Hi all. Just when I though I had things sorted out with solor power got to think
again.On the latest trip running 2x40lt engels (1fridge-1freezer). 2x80and1x75watt
panels. The temp during the day was 36-40deg and down 20 overnight. I found
that the engels were cycling continuious.the freezer one battling to get down to
-7. I used to turn it back down to try and get through the night. In the morning
when checking the battery with a multi meter was down to to about 12.30.
Would this be doing the battery any damage letting it drop this low every day?
Am now thinking that a small gen going for a couple of hrs at night might ease
the drain on the battery.or might have let it get cooler before i go again.
Cheers Brian
Yer Rox not to far out with your guess.
