I wanna put a 25 watt or so solar panel on my truck just to keep a little trickle charge in it when it's not being used and not near the house. I had a all in one little gizmo but it stopped working and didn't do much to begin with...
I know I need a controller first. Found the battery tender solar jr which seems to meet the specs.
I want to mount the controller under the hood permenantly, run the wires into the cab and install a plug on the dash so I can stick the panel on against the windshield or throw it on the roof.
I found this for a panel
Newpowa 30 watt panel
These two gizmos seem good? Anything else I need besides just wiring them up?
