Thanks, AlbertaNewbie! Calgary is a lot closer, about 800 km. shipping should be reasonable. I see a 100 watt kit with charge controller that looks about right for me. $300. Any advice on this? http://solarwholesaler.ca/shop/100-watt-12v-rv-boat-solar-kit-starting-at-296-89/
It's a kit that you will quickly outgrow and replace. Plus ifnyou are thinking $300 is all it is think again. You need to add grommet cc to battery cable, lugs, etc, probably at least $100 in material.
Research research research and then look at the controllers to start, and add panels afterward. For a decent base kit to build off of look at about $600, $300 for controller, $300 for panel, mounts wiring and accessories, based on our cdn costs.
Also check out wegosolar, very decent shipping rates vs anybody else.
