Look on the back of the panels or spec sheet and see what the amp rating is add them together for total amp output your controller will have to be equal to or higher than the total
Its pretty simple Solar panel to controller......controller to batteries Fuse the panel and controller with a fuse 10% greater than amp output specified on back of the panel
If you use a start battery in a deep cycle application you are going to damage
the battery, Start batteries are not designed for deep cycle use. Look on the back of the solar panel it will tell you the Amp output it is probably around 7-8 Amps I would advise installing a deep cycle house battery...
Do a google search “wire gauge chart” this will tell you what size wire to run with factors of length of run and current (amps) I usually go up one gauge for a bullet proof factor you can find the chart on Blue Seas web site

First make sure your inverter is a pure sine wave or you are going to have issues with the freezer compressors running hot. 2nd look on the freezers UL plate and see what the ampere draw is and add all the electric appliances together to get a total amp load. At a full load you are going to be...
You hit about everything. Beach driving is becoming very limited because a lot of the large hotels and condos are pushing for private access. The main thing would be a sunshade with sand anchors, the kind that screw in the sand, you can get them at Walmart, a shower system for the sand and...
