Review on DuraVolt 8.3 Watt Marine Solar Panel Battery Charger - Efficient and Reliable Charging Solution by Jim Bijelic

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Charging our crappy OEM marine battery on a road trailer

Set up this panel to charge our battery while it's being stored outside in a mini warehouse. Our battery continued to run low. We installed a switch on the battery and used the items from the battery cable kit > we need to purchase stainless steel nuts to attach the cables to the battery. I also bought gun locks and a sidecar lock to keep the fairing from coming loose. So far the panel has kept the battery fully charged. When we take the trailer we can easily unlock the fairing and disconnect it with the quick couplers on the fairing. For a small investment, we can stop worrying about whether the battery has enough power to power our electric towbar.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Lots of stuff
