Flat solar panel performance today in Quartzsite

300 watts flat on the roof. Clean, no shadows on panels, 65F. 12v system. Today in Quartzsite, what's a reasonable expectation of amps in BULK charging, at 1 PM? I was only seeing 11.x amps at jus...

Watching a couple of playoff games on Sunday, I got 42 AH on 130W tilted. Compared to 505W flat & 105AH; I get 55% more power tilted.

42AH is a major power use for me. Wouldn't know where to put 105AH.

505 watts flat mounted. 365 watts on the sunny side of the coach. 140 watts on the shady side. Rogue 30 amp MTTP charge controller. 4-6volt batteries.
18.5 amps max at 1PM. 105 amp hrs. total for the day.
