I am looking at the pros & cons of buying extra lipo batteries or setting up a solar charging system for my electric model RC planes that i carry on an 8x4 trailer, so room for a solar set up is not a problem. Now the lipos i use for the RC planes are 5000mah 14.8 volts at a cost of around £45.00 each & i have a lipo charger that uses 12v x 120watt to charge a single battery or 240 watt to charge 2.
If i take a fully charge 110amp 12-volt battery with me "fully charged from home" what sort of solar panel size would help to top this up. Or is it a case of the bigger the better.
I also have a 40amp solar charger/controller. Also, there is no electric were we go & generators are not allowed.
