I've used the small panel from JC Whitney to maintain charge on cars in storage. For a carputer system I will need a much bigger panel to hold a computer in standby or hybernation for an indefinite time. If the vehicle battery can maintain the computer system over night without going into low voltage shutdown I should be able to pull it off here in Arizona. We have about 360 days a year of sunshine. My panel will need to be able to generate 2x the watts that the carputer will need to be in a ready sleep mode.
