[QUOTE="davent, post: 359553, member: 6002"] I have a 160w solar panel i got from e bay, make sure when you buy your kit, it includes a controller, most do, but some dont. That puts out about 7 amph in good conditions, and with a 100amph agm battery, ive never been short on power yet.....yet! I run a fridge, and re charge my detector batteries, phone, headtorch,sometimes my wireless headphones (if i use them) .Fargot, i also have a ryobi cordless fan that runs on drill batterie, plus 1, also have a car charger for that and 3 or 4 batteries.) I also recently bought a very cheap inverter gennerator (kings, about $400) with the intention of topping up the battery incase of bad weather. Also have a 36amph waco cool power pack, which comes in handy, use it mainly for LED lighting around the camp, and to rechage my little 7inch dvd/usb player. Can run the fridge as well, but only ever used it to run the fridge overnight once, and when driving to a camp spot, no worries, can also be charged via cig adaptor in the car, but takes a while. Good back up. In the not to distant future, Ill hook up a permanent panel to the top of my camper trailer, and run another battery, which will allow me to run 2 fridges, one as a freezer. [/QUOTE]
