Thank you Is there a difference between solar panels that people have on their roofs on houses and the Marine type we use on our boats ?

that's a fair size How many amps are you replacing I live in a marina sailing summer

Just about to do a bit of a audit

Hi all Looking now for solar panels for my boat. Any recommendations make and model I'll be looking to use around 80 to 100 amps. A nite ?

Exactly the same with me 10.4 by morning. With no use We got our boat in February 12 batteries were knackered replace them after 8 weeks just replace them again yesterday with Albion 120amp Also to be fair I didn't check my sterling battery charger and it was set to charge open lead acid batteries the ones I replaced them with sealed lead acid . At that time not to glued up We learn everyday Sorry got our boat in 2014

Cheers tony

Haha that's one way how to look at it . Cheers

Thanks What I meant to say was sealed or unsealed batteries just deciding what type to use also what size amps ???

Thank you all for all the help It's time for me now to choose my replacement batteries (What's amps size Now sure?) Lead acid not sealed ?

Cheers for that and thank you

Don't think so bob

I must say this is all good Reading and your all very clever in your field and knowledge I've been glued to my phone with all these comments. Over last two days very interesting I do know batteries have improved since 1975 some batteries carry fuzzy Logic so I'm led to believe I am taking onboard what you all are saying quite unbelievable really how people take batteries for granted as I did myself and I am listening to wotever has been saying All great suff Dr bob

tony b Thank you for some good information read all of it . also read all of the other people who's been adding good information everything is starting to take on with me I'll be taking more care and respect my batteries . Look after your batteries they will look after you ?

Thank you mariner
