Visitors and Solar

1
I had a visit from Bill and Margaret Sullivan (Nambucca Heads) yesterday as they passed through on their way to the Great Ocean Road and they had visited Brian Reed on their way to my place.  The website at work!
 
I was impressed with the solar panel installation but immediately forgot the name of it.  Bill, when you get home, please remind me what it was.

Hi Les Marg and i just arrived home after 3 weeks touring . The
specs of our solar set up are as follows.

panel. Kyocera 12v 130watt. available rainbow power company $1100
with free delivery. 8 months ago.
PV charge controller. Manson sbc.7120 purchased on ebay about 100
bucks.
Battery. 100 ah Deep cycle sealed.
240 volt charger. CTEK 3.5 AH SMART CHARGER. $120.


This system ran our engel fridge, lights ,water pump, charged phones
via 150 watt inverter for 3 weeks without plugging into mains power.
Love it.
We travelled 4300 km in 19 days average fuel consumption 12.88
litres per 100 km. This included 4wd g gear stuff and Sydney grid
locked traffic. No measurable oil or water consumption. I"m looking
at lpg conversion.
Brian and Les thanks for hospitality.
