Solar charging single battery system.

Hi. I have a stock 2017 chev truck. In the summer i like to use it as a glorified stereo when I’m at the cottage. Is it safe to wire a 30w solar panel and 7amp charge controller directly to the battery so that I can power my battery a bit without having to run the truck?
