Solar Panel Thingy

 It looks very like the one I won for writing a review on UKcampsites website and it came with alligator clips to put on the battery - I got mine properly wired onto the battery at service time with a little socket to plug into when you set up - in the battery locker.   But someone with more knowledge will come along soon! 

Looks Ok to me.  Your only difficulty is finding somewhere to attach the crocodile clips to your battery terminals.   Pipal is correct and there are better ways of doing it, ideally the controller should be close to the battery but it will work.  For what it is worth I have AGM batteries and my controller had an option of settings for standard wet cell and Gel batteries. I contacted the battery manufacturer and they advised me to use the standard setting for an AGM battery. 

interesting, i asked the same question regarding the MH charger and my AGM batteries....the choices were Gel and Wet....inwas advised (renowned battery and charger specialist) to use Gel to ensure a higher charge voltage, needed by the AGM but not attainable on a Wet profile.

having said that, i have no idea what my SP contoller has in the way of charging profiles.....however, the batteries are always kept fully charged when on the drive....

Thank you all - I've just ordered it. I'm sure I'll be back for help installing it - in fact I know I will! In the meantime here is a picture of my only DIY electrical installation so far - fairy lights via AAA batteries!

I installed a morning star controller and I emailed Banner the charging profiles listed by Morningstar for flooded and Gel batteries.  The reply came back so say use the flooded setting.  I must admit I was surprised at the answer.
