-FIXME
 In **'dweller solar configurations** the order of sizing calculations may be different due to space limitations.  Few of us will be able to fit all the solar panels we need to run every [[electrical:12v:loads|load]] on our wishlist. In this case we size our systems for the maximum amount of panels we can fit in the space allowed.  This might be what fits in open space on our roof, or how much portable panel we are willing to deploy.
   - max solar wattage you can install (or afford)
+  - whether your have access to other forms of charging: [[electrical:shore_power|shore power]], [[electrical:12v:alternator|alternator]]
   - max battery capacity you can charge fully/consistently (or afford, or install)
   - these factors will tell you what kind of loads you can run.
