I found a solar kit at my local BJ's and am considering adding it to my chicken/duck/garden area as a source of power. My area is about 300' from the closest electrical panel that i could tie into. I have gotten estimates to run electricity and install a 4 outlet gfi. The least expensive was around $2k, way out of budget.
I would like to be able to power a motion security light, a light in the coop and future shed (for occasional use not on all night), electric fence, and a small pond pump.
I have zero experience with solar power and have no idea if this unit would provide what I need. The unit is $149.99, and includes everything except the 12v battery.
Any and all input would be greatly appreciated!
