I was wondering if anyone has any experience with, or recommendations for a permanently installed solar charger for their rigs?

I was actually just looking at this kit on Amazon, seems like a decent setup.
I have a HFT solar charger now but it's not regulated. It's OK for just a couple days, but I wouldn't leave it in a parked vehicle for longer than that for fear of overcharging the battery.
