And in regard to your question about the solar panels, I had them done at the dealership - electrical freaks me out a bit. Everything was already roughed in for it. There's also a place in town (in Calgary) called Hobo Camper Country. Really small place that doesn't look like much, but they have a ton of stuff and their service department is awesome. Might be a little cheaper than a lot of other places. Don't quote me on that though.....

The shut off I picked up was this:

Then I just picked up a starter to switch cable from Canadian Tire (

I will check out the place you mentioned for solar. All I need when it comes to solar power is for my battery's to be able to run my lights when needed, a few hours of the stereo and to keep my batteries at a reasonable level during the 2 week gaps between my trips. I am sure I can get by with a rather small system.
