How do you keep your RV, van, or overland rig powered up in the Sierra Nevada without relying on noisy generators? In this week’s episode of Sierra Rec Now, Charlie sits down with Jesse Asay and Tyler Bourns from Dragonfly Energy, the Reno-based team behind Battle Born Batteries®.

They dive into:

Why lithium batteries outperform traditional lead-acid in RVs and overlanding rigs
How solar, inverters, and Dragonfly Intelligence® make off-grid power simple and safe
Real-world stories of adventure rigs powered by lithium (yes, even Jacuzzis in the desert!)
