A portable 50 W panel increases the factory installed solar on the T@B to approximately 175 W. A weatherproof SAE plugin was attached to the aluminum tongue box for a quick connection to the panel. The plugin was wired to a second charge controller (see picture) and then to the battery. The panel is stored and transported in a custom built plywood box.
Approx. cost for panel, upgraded controller and connector, $180.
