solar panel for a static caravan.

[electromonkey]

Hello all,

I am looking to install a solar panel set up for my in law's caravan.

They currently have a 110Amp battery supplying their electrics with a small portable solar panel connected to it. Their daily consumption if they were to have an "unlimited" power supply is around 90Amps max.

I would like to connect up a solar panel/s to keep the battery nicely topped up and would also like to install some kind of energy reader so they can keep an eye on their consumption and how much juice is left in the battery.

I'd be doing this on as small a budget as possible and the solar panels would not be permanently installed as the caravan park is closed for half of the year due to the lovely weather coming in from the Irish sea battering it during autumn and winter.

So what I am after is some info please on gear for this set up that anyone could recommend, keeping in mind that this isn't a "monies not an option" installation. Any other advice you feel I might benefit from would also be appreciated.

Cheers Ears.
