We plan to start spending a lot of time in the field, working on thermal and mapping missions.
Does anyone have a charging set-up for in the back of an enclosed trailer, using 12V batteries, converters, solar, etc?
What do you suggest for charging the batteries the quickest? I was thinking maybe a 12 volt charger, with solar charger on 12 volt batter banks, would draw less off the batteries than a converter?
Anyone have a design and/or photos being used? I am also thinking I probably should have 6 batteries, so that there are five to go through while charging? since about 20 minutes per battery to discharge and approximately 100 minutes to charge?
Any suggestions, ideas, input?
Thank you in advance,
