Powerfilm Solar 30W

[Fast Eddy]

When I camp, my rig is base camp for a week or more at a time.
I am not packing up everyday and moving onto another destination where the alternator will keep the battery charged up, so solar makes perfect sense for me.

I agree with the nerd effect; it is nice to have a solar.

- I will need it in Africa
- Therefore I like to have two separate electronic systems: lights/ignition & auxiliary; I the worst case I don't have light in the evening, but I won't drain the start batteries
- If I have a problem with any of my batteries, I can always recharge them even in the middle of the Sahara without help of anybody. Yes, slow, but it will always work...
- So except nerd factor, it is also a safety option

There is no question that solar panels have their place. I kinda like the stick-on 42w ones the RVers use.
