Hi All
Am picking up our new caravan in Jan 2018 and it is being fitted out with a 120 watt solar roof panel, First question we have? is can this be turned off while van is undercover wrap in storage over winter? as van will be fully covered by 7 ply breathable cover!
Second question: As newbie's to this type of tech what benefits will this give our van apart from trickle charge for new battery?
We don't go off club sites so will always be hooked up to mains electric except when on storage site that has No Electric hook ups available
For anyone wondering why we have had this fitted it came as part of a dealer special to sweeten the deal in parting with our money! we thought it was a good idea to have it fitted at factory? and would possibly add value to the van?
But using it and understanding how it benefits us not sure hence the questions to more experienced caravaners?
await replies and thanks for all the assistance.
