Hi all,
I have very limited knowledge of solar and would really appreciate advice as to components and where to source them.
I have a local IT business and have been asked to install network on a farm. Some of the points are remote with no mains power, so need to be solar. I really didn't think it would be an issue as small panels/batteries/controllers now seem to be commonly included with cameras and lights. However....
Power needed is max around 20W with, say, a 3 day reserve. The units I use need between 12 and 30V but, as they can become unstable at the lower end, I like to use around 18 to 24V which could either come from 2 off 12V batteries or a DC/DC boost.
Ideally, I'd like to obtain a complete package of panel, mountings, box, charge controller and battery.
Thanks for any help,
Adam
