Could Our Tiny Home Go OFF-GRID... Forever?

What would REALLY happen if we disconnected our tiny home from the grid — today, forever — in the middle of a cold Ontario winter? In this video, I shut off the power, test our entire system, install brand-new solar tech, and break down exactly what we could (and couldn’t) live without if we went fully off-grid again. After 7 years using Renogy solar products across van life and our homestead, we’re upgrading our winter setup with their new Shadow Flux solar panels — designed to generate power even when parts of the panel are covered by snow, shade, or leaves. This is a game-changer for winter homesteading, where sunlight is limited and storms knock out power often. Thanks to Renogy for Sponsoring this video! 🔥 RENOGY BLACK FRIDAY SALE TILL DEC.15TH!
