<p>I would say 100 to 200 watts is a decent power though whatever is available. 12v nominal is best though 24v works too. Higher voltage makes it hard to find a good MPPT charge controller.</p>

Greetings.<br>
Can anyone give specifications for a solar panel? I'd like<br>
to answer this message from Eric Broadbent (<a href="mailto:ebroadbent@me.com" target="_blank">ebroadbent@me.com</a>)<br>

Hi Dana - this is a response to my request for panels from<br>
a person who runs a solar firm.<br>
I should have known to be more specific. Let me know<br>
if you can get any specs - and I'll relay them back to him<br>
Thanks,<br>
<br>
-Eric<br>
