Homemade SOLAR POWER! “Hello, Sea Eagle, Here’s a picture taken in 2008 of the 15 watt solar panel at Lake O”Brain near Ripley, West Virginia. My brother Michael in the boat getting the system ready to run. We ran the electric trolling motor all day and had a great time fishing. After we got back to his place we tested the battery; it had 70% charge left. I like Sea Eagle’s new 45 watt solar panel. I am an electrician and i think Sea Eagle has a great set up with their solar system. Sure beats buying gas! Thanks, Raymond!”
