 ====== Slim battery reserves ======
-FIXME:  edit/organize
 Note:  this section is likely not appropriate for newbies;  if the ideas are implemented incorrectly it could result in [[electrical:batterycide|battery murder]] and disappointment.
 Running slimmer-than-normal battery reserves saves space, money, and weight.  Here we discuss some ideas about reducing calculated reserves.  For purposes of illustration, we will assume the vandweller's daily power requirements are 100Ah, and that they are using lead chemistry batteries.
+Loads that can be powered [[electrical:solar:offthepanel|from solar]] will not come from the battery.  If 2/3rd of the laods are serviced this way it leaves only 33Ah that is needed overnight.
