Is solar the way to go?
Looking for some input from those of you that use solar to charge your battery. What are good kits to buy that are affordable and portable? How long does it take you to charge in all conditions? Is so...

As stated before- it all depends on how you use your rig and your personal situation. For us, solar is wonderful. We boondock for weeks on end without ever needing to fire up a generator (unless we want to use the microwave for a couple of minutes). BUT- it's just the 2 of us, we have converted to LEDs etc.
With our usage, we are generally back to full charge after 3 hours of good sun or 6-8 of partly cloudy (thats with 120 watts of solar and 2 12 volts). You have a lot of research to do, but my advise is- Keep it simple!
