solar panel.

Tis horses for courses and we all have different requirements, not to mention different depths of pockets.

The biggest factor is as biggirafe says what you use. We use electrical appliances so that we can make full use of our solar energy. Of course if we used more gas then we wouldn't use so much solar. But we would then be buying more gas. We are happy with using our appliances as its more like home

Don - there are several solar output calculators around that will give you output in amps per day - let me know if you would like one sending

I used a Spreadsheet to work out my needs.
Input all your equipment and Wattage, The amount of daylight hours, used the shortesr day. And the programe then worked out and told you what size panel and amount of amph battery required.
Never had any problem being parked up.
