Solar Set-up for Concorde Battery Minder

Post by david_wurfel »

I use the Battery Minder that is specifically used for the Concorde Battery. At home I just plug it in. In my vacation location the hangar has no power.
I am thinking about setting up a solar power solution for the Maintainer. Wondering if anyone has done that on that on the forum. Also do not know the maximum wattage draw for the maintainer. If anyone has gone down this path would appreciate your advice. Harbor Freight has a pretty cheap kit that may do the trick, but not sure. Thanks all. :bow

Battery minder sells the solar setup. I bought it. https://www.batteryminders.com/solar-aviation/

I have no idea if it works because I can’t get anyone to connect it to the plane yet. Yes, I know that ought to be simple but on a da40 NG it’s pretty complex. But I’m going to a shop next week and hope I can get it done there.
