Default RE: Field Battery, Is This Right?

The only thing I'd suggest is not to use the alligator clips to connect the panel to the battery.

They will inadvertantly fall off, or at best, provide a bad connection over time.

Use bolts and nuts, with crimp-on lugs (soldered if possible) to secure the panel wires to the battery.

And "YES", you can charge through the starter jacks
