That is why I dropped my pursuit for solar. We seek shade all the time, and it does'nt take much shade to render solar useless.

There is an alternative which can help. I have a ground deploy setup on 40' of cord. If the RV is in the shade (which it usually is at some point) I can deploy solar into the sun (so far).

I have seen those ground deploys. The one that folds into quarters, the size of a large briefcase looked interesting. I just don't think it's for us, at least not yet. But it is surely more viable to me than screwed-on panels on top of a shaded roof.
