I have a detached garage with no power currently going to it. I want to build a small 12v to power the garage door, and two shop lights. I just wanted to get some help on the system design. Here is what I'm thinking so far:

2 of these solar panels https://www.renogy.com/100-watt-12-volt-monocrystalline-solar-panel/

Either this unit https://ebay.to/2IZuLSB or this https://amzn.to/35vDNQ9. I really like the option of plugging it into grid power if I choose to run my circular saw in the garage.

I'm still unsure of the battery to get. This system will be on 24/7 watching for the garage door remote to open/close the garage, and it would be nice to be able to turn the light on with a flip of the switch anytime. I have attached a copy of my garage door manual.

I would love to hear folks recommendations. Thanks in advance for all the help.
