[QUOTE="Ded Driver, post: 487998, member: 12692"] Haipoi, 2x 100W folding Panels, or at least total 150W should cover most usage. Some solar blankets I think are up around 200W or like this 250W on eBay for $369 [url]https://www.ebay.com.au/p/MaxRay-12v-250w-Folding-Solar-Panel-Blanket-Solar-Mat-Kit-Mono-Camping-Power-USB/15028948804[/url] depends how much gear you have draining it at night I only have a single 100W roof mounted panel, but I also have it wired into a DC-DC charge controller linked to the alternator. On a sunny day, even with a bit of occasional cloud, this panel runs my fridge & keeps the battery topped up allowing me to charge my other gear when I want. I have a 100Ahr Aux battery that will run my fridge in mild weather for up to a week with the panel disconnected or in total shade. [/QUOTE]
