Matt,
It's going to augment my alternatorless-ness. Nothing now - but I have plans for it. Daox, Orange4boy, and I have been working on a solution for low voltage issues.
I have a trickle charger already, but this is fun, cool, and a step toward learning about solar. I don't want to spend $500 on an inverter system until I can get a simple battery system working well.
