[QUOTE=Thanks for answering a whole bunch of questions that I was afraid to ask...
The Missus and I are still looking at "kits"*** for this; we just need to screw our courage on a little bit tighter!
*** We've got our sights set on a 400 watt four-panel kit from Renogy...[/QUOTE]
Rhenology makes a decent kit. GoPower also makes a kit, but they are very impressed with themselves and cost also double what Rhenology charges. Check wire sizes as sometimes they skimp on wire sizes in kits. Not such a concern with MPPT controllers. I chose to go the pieces and parts route - Flexible panels from Windy Nation and a Bogart SC-2030 controller that goes with my Trimetric battery monitor. The portable panel with the SC-2030 has been keeping my batteries in great shape all winter.
