I received my regular Snowy's email today and it includes an episode on 12v systems. Its a bit hard to follow as they use an analogy of rain, water tank and sprinkler to explain power generation, storage and consumption and find themselves flip flopping backwards and forwards between ah's and litres of water but the main points of how to pick the right componants for your particular needs and in what order is sound.
1, Work out consumption, 2, choose a battery which has enough capacity to keep up and 3, choose a panel big enough to fill it asap.
More 'in depth' episodes to follow.
Worth a listen if you can find it.
