I am planing to install a small solar system to provide lighting for our farm store. The farm store is a 16 x 20 shed. I was planning to use two 12 volt batteries to power 12V lighting. I don't quite understand a few things about battery systems so stop me if I am going down the wrong path. Basically, I need to keep the batteries charged in order to use the lights and run an inverter for 100V stuff. Can I just get a small battery charging panel to keep the batteries charged?. I guess I don't understand why I would need multiple 100 watt panels as I have seen in some packaged systems just to charge the batteries. Are the large panels so I can run off the panels when I have sunlight?
I know it would be easier to just attach to the grid but that is not what I want to do.
Thanks
