I've never heard of lowlite solar panels. But I believe that you get more watts for you buck if you buy the largest panel you can. You can try solar panels or solar energy, to get what you want in your area Good luck.

Shari, I replaced my quad battery in Santa Rosalia. I just took it in, the old one, and they measured it and made sure the terminals were in the right place. Less than a week later I had it and ..... it was just right.

Much thanks all, I picked up the solar panels. They are a new breed of tech sortof lowlite but they also produce a higher voltage, eg a 20 watt standard or low lite produces around 16.7 volts these things are 18 watts and prodice 22.3 volts in overcast conditions, I'll wait for ongoing results but they brought the batteries up PDQ. Again, thanks for the help.
