Well since I'm going to be boondocking some this summer I have decided to begin my SOLAR adventure. I plan on buying my batteries this weekend. Starting off with 2 6V batteries any advice on manufacturer and such.
Do any energy audit first this will tell you what size battery bank you will need. Two 6 volt batteries may be fine or the audit may tell you that more are needed. Even though this is a pita it is very important to do.
Once you know the battery bank size needed then you can figure out what you need in the way of solar panels.
