Small (5W) solar panel does work to keep batteries okay

FYI, in case anyone is curious, just wanted to let you know that the 5W solar panel on our 98 PaceArrow was able to keep the batteries charged for 5 months during the winter in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada...

The OP is in "OTTAWA CANADA".....can you spell -35 degrees..... only a fool would let his expensive batteries sit for 6 months in those kind of temps.
