As noted it came with the vehicle - I do, however, have the spec sheets but no fax/scanner machine at my disposal though.

Here is a brief description: Panel mounted to the roof - I order a US32 Uni-Solar panel to replace an old Sovonics panel that I could not find a replacement for. The US32 is very close in dimensions to the Sovonic. I ordered the rigid panel as it was $100 less expense ($200 price) then the "soft" panel - which is an option if you do not want to permanently mount the panel. You can roll it up and bring it out only when you need it.

The regulator is a Sun Selector M8 - which allows both batteries to be charged.

The rest is wiring...

As you can probably tell Technical aspects are not my strong point!

Hope this helps

Mark,

I personally would love to know more about your dual battery and solar charger system if you have any details/pix and would be willing to share them.
