Solar Panel Power Generation Log

The weather for our cruise in the North Channel of Lake Huron this year was excellent. It was warmer and sunnier than last year. Our Kyocera 85 watt solar panel performed very well. The following are some statistics:

Days cruising:                               22 days
Max power generation:                        40 amp-hours
Min power generation:                         13 amp-hours
Average power produced per day: 35 amp-hours

Average power consumed per day:    51 amp-hours

Our primary use of power was for the refrigerator/freezer. We ran a power deficit each day of about 16 amp-hours at anchor but with our 360 amp-hour battery bank, this not a problem. Moving on every 4 days or so gave the 75 amp alternator plenty of time to bring the batteries back up to charge.

The cost of the system can be factored into your home's mortgage. This option is best used when purchasing a new house or renewing an existing mortgage at the end of its term. You can acquire a home equity loan if you already own (or are in the process of owning) your property. You can borrow up to 80% of the value of your property, minus the unpaid portion of your mortgage, using this option. You'll need to schedule a fresh house appraisal for this option.
