So you’ve bought a leisure battery, stocked your fridge with the beverage of your choice and head out to your favourite spot in the wilderness. You get to day two, pull your drink out the fridge to find that it’s warm, and come to think of it, the lights didn’t switch on earlier either? Sounds like you have a flat leisure battery! I bet you wish you had a solar panel now…

Just like the panels you might have seen on houses, a solar panel generates electricity whenever there is daylight. The electricity generated can be used to power appliances, lights, or even keep that leisure battery of yours topped up.
