can anyone instruct me on a solar energy setup to run two lamps with 60 watt bulbs for backup lights?
just in case of power outage during a storm - enough for maybe 9 hrs
ok .... so if i just wanted to go with the set up what size would the panel need to be?
All you need is a 12 volt car battery, a 300 watt power converter and a solar panel with a voltage regulator.
The car battery powers the power converter which changes the voltage to 110 AC. which powers the light bulbs, and the solar panel recharges the car battery. The voltage regulator keeps the battery from being over-charged.
The larger the solar panel, the faster it would recharge the battery. Since solar panels do not need direct sunlight to generate power, larger solar panels would work better on cloudy days or ambient light conditions. Solar panels are expensive, so it would be more cost effective just to buy a couple of extra flashlights. However, with the setup I described, you would also be able to run small appliances such as a tv or computer durring power outages.
