Solar power
« on: February 25 2017, 10:25 »
My Bav37 will ultimately live on a swing mooring, whilst on the marina I have got used to leaving the fridge running and stocked.  So I have fitted a 200 watt PV on the top of the Bimini. I made a pretty
Decent stainless frame to attach it but then discovered th weight sagged the Bimini bows, so here is my latest extra frame to stiffen it all back up.  Also fitted a Blue Sky MPPT 30 amp regulator, nice unit with displays showing output from cell and input to battery.  Hopefully this will have enough grunt to keep the beers cool?
