Hello, just after some advice on a temporary solar set up. Mainly around fixing to the roof.
Off to Le Man's 24 he race mid June, unfortunately no hookup on the site this year.
Looking at Solar to keep the fridge running, and charge up a power station for 3 x mobiles and a speaker. I'd hope the power station would last three or four days and then can be charged from the 12v inside the van.
I'm not keen on drilling through the pop top roof, most of the time we have EHU on sites and worried a portable panel on the floor would get stolen when we are away from the van.
I was thinking about purchasing a flexible Renogy panel and whilst setting up attaching it to the roof using strong velcro and running the wiring through the front window underneath the wind deflectors.
The other option is to buy one of the traditional metal framed panels and attached the velcro to the metal.
Is it going to be much more beneficial spending a bit extra buying an MPPT controller over a PWM?
Thanks
