Solar Panels
I agree Jack I did a cost comparison on a large panel display with
the controllers and wiring and would have to use it for many many years before I would have even broke even. I installed the Heart 2500 with the link 1000 to quickly replace the power removed from the batteries from late afternoon thru the night. Start the generator up when I get up in the morning and let it run for an hour after breakfast. You can buy an awful lot of diesel fuel for what it costs to buy solar panels. And the best thing is that you have to exercise the generator weekly anyway so why not do it when its productive? tom Warner 1982 FC35 Vernon Center,NY At 11:45 AM 3/3/2006, you wrote: >Hi Trudy, > > I found the BB draws too much continuous power for solar panels > to be very useful.
