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.

What would a 60 watt solar panel power? How many watts for a small home?
What would be helpful is some chart or diagram that would put this in perspective for me. I thought it would be neat to save up for solar panels for my home and take the load off my bill. Also, it would be nice to have something portable. But, when they state 60 watts can I run a tv and lights or just charge some batteries?
