Hi. I'm considering this panel as a suppliment to trickel the house batteries on my boat (2ea 27F 12V) when we are rafted up in the sun. Primary purpose being to lengthen the operational time (without running the engines) that I might operate my refrigerator on 12V before having to switch over to my inverter (has it's own battery, but only offers about 1500 total watts before dropping below operable voltage range.) I really have no space to mount or store a generator, so I was hoping 50 watts could dramatically assist the house batteries to run the refrigerator (we don't use the stereo much, and the microwave is on the other system. I would be strapping the un-folder PV on the top of my bimini top, securing it with elastic straps to the grommets at the corners. Any suggestions, comments? Thanks for any input you can provide!

your refrigerator should have power consumption information on its back panel. If it consumes 100 watts, expect this rig to lengthen your run time by 30 mins. To get wattage consumption multiply input voltage (12V) by input current (amps, see your back panel).
