Re: Solar panel for charging battery?
A 5 watt battery saver by icp has done me wonders. Go to Northerntool.com for lowest price. Dual battery set up on 88 johnson with 3 year old marine batteries. Solar panel is only hooked up when I am in dockage, recharges the batteries and maintains charge when i am not using the boat. And when I use it, starts right up on first or second crank. Before I had it, it would be a miracle if it starts on sixth try. Also, fluid level in battery doesn't fluctuate as much as it used to. Been checking battery every week and fluid is still full and charge is more than 75% all the time. I am a firm believer in SOLAR PANELS. My slip neighbors are all getting one since they have seen how it works.
