I have two solar panels that were going to be trashed at work. I want to use them to charge batteries on my RV but i noticed they put out around 20 volts in direct sunlight. So i am wondering:
-isn’t this way too much voltage for a 12 volt system?
-do a need some sort of a regulator connected to keep them from overcharging?

How To Convert DC Power To Solar Power?
I have a sensor outside that we use 6 AA batteries to run (9 volts total). anyone know how I can convert it to solar power, and charge a battery to keep it going 24-7. I know little about electronics, but not when it comes to solar, and trying to charge, and use power at same time.
THIS UNIT NEEDS TO SAY ON 24/7 !!!!!!!!!! (even at night)

What is capacity hour rate for solar power batteries?
I’m looking a battery for use with solar power and it has the following specs.
Volts 12
Capacity @ 20-hr rate 120
Capacity @ 100-hr rate 145
How does this translate into running a 1000 watt appliance and how long you can run it with this battery.
