Apr 6th
Question by chris:
How do I attach an LED bulb to a solar panel, battery and a switch?
This seems easy enough but nobody knows how to do it. I need to make a lighting system for a boat. I want it to be solar powered. All I need is a way to get a solar panel attached to a battery for storage and then a switch so I can turn it on at night. The boat is wired for battery power and I have yet to find a easy lighting system that I can just make my own light fixture for. There are so many choices if I want it for a garden but for marine applications they will rust. please help,.

CHARGING A BATTERY WITH A SOLAR PANEL?
Feb 4th
Question by Conrad:
Charging a battery with a solar panel?
I have a boat with an automatic bilge pump, and I want to hook up my battery ( 12 volt deep cycle marine) to a solar panel so that it maintains its charge when the bilge pump kicks on, the bilge pump will only kick on when it rains. I want to know what minimum specs the solar panel should have to maintain my batteries charge. The bilge pump will likely only run for an hour or two a week at most. Thanks in advance for the help.

Question by :
i have a solar panel and want to connect it to a battery that charges via a normal 115V AC outlet?
the solar panel has two alligator clamps (like jumper cables) at the end, I guess to charge a battery.
I guess I need some device I can hook the alligator clamps to that has a 115V plug on the other end I can plug the battery charger into?
