I have two batteries mounted on the tong of my camper. I use 50 amp Anderson connectors in the camper to plug in my radios the batteries also have a 50 amp connector that I plug in my 100 watt solar panel into. I made a frame that allows me to elevate the panel and turn it so I get max wattage and it folds flat so I can store it. Even my truck has a 50 amp connector there is no way I'm not going to get on the air! It's no problem at a camp ground because the charger will take care of the needs but more often than not I' m not where there is power so far this set has worked well been 7 days with out 120 volt power. I have gone to great pains to reduce my 12 volt demands LED's, accumulators on the water system even the fan only draws a couple of amps.
