Does my disconnect switch have to be on or off? The storage area does not supply electric.Taking the batteries out is one big chore the are in a tight spot to get at.
Is your storage on your own property, just away from power, or in a lot somewhere? Frankly, a single 10-15w solar panel, wired directly to the batteries (using gator clips), should be doable on a portable stand/mount. Here's a nice-looking one that gets good reviews: http://www.northerntool.com/shop/tools/product_200328565_200328565.
