Solar Panels
Solar Panels are an excellent addition to smaller power systems for essentially ‘free power’ i.e. no fuel
expenditure, they are automatic and maintenance free (apart from checking the vehicle electrics every year).
The obvious draw back to a solar panel is the weather issue; they only work effectively in bright conditions (some are better that others depending on the technology they use). So if you spend your time in South of France and Spain they are a very good option, or if you use very little power and are happy starting the engine to boost your batteries every now and again.
Conrad Anderson can supply and fit most available sizes of solar panel however, 90w and 125w are the most popular.

The first step to adding any power source to a system is working out how much power you are going to need and then deciding which solutions are the best according to that. See our articles on building basic, moderate and heavy duty power systems as a guide to system design or talk to a member of the sales team for more information. |
