Unless there is a capacity issue, it is easier to do a permanent fixed roof installation. I prefer high voltage panels mated to an MPPT charge controller.
800 watts of panels and 400 amp-hours of storage (I prefer SiO2) may nearly eliminate generator use.
Use welding cable, down the fridge chimney, for the installation and have fun!
Thanks Don. That much battery and panel is probably out due to being a TC. And with that much panel, I'd probably have to rent the site next to mine to set up that much solar and a P'ed-off Rottweiler to guard it! Ha ha ha ;)
I'm thinking a couple 100-160 w panels and a couple Li batt's. I have been watching your posts on the SiO2 batt's and have bookmarked some links to look at. So thanks for that info. It's just the made in China that is a concern though I know you've referenced one company is a Canadian company and hopefully they are holding the manufacturer to high standards of quality.
Thanks!
