Depends on a) the ratings of your existing panels b) the way you want to wire them c) the make/model of your controller.
I didn't include this information because I thought it was irrelevant. If I recall correctly, I have 2 Kyocera 130W panels and an Outback MX60 charge controller.
Honestly, with all the things on a typical RV roof I can't imagine that many larger residential panels can be used on an RV.
I was just hoping someone might have made a recent purchase. I'm not totally against other brands, but what I have works. I purchased them prior to a trip to Quartsite where I watched Solar Bill jump on an older Kyocera panel several times to demonstrate how durable they are. I consider the durability as plus as they could be subject to hail or other debris.
I'm not in any real hurry to make this purchase. So it may takes months, but I'll update this thread when I do make a purchase.
