We have an 88FC35 with a 8KW diesel generator but there are certain
locations I would like to go and not fire up that noisy beast! I would
like to go solar or maybe even wind generator, I need to know where
should I start. I have 4 house batteries, 6 volts each, plus 2 start
and 1 generator start battery and I would like to be able to go 60 -
75% solar. Is this conceivable? Where do I need to start? I'm
somewhat mechanically challanged but I do know how to hold a
screwdriver. I'm not really interested in a plug & go system, I think
a pieced component system would be cheaper but I will listen to
experience. Anyone with a solar setup willing to share I would greatly
appreciate it.
