Sorry I can't take the credit for this vary smart mans article. I can only follow instructions somewhat but I've read this several times and have garnered allot from it.
 I found this article after I purchased two Evergreen 210 watt panels and the Morningstar Trystar 45 control.
 We just got back from 10 days in a national forest in which we had two days of rain and several days we used the heater all night without any need of a generator.
 This system charges in overcast and even rain!
 I know it's a little overkill but I don't go camping with my horses in the middle of nowhere to sit and listen to a generator drone on for hours.
 This has been my first trial as I just got it installed but it seems to be doing everything I want it to do and allot more.
 I want to thank everyone at AltE for there advice and help with this project. Now all I have to do is convert everyone I go riding with.
 PS- The Trystar 45 control doesn't make any noise with these panels.
 THANKS
 Bob Baker

I just finished a instal on our horse trailer with liveing quarters. I went a little bigger than your thinking but we camp for weeks at a time and I didn't want to worry about power and I didn't want to listen to a generator. I'll try to post this link to a articule that I think you will find a great help.

 I'm getting 2 Evergreen 205W Panels. I can always mount the charger on the front on the trailer and make a waterproof box to cover it.
 The charger is the 45.

#4 -  Renewable Energy > RE General Discussion > Morning Star Tristar-45 charger
I order a Morning Star Tristar charger for my RV solar system. I'm in the process of planing the layout and was wondering if this charger makes any noise while charging. I can mount it in a cupboard in the camper if it doesn't make any noise but the last thing I want to go to sleep hearing is a constant buzzing or whining.
 Any advise will be greatly appreciated.
 Bob
