Sunforce 50032 15 Watt Solar Battery Charger - I have installed it on my Boat to keep my electronics deep cell batteries charged. Trolling motor batteries mostly. Works well. Pricy, but what is that money for anyway.
thank you sunforce and amazon

i am really pleased with the service i have received with amazon and sunforce. i have owned 22 solar panels made by 3 different manufacturers. i like and endorse sunforce panels over any of the others i have owned. reasons that i say this are i feel like the design and craftsmanship that they are a man's project and not a kids toy. i have had 4 sunforce panels in operation for 18 months with no problems and simple maintenance, just an occasionally cleaning and in the past year have added 6 more.
A Great Solar Panel

Great working.
Some people have commented that they received the charge controller with their panel but I did not. It must be a luck thing if you do receive one.
I have written a blog post about my setup:

I also built a little mount for the panel out of some random 2x4s. The pictures should be in the "picture" area.
Works well for boondocking RV, even with cracked frame

I installed one of these units, with the Sunforce charge controller, flat on the roof of our RV travel trailer (dual RV batteries). It is now 1 year old and has a couple of cracks in the plastic frame, but still seems to be working fine. Before installing it we could go 4 days before needing to charge the RV batteries in remote forest camping -- this panel adds 1 additional day. (By then we need to go to a commercial campground to do laundry, etc.; where I let the Intelli-power Charge Wizard charge from shore power.)
Pros:
* All automatic. Install it and forget it.
* Silent (no stupit noisy generators)!
Cons:
* Could use more power!!!
* Cracks in plastic frame?!?
This product works as advertised, and the price cannot be beat!

I purchased two of these panels for my camper, along with their 7 amp charge controller. I used them for five days to maintain my batteries while camping without electrical hook-ups. During that time, the batteries supplied the power for the lights, water pump, and ignition source for my propane-fired water heater and refrigerator. The charge on the batteries was never below 12.8 volts the entire time. I will purchase one or two more in the future to go even longer without paying for electricity while camping.
