Hopefully this machine will not convert itself into a submarine.. haha..
We are starting to think at this phase of the project to simplify it and use a single deep cycle marine battery. One battery, no or'ing....
One panel about 200 watts or a couple at 125 watts, and some variety of charge controller, not sure what kind. We are not looking to generate 500 watts but at most half that. So now we need to pick panels and charge controllers.
The craft is large, just over 9 feet long and about 6 feet wide but we would like to not cover more than 2/3 of the top.
