200+ watts.  So one panel.
And at least 5 days of battery autonomy.  That is minimal.
10x24x5=1200 watt hours.  100 amp hours for 12 volts, 50 amp hours for 24 
volts.

Subject: [AFMUG] Solar panel capacity

Never thought I'd see the day where I had to deal with this, but I have a site 
where they're taking down the house/power and living in a trailer.  Trailer has 
to have Internet but can't provide the power (sigh). 

The objective now is to have a Force200+Nano5 on a pole out in the yard for 
service.  Figure this is about 10 watt load.  How much panel/battery do I need? 
 This is not mission critical and only needs to run for months, so we don't 
have to deal with winter nights.

Is there a place we can get panels ordered/shipped in the next day or two?
