Or multiple batteries? Is 2x 150w overkill?

You'll need to calculate the total watts needed by all the devices you're going to be using and how long you intend using them for as this will indicate the batter storage you'll require.
Also, will you need an inverter to convert DC to AC or will the devices be 12v?

Maybe a dedicated solar lighting kit might suffice...

Peeps, I wanna fit a couple of solar panels to mi log shed to power at least a pair of PIR LED and an internal light. I have no clue about elastic trickery, wiggly amps or electric string so what do I need. Will a pair of 150w panels and a 20 amp controller work? I wanna get the brackets fitted before the roof covering goes on so I need to choose a package.

I fink you’ll need to point your shed due NNE or is it WSW if you gonna use solar panels!! Otherwise they get all huffy and don’t make any electronic juice

Definitely no good!! When mars is in ur-anus the light from the sun will fall somewhere between NWE and EWS. Then all the electrical squirrels will escape

My Old Landy · Jan 11, 2021

@doriz the sun is quite far away so if you put them on the roof, they will be a bit nearer...... some people actually put them on the ground on turntables to track the sun
