I have been looking around to see what is what regarding Solar Stuff. There is quite a range of panels some big some small but I don't think you can go wrong for a tenner.

I have one of these - they are great for keeping the battery topped up when the vehicle is left standing for months on end but I don't think that they are much use for boosting your battery when you are on a campsite and using your battery to power your tv etc.

I've got one as well. It just about keeps a standing battery topped up if it's sunny but, with a maximum output of 1/8th of an amp, it's not much good for anything else.
