I want to get a solar setup to keep my batteries topped up - mostly to make sure the bilge pump works. Anyone used these kits? Watt Mobile Flexible Standard Solar Kit - Marine Outfitters - Ontario Canada
I was thinking of the 50w panel. Is this something suitable for a two battery setup? Would the charge controller automatically keep both batteries topped up, or would I need to add in a charge combiner such as the Blue Seas ACR unit?

I've also been looking at solar panel set up for our boat. Been checking these two sites Solar Panel Kits | 12v Solar Panels for Sale | 100w Solar Panel Kits out of California and Make A Solar Boat.com. out of Ontario.

Good luck on your choice
