Mobile Solar Panels ? . . . - How I Did It - There is loads of background to this . . . . . but for now here is a vid for you all. =] Just remember W = V*A and as a general rule a good 100W panel will give you up to 6A charge with good sun. 25w = 1.5A 50W = 3A 100w = 6A 200w = 12A 300w = 18A...

Yep, readily available from Halfords, Amazon etc.

This weeks Auto Express magazine has a mini test of them and the PV Logic 8w and Photonic Universe 10w ones come out top. Worth a peek in the mag at your local newsagent!

I have the Ecoworthy 10W.

Facing South, but shaded after pm. Only any good from April-September, after that it gives nothing useful.

Do you already have solar panel(s) & a leisure battery on your van?

It might still make enough to stop the plates in the battery furring up?

Doubt it, it won't keep mine above 12v in winter, but I do have a tracker.

If I was buying again I'd go 50w.

Fwiw...

My test showed you needed 50w for more. With a solar controller.

I had no luck with 5/10/20w panels... And the direct plug in ones are deffo not good. (No controller)
