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...
We have two 160w panels feeding two 6v 260a batteries. With just a fair amount of sun we have no problems recovering around 40 or 50a a day. Hit and miss sun and we might get a week before needing to use our 2200w westinghouse to recharge although we'd probably run it sooner. No sun and we can go 3 days before a charge is necessary. Just our example...a lot of variables to consider.
