Should I use a solar generator or build a DIY electrical system for my overland vehicle? I try to answer this question by comparing a DIY system built around a Li Time Battery and a solar generator with the same lithium iron phosphate battery chemistry.

Which one is better?
It depends on the type of "overlanding" you do. If you are setting up your daily driver for occasional camping trips, then the solar generator wins thanks to its ability to meet most campers electrical needs without installation and its ability to be easily removed from the vehicle once the camping trip is done. If you are setting up a vehicle for the purpose of long term overlanding, then the DIY system wins thanks to its ability to be customized to meet your personal needs both in collecting power and delivering it conveniently where you need it throughout your vehicle.
