There is NO odour ever and runs near silently while the loo is in use and draws about...

I'm very much a 'newchum' on the subject of power requirements for life on the road, and have been devouring old postings about solar & batteries & setups.

Or purchasing a generator/ inverter (around the $500 to$1000 mark). the generator will be the cheaper option, but my concern is the noise....

I want to replace the two 100Ah AGM house batteries in my caravan.

We have 2 x 120w solarking panels on our poptop, seems like one is now faulty, and of course I that exact size one is not available now. so it looks like I will need to replace both panels, we only use about 25 amps overnight from our 100 amp lithium, so anything from 240 to 300 watts is ample for us (were inWA,...

I'm looking to buy a couple of solar panels around 100W each; looking at the specs of the two types I cannot see a lot of difference but as mono are about 50% more expensive than ploy I assume there is a difference and guess that it is in output for given illumination. Your opinions and comments please peop...
