Get up to 50% more out of your Adventure Kings solar panel<\/a> with these expert tips.<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n First, you need to have them constantly pointed at the sun.<\/span><\/p>\n Second, you\u2019ve got to keep your panels clean! <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n The last tip is to choose a panel that suits you \u2013 it\u2019s not always the case that bigger is better as it means it\u2019s harder to lug around or takes up more space on your roof. As an example for choosing the best panel to suit your needs:<\/span><\/p>\n TOTAL: 52AH per day<\/p>\n <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n The Adventure Kings 160Watt<\/a> panel has peak output just under 9Amps. Assuming 10 hours of sunlight, you\u2019ll get up to 90A\/H per day \u2013 plenty to cover your usage and keep your deep cycle battery charged.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n To do this you\u2019ll need to work out the power use of your accessories and appliances and then look at the output of solar panels. Using a fridge 24 hours a day, some camp lights and even an inverter is easily covered by the Adventure Kings 160 watt panel<\/a>. With a peak output of 8.75 Amps, in ideal conditions, over a full 12 hours of daylight you could expect up to 100 Amp hours per day being recharged into your battery.<\/span><\/p>\n Whatever you do, the biggest tip is to make sure you shop around and find a solar panel<\/a> that suits your particular requirements. Look for a panel with a built in solar regulator, particularly if your dual battery charger doesn\u2019t have an inbuilt regulator. Then it\u2019s as simple as pointing it at the sun and then using the alligator clamps to connect it to your battery<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Get up to 50% more out of your Adventure Kings solar panel with these expert tips.
