Well, let me see if I can post this again without a
stupid juno failure.
There are numerous books, a lot of general information
types, and some of the best info I have seen is in
the catalogs from some of the providers. They cover
load requirements, batteries, inverters(if needed)
mounting, etc.
One book I have is by Edward Noll W3FQJ, some years old
now but the principle is still there - used an Argo 505
or 509 in a low power station. The book is:
Wind/Solar Energy, Edward M Noll, Howard W Sams, ISBN
0-672-21305-2.
Some solar dealers and their websites(most have paper
type catalogs available) are:
www.sunelco.com
www.solarenergylimited.com/technologyproducts.htm
www.homesteadsolar.com
www.backwoodssolar.com
www.kansaswindpower.net (also solar, batteries, etc)
www.ctsolar.com
www.seslogic.com (sunlight energy)
www.realgoods.com
www.realgoods.com/times/pastissues.cfm (newsletters)

Maybe that will be enough to get you started.
