Solar Panel Recommendation for Charging Battery On Trailer
Question:
I have a 2010 Flying Cloud Airstream. I just moved it from storage at my house plugged in to 120VAC to a RV storage no electrical to maintain battery charge. Is there a solar system that I could plug into my 7-way plug to charge the batteries? Thanks -

Expert Reply:
You could use the Solar Power Kit for TorkLift PowerArmor Battery Boxes # TLA7713 to charge the battery you have on your trailer. This won't plug into a 7-way, but if you wired the output wire to a # 30717 you could make it a quick-disconnect style connection.
I attached an install video that shows how we installed one on a trailer.
