[QUOTE="Ded Driver, post: 466894, member: 12692"] update: Im very happy with my system so far. Lead Crystal battery + Projecta 45A DC-DC charge controller + 100W solar panel Im finding the solar panel more than covers my fridge on sunny days, and tops up the battery. I have a dual voltmeter on the circuit shows me battery & solar input. I have a manual circuit breaker under the bonnet between the 2 batteries (for alternator charging), & i flick this in once a week or so to ensure ther battery gets a full current top-up as required. Im still procrastinating on whether or not to install the solenoid that I have .... I like manual operation on most stuff, plus still need a breaker/fuse anyway. An interesting point on the LC battery ... my electronic diagnostic unit (analyses battery & alternator charging, & has proven correct on many occassions now) cannot analyse the Lead Crystal Battery, I assume due its different chemical makeup.
