I am improving an old cabin by adding a new bathroom. The bathroom will be next to the old cabin and attached by a breezeway. Upon submitting plans to the county for a permit (don't ask why) they have suggested that I need electrical power (something the cabin has never had). One option is a solar panel setup. I have a system on my truck camper that is run by a 12 volt battery charged by the truck engine. I believe that a similar system could be used to power lights and a couple fans for the bathroom, but have the recharging done by a solar panel. I'm looking for advise from somebody who has built a system like this. It will need to be legit to get it through the approval by Alameda County building dept. Any advice, education etc would be helpful, including where I should go to purchase this type of system. There is no public utility power available.
