CPAP battery solar charging question
I purchased a Pilot 12 Plus battery to use with my CPAP machine while off grid. I’m thinking of getting a Colman 55W solar kit to top up the battery while on 2/3 night camping trips. I don’t know much...

MrBiggles, with 2 6v golf cart batteries you have over 200 amp hrs available, the Pilot 12 plus has 19 Amp hrs.
Your existing batteries are much more capable. If you are truly afraid to use the same batteries that power the rest of your RV, get an additional 100 Amp hr AGM put it in the pass thru and use it with 100 watts of solar. You would have more power available, and the ability if you experience long rainy spells to switch over to the main batteries in a pinch, as well as being able to charge with jumper cables from the tow vehicle.
