Any advice on any other panel would be gratefully accepted! Great site for help and information!
Thanks.

Hi,
We have a Timberland LWB panel van conversion with a 60 watt solar panel which we have had for the last ten years. I've got two 100amp leisure batteries which are linked to the engine battery by a battery master. The panel keeps all three batteries topped up throughout the year.
We don't have a TV, we have a 150 watt inverter for charging camera/phone/razor. We run the laptop with a 120watt DC power adapter.
