At 18 degrees the fan ran continuously for about 18 hours then the battery died.

Subject:        Propex Usage Experience

Hi all,

I have a Propex Carver P4 on its way to me.  I am planning on adding a solar
panel to the roof to power the sucker.  So, in order to estimate the size and
power of the panel I will need, I would like to hear about other members
experiences with the Propex.  Basically what I would like to know is, at a
given temperature the Propex' fan was on %50 of the time. Or at 20 degrees the
fan ran continuosly.  Is there anyone out there with a solar panel that could
make a suggestion as to adequate size.  For me the heater fan will be the
greatest draw.  Thank you for any and all replies.
