It comes with its own charge controller, and will keep your truck batteries fresh.

but for recharging batteries that crank slowly from use while truck engine was not running,......you'll need a set of these bad boys

These will bring my batteries from 10.5 volts to 12.8 in about 45 minutes.
There are 390 watts of power being generated, and they run through a hi voltage charge controller, the spark these throw is clean and blue, and they actually have too muck electrical flow for a 50amp fuse, the fuse get too hot to touch.[/img]
I'd like to know how much that 3 panel setup cost you too and where you got it ???

A place called RV solar, do a search and ask for Doug, he was very good during the whole project.
