[QUOTE="condor22, post: 555711, member: 1932"] I'm kinda "expecting the unexpected" lol. I know pretty well what the Engel does as it is currently set, but not balanced with a solar input. today was a top of 16 C, but it was 20-21 in the back of the 4x4. Which goes to show that even in crappy weather the car absorbs more heat than ambient. I know the Engel will use approx. 24 AH over 24 hours in this weather, what I don't know is how much of that is replaced by solar. I do have to go out tomorrow, but thanks to my "plug n play" power box, I can disconnect the BCDC charger and leave solar on, which will effectively see the aux battery see no travel. :) [/QUOTE]
