You need to stop implying and start being very very specific. Its very hard for people to guess what you are trying to do.

Sorry, give me two or three weeks to sort everything out, right now my life is overly hectic, and I'm sort of juggling ten different things.
If you got any ideas about my project, or questions post, I may or may not get back to them immediately.

OK, my bad. Of course, you could put rechargeable batteries in them, though I would personally use Duracells.

And to answer the overcharge problem, programming my good friends, programming. Once the batteries read out full the solar power is routed to power the motor or supplement it, and if its moored than the system shuts down enough to prevent overcharge, but you still gotta power the fridge, and other constant streamed batteries.

How do you keep an electric wench from overcharging?

You take away her credit cards.
