Solar power
Can any Fine Bongo owner recommend a solar panel for the leisure battery. I am hoping to be able to rough camp & be independent, running the fridge etc. Cheers Clive in sunny Jersey.

Re: Solar power
The best assured quality and designed to fit a Bongo AFT is from Solar Camper Solutions http://www.solarcampersolutions.co.uk/
Roger is also on here from time to time, not the cheapest but there are good reasons if you want reliability!

Re: Solar power
I've just done my own install of a 100w semi-flexi panel, MPPT charger and remote LCD, quite easy and very satisfying - but would have been difficult without this forum and the excellent wisdom which populates it! Roger, Geoff and others have provided lots of help with basic electrical issues regarding which I had no prior knowledge.
The panel has been throwing plenty of watts into my LB all weekend on a trip to Cornwall - cold beers for the duration
PM me if you want a description of my approach
