How much power does solar panels actually generate?

Hi,

Yes. The smaller the cycle the more of them you get. A 5% discharge might do 10,000 cycles. A 100% discharge would do perhaps 20 to 30. 50% does about 500 on a good quality deep cycle design.

I think this chart is for AGM (and it is very optimistic):



Here is the page I linked the image from:

It is worth reading.
