Hi Angie, of course it all comes down to cost. Ideally he would have a deep cycle battery to store the energy and an 80 watt panel but it will probably be too expensive. He could use a car battery and that would work but it will not store the energy the same but will be suitable for running lights, a stereo etc. Take a look at some of the panels on this article then browse around for a cheap 40 watt or so. The kit with an inverter and a panel etc is a very good price and would be just about ideal. He will need an inverter unless you can simply connect everything up via dc which is possible but an inverter makes life easier. I would go for the kit, for $300 if I had the money.

Hi – my 14 year old son is wanting to supply his treehouse/clubhouse with solar power so that he can have lights, hook up a radio, etc. enough where he could use it to sleep in – hang out in – that kind of boy stuff. Since he is wanting to pay for it i want to make sure he doesnt get ripped off – what would you suggest that would serve this purpose? And what suggestions could you give us – well him.

THanks

My wife and I , have been doing alot of research in the solar panel and wind turbine niches lately. and I have to agree with you that building a solar panel or two would be a really great project to do with the kids. I think it would be a reall good way to open therir eyes to the environmental issues we are facing these days . all in all it was an excellent post thanks

Thanks Jan,

You are right, people often overestimate what can be run with a panel or two.

In our experience, folk come to Spain and think they can run everything they need from one stupid panel. They soon find out! An informative article for those starting out.
