START WITH YOUR DAY

The trip sets
the questions.

A battery for hiking and a battery for a car-camping fridge solve different problems. Write down what you plan to power, the operating hours and your reliable recharge opportunities. Then check the complete carrying load.

A solar panel is a possible recharge source, not a guaranteed daily energy allowance. Weather and shade can change the trip. Check your setup without solar first, then explore what a compatible panel might add.

Plan the devices.

Phones, lights and fans are a modest starting point. A fridge, heater or cooking appliance changes both the energy and output questions.

Size the time between charges.

Use the time you need each device to run, not just how long you will be away. Our first estimator shows its assumptions and will tell you if none of the shortlist is large enough.
