I'd like to use a solar panel to power the LED rope lights for my pontoon boat. There will be approximately 100ft of rope lights going around it. Other than the lights, what size panel do I need and how do I hook it all up?

Thanks, bundy......I'll be using 12 volt lights........I found a supplier whose 12 volt LED's run less that 1 watt/ft......some other boater friends use them with great success..........I'm sure that will help you in assisting me........

Thanks for the info Magoo
If you have 100 feet of rope light that draws 1 watt per foot then you have a 100 watt power draw. At 12 volts that

Thank you for your time and input........I will follow up and continue my research. Our boat does have a generator....it's a Honda 3000i..........
I have found some individual solar lights online ( not rope lights ) that can be mounted to the vertical side of a post or wall.........strategically placed, I think they will do the trick.........
Thanks for all your input.......

You can still dim the LEDs I have them in my car and have for the last 6 years and the dimmer works fine, it wont go 100 black but they will get dimmer.

I love how LEDs last so long, especially in cars.
