I wanted to start a new thread to keep the conversation going about solar.
I had been thinking of adding a solar panel to our Palm Beach to keep the house batteries topped up. We have loads of sunshine in California, and we rarely use the coach for more than 2 days sitting dry. I've seen what Greg (solarsonic?) <http://solar-sonic.com/> has done with his coaches and though it's very interesting it's also well beyond anything I would attempt.
How do you keep the solar panels from boiling the batteries - would they connect to my Progressive Dynamics charger and use its maintenance mode?
If there is a good write-up about solar out there I'd love to read it.
