I am making a solar panel battery combo to power my malibu lights. I am using led bulbs so I only will be using 3.3 watts. I was going to use a 10w panel. I am looking for an inexpensive battery for such application. I don't really care if the lights dont burn all night because of a poor light day. I'm thinking a 5ah or 10 ah battery is big enough. Since there is a zillion types of small batteries out there I was wondering if I could get opinions on which would be a good one. It is my understanding I dont need a charge controller with a panel so small. I also read that gel cells shouldn't be overcharged at all so they might not be the best for the application. Low cost is the rule here. Thanks
