Solar Panel for Caravan

[Rosscow]

Hi All,

I'm interested in getting off the beaten track with the caravan so think I need to go down the solar panel route.

We have a 2008 Ace Jubilee Equerry, which has a 110ah leisure battery fitted.

What portable solar panel would I need to keep this topped up enough for 'normal' use (This doesn't include watching the TV or using a hairdryer. Presume we could charge iPhoes/iPads though?).

I've heard of people fitting 2nd batteries as well but this seems a lot of extra weight and also I obviously don't have room for 2 batteries in my battery compartment.

I was thinking something along the lines of the 90Wp version of this:

Any advice gratefully received

Thanks, Lou.

So is your one a fixed panel on the roof or is it a foldable, portable one?

Sounds like an awful lot of hassle to be honest.

May just resort to carrying a charged spare 110ah battery in the car and just swap them over when one dies!!
