Edd, the problem with solar in central Indiana is during the winter there isn't enough sun light on a good day to keep my solar yard lights on all night. Not to mention, we have about the same number of sunny days as we have cloudy.
When I built my pole barn, I had translucent panels installed at the top. Glad I did. I still use overhead lighting. I'm a fan of dewalt tools, so for Christmas I got a 30 watt florescent work light powered by 18v battery. I don't use dewalt batteries, instead I like the aftermarket 3000 ma-hr Ni-mh off ebay. Not sure how long it would last on a battery, but it comes in handy for emergency lighting. Before I would invest in solar cells, I would just buy extra marine batteries, take them home with you and charge them there. If someone stole your genny what's to say they won't take your solar cells and battery? If I need power, I have 2 RV gennies on wheels. One I have rigged up to pull behind the Kaw mule and the other I pull behind a riding mower. I use electric chainsaws instead of gas ones. Also use gennies for backup power. Multipurpose.

If it would just start when I turn the key, then I would use it more often. In addition to a bad case of old age, most of the tractor's original electrical system was simply too unreliable to keep. The main focus of this page is to show how I upgr
