... I am putting together my first small DC lighting system for my backyard<br>
shed. It will consist of:<br>
<br>
[1] 180W Schuco module<br>
[1] Morningstar SunLight charge controller<br>
[1] Deka AGM 12V, 32Ah battery<br>
[1] Trimetric meter<br>
<br>
And I need to find the right 12V LED flood light(s). Any suggestions? The<br>
purpose will be for winter evening b.b.q's and late-night lawn bowling<br>
matches in summer.<br>
<br>
Any other advice for how to execute this installation? Does the SunLight<br>
come with fusing or do I need to protect it externally?<br>
<br>
<br>
Happy holidays to all!<br>
<br>
<br>
