shield. 7.) Place the top mount bolt back in the engine support. It won’t line up yet. 8.) Carefully lower the engine so the engine support is touching the top of the mount. Get the top bolt started. You may have to move the engine around a little bit to get it to line up. Be sure not to cross thread the bolt. 9.) Once the top bolt is in place and started, lower the jack completely. 10.) Try the lower bolts. One may not line up. You can use a flat bladed screwdriver to move the mount around to get the remaining bolt lined up. Don’t cross thread these - it’s easy to do (don’t ask me how I know this.) 11.) Tighten all three bolts. Move on to the other side. It’s one of those brute force sorts of jobs. Takes some “goomph” but not a lot of finesse. Be sure to buy genuine MB or Lemforder mounts. Anything else will collapse in a year.
