Took the plunge today and bought an 80 watt solar powered charger for the camper.

Hi Derek,
Have used a solar panel on my boat for years saves a lot of headaches, no need for a battery charger. As soon as i get home from a fishing trip and washed down, hook up the panel and the battery gets a steady trickle, ready for next time.( Gel filled maintenance free deep cycle type) What sort of batteries do you have fitted in the camper?

When I bought the solar unit, the sparky from the shop talked to me about putting in a charging system similar to to a duel battery system. What he emphasized is that when I go somewhere at least I will arrive with the battery on the trailer fully charged. Not only that, a couple of days of heavy rain and dark cloud and the solar will be limited. I can then connect to the car and run it for a while.

Today I ordered the following kit from Derek Bester at Sidewinder http://www.sidewinder.com.au

Will I ever stop buying stuff for this camper. Roll Eyes
