I'm getting a new truck camper and plan on adding a 170 watt solar panel on the roof, which got me to thinking, why not add another 170 watt panel, or two more panels? Is there an advantage to having...
Summer and winter will place differing demands on the solar/batteries; 14 hours of sunlight in summer and 10 of cloud in winter; Light electric demand in summer and heavy usage in winter;
I have 200W and 2 Walmart batteries which work great in summer but I need generator boost in winter; I keep the solar plugged in during storage and keeps the batteries topped up till the next camping trip.
As others have said - you can never have enough solar panels.....
