thats not always true, I have a solar system that normaly had my batteries at 100% by noon.
last fall I was camping and it was cold, cloudy and overcast for 3 days and I got down to about 50% on my deep cycle GC batteries. a DC to DC charger would have been handy to top up my bateries in thoes types of conditions.
