Winter= not much sun. 10 watts = not many watts. No need for a regulator. However they (non MPPT type) are very cheap, so why not fit...

I would imagine it needs to go to the nearest boat negative or all the way to the battery negative is there is nothing near by. It's...

Well it could be an elaborate scam to get you to spend an extra £20 a winter, or it could be that compressor dehumidifiers can be a fire...

How will a 18a or 25a B2B charge the batteries faster than a 40a alternator ? If you charge LA batteries at 15+ volts they aren't going...

Same here. I use the handheld probably 90% of the time as it is convenient and does the job.

Can't see any reason to use a B2B with you current batteries. Their charge rate is limited to what they can accept rather than the...

If you can get the original sales contract where VAT is paid and shown on the receipt, then you have a boat that is "EU goods" ... this...
