100 watts is for storage. 200 watts would be the minimum I recommend for the effort to provide 12v power while in use.
I was just coming to the same conclusion... I'll be adding it myself (I'm pretty handy). I just reached the conclusion that if I'm spending the time to do it, I might as well make it 200 while I'm at it. Adding the 2nd panel is probably one of the easiest steps in the entire process and only an extra ~$100.
The controller I bought can handle 300watts, so if I ever decide I need a bit more I could always just add a 3rd panel.
Would still love to hear more people's experience with their Average AH consumption/day and what sort of items they are using/etc.
