12 volt bulb and 12 volt battery Jack,way to go....
-
in my camper the same set up lasts me for a few days if wild camping in a remote place with no mains power, depends on what you are running and you should always be conservative with energy,save power as much as you can .
-
it s not going to be as efficient if the truth be told, but in a remote location it s a convenience
-
no if you look around you can get it for that,prices have come down,i expect they could go back up again soon. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/100W-Monocrystalline-12v-Solar-Panel-full-set-up-racing-pigeon-boat-caravan-/261145389699?pt=UK_Gadgets&hash=item3ccd7a6a83

probably need about 150 for panel bulbs and regulator.Batteries could be scrounged or new but they will cost a bit,better scrounging a couple.
-
it s worth doing in a remote location with no mains for lighting though...

i run other types of heaters but they used too much energy so switched to a tube just to take chill out of the shed.
-
i run laptop lights radio chargers and a tube heater
-
and a regulator
-
plenty of big batterries joined together in parallel and a decent sized panel,everything should be low energy appliances etc
-
truth is i ve moved this set up to my campervan,that shed was far too small lol,i could nt have any mates in as there was no room,and yes that pint pot was my faithful companion after the dog.
-
yes a 2k inverter
-
ah if your on an alotment still a 12 volt bulb and a decent 12v olt battery should be better just swap with another battery and charge up the other at home.

my panel watts

here s the bulbs http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/3-x-12-VOLT-11-WATT-FLUORESCENT-CFL-BULB-B22-BC-BAYONET-/261167369701?pt=UK_Light_Bulbs&hash=item3ccec9cde5

i ve had that one it's not worth bothering with. Just get one of the 12volt energy bulbs like a fluorescent they are very bright and get the biggest size solar panel you can afford with a decent 12 volt battery for a bit extra you ll have a much better set up and can run other stuff too. this is my shed powered by solar
