Can Anybody recommend.....
I'm thinking solar power charging system and don't know how well they work and how long it takes to charge a low deep cell battery. If somebody has done this I would be happy to hear from you thank you 😎

A kit like this can charge a 100ah battery in 1-2 days.

It needs to be charged in one day to make it worthwhile

After viewing several solar units
I think I'm better off with a small camping gas generator
It would be about the same amount of money if not less Rain 🌧🌦or shine ✨😎

I have a 270 watt Panel and a 30 AMP MPPT charge controller I use on my travel trailer that I use to recharge the 200AH of 12V deep cycle FLA batteries. Paid $165 for the panel and another $130 for the charge controller. Works great for me. Last week in Sequoia I was producing 12.4 amps at 14.6 volts (180 watts) at 8:30 in the morning. My batteries were fully recharged around noon after being used most of night for heat. Heater (propane with 12V fan) turned on at 1 AM and ran about 1/2 the time until about 7 AM. Outside temp got into the 30s.

I'm use to plugging in 2 battery charges
At the same time a 6amp and a 10amp and charging two batteries at once. And don't solar panels use a battery to store power that eventually goes bad.

The controller goes straight to your battery. No extra charger needed. No gas, no fumes, no neighbors complaining about generator noise.

I new that one was coming about the
noise, I'll probably put a canvas tarp around my generator to contain the noise gas and fumes don't matter I have an outboard

Honestly if you had to send the night 🌙
On the water 💧where would you want to be, excluding a boat 🚢. Sitting in a kayak with a wet butt.
Stting in a kayak with a lawn chair. Or laying down in a canoe. I used to take after noon naps
