Might do the trick - bilge pump connected to marine battery,

what it needs to be, but it needs to stop charging when the battery

I was thinking of something like a 130Ah marine battery, (or certainly
60 -70Ah).

Any ideas - is trickle charging OK if the battery isnt being used at all
for most of the time?
