Re: [AFMUG] solar question

Agreed! My sizing was based on my willingness to take generator to the site if there was no charging for 4.5 days (which I never had to do last winter, but last winter seemed nicer than ones prior - I'm in Western SD). Chucks battery sizing will at least double that run time and probably more (depending on battery temp) and the additional panels will charge them more quickly after extended run down.

You could probably get away with 500 watts of panels, like Jesse said, but if you want to be sure it's never going to have problems, go with Chuck's numbers. Mathew Ok what size solar panels are we talking about jesse is saying 2 x 250 watt panels is that correct?

I typically see close to for 4 watts average on ours, but it's better to err on the high side, so I'd plan for about 50 watts on that setup.     On Tue, Jul 5, 2016 at 9:47 AM, Chuck McCown <ch...@wbmfg.com> wrote: How many watts of load does that total? -----Original Message----- From: Tim Reichhart Sent: Tuesday, July 05, 2016 8:42 AM To: af@afmug.com Subject: [AFMUG] solar question   Hey Guys I need to know what kind of size of solar setup I need to be able power 4 rockets,2 powerbeam m5 500, 1 rb2011ils-in, 1 nanostation m2 this site have no option for power from power company and this location in northwest ohio.
