PV Gap

Would this work in place of a gas powered generator?

The solar panel will work nicely to keep the batteries topped, but will probably not be able to run much directly. Look-up solar panels, and calculate the wattage they can produce compared the the square feet of surface, & I think you'll see that a solar panel to keep-up with a blender would be huge. You'll probably end-up with a generator and the solar panels. The more batteries you have, the longer they will last. For that job, depending on how much $$$ you want to spend, the dry-cell car batteries would be best, because they don't have any liquid acid in them to drip if you tip them over. The generators are getting better, too. Look at a generator built for an RV, at an RV dealer. In fact, the RV dealer could have info on solar panels, also.

Physics - please help me?

When a battery is SUPPLYING current negatively charged electrons will migrate to the positive terminal.


When a battery RECEIVING current (that is being charged by some other device) the electrons will migrate toward the negative terminal.

It's like the direction of water in the spout of a water pitcher as your filling or emptying it.
Does that make you happier?
