18 watts for $100 is expensive per watt and will not do more than maintain one or two fully charged and disconnected batteries.
Honestly I think you are far better off with 100 watts minimum to make the effort.
80 watts $104
Better controller $42
OK that is a few $$ more but it will actually do something while camping.
DM Solar 85 cents per watt (316w) Need larger controller too.
Get something that works or just pass for now. Maybe a second battery for now.
