Hi. I'm just about to take the plunge with solar.
looking on ebay, I can get a victron 175 solar panel kit with their own mppt controller and wiring for £379.
I was also looking to buy a ctek d250se to link from alternator, at another £250.
Do I need both though?
Would the solar panel be enough for a typical camper set up? Looking at compressor fridge, water pump, 5 x led lights, 2 x reading lights, tv, 3 x USB chargers. ( obviously not all on together)
I'd then fit an ehu with 2 240v sockets instead of the ctek for longer breaks on sites with hook up.
Thoughts appreciated.
