William,

Wouldn't you want to specify what kind of battery chemistry?

How often are you able to inspect this battery/generator system?

If you choose SLA battery, will you have consistently good insolation for year 
round charging? If not, you are saving a bit of initial cost and potentially 
(questionable IMHO) better reliability at the potential expense of longer 
battery life. 

Is that a good trade-off?

  Friends:

  Ii it possible, with the correct module, to trickle charge a generator 
cranking battery without the use of a charge controller?  What modules fit this 
criteria?

  Thanks in advance.
