you can double wattage in the existing USED roof space using 12v poly panels
for not too much cost, if you have some unused space, you could maybe triple your wattage
i know if i wanted to run the roof air from solar, i would need at least 1500w
i budget for the gas to be used in the summer months
my brothers place is almost 2500 miles away, and no lake, for that i have to camp at the nearby state park
today its 90+ here and there
but i am considering, increasing my solar, and hopefully save more 'fuel' $$
but right now since I need to spend $$ to run the genny to stay cool,
i let it charge up the batteries too
