Njm, what panels, controller and batteries are in the plan?
I currently have a 150 watt Kyocera panel with a Go Power controller that came with the trailer along with a couple of cheap group 24 batteries that the dealer slapped in for the sale. It does little more than keep the batteries charged in storage.
I plan to add another panel of the same size and replace the existing controller with a Bogart Trimetric 2030 meter and 2030SC controller. For batteries, I would love to use 6V golf cart batteries but I just don't have the space for them. I haven't given up on those entirely, but I may have to settle on a pair of Costco 12V Group 27s. My brother has this setup with 6V batteries and it works very well.
