Boy, there are a lot of complicated schematics out there. Can someone point me to a simple 12v one with relatively inexpensive components?
Load:
Maxxair fan
On-demand pump for simple 5 gal water system
Phone chargers
A few small task LED lamps (if we stay up after dark, we tend to be outside)
A small inverter so I'm able to charge a laptop when I'm not on shore power
Battery:
Probably a 100 ah AGM, maybe expanding to a 2nd at some point
Charging systems:
Something like a Renogy 100 watt solar kit, with room to expand to no more than 300 watt total
Charging from shore power
Charging from alternator while driving
I'm familiar with shore power wire sizing from designing and building my house, garage, and workshop, I know 12v load wire sizing and fusing from my boat, but charging systems are new to me.
Where I really need help is selecting inexpensive components and getting the charging system(s) to work well together. I would appreciate suggestions helping me find schematics on this forum that are attuned to my very basic needs.
