I have read so much on solar and electricity that I sometimes seem more confused than educated. I want to add a solar panel someday ($?) but I need a fridge for meds right away. So I am thinking of a 200 Ah battery connected to alternator for charging (with solenoid) then adding a 12 volt (cig litter) plug and an inline fuse and plugging the fridge into it. Don't need an inverter only 12 volt. don't need a charge controller as no panel yet. My fans and lights are on rechargeable batteries and I have plenty to last until I am "plugged in" again. I"ll add another battery, panel, charge controller and inverter as cash allows. Comments please.
