Large Solar Panels
I have been looking at maybe using 2 255 watt panels they are big 65"x 38", this would give me more wattage than using 4 100 watt. I know that I need more battery but you have to start somewhere. Any...

The area is in the middle of the FW and the 8' is side to side and the 6' is between 2 vents Hope that helps.
It does.
The only way to place them would be lengthwise, one per each side.
#1: One on the left and one on the right. Then you'll have about 5" from the gutter on each side and 5" in the middle between the panels. You can use same square tubing as on SMK photos, lengthwise, it provides a nice support against flex.
#2 Or you can bolt panels together and leave no space in between (then you'll have to move them TAD to the side, and will have the upper side sticking up a little). In this scenario you can still use same square tubing.
Panels need a few degrees tilt to the side. You don't want them to sit flat in the middle, straddling the centerline, unless this whole 6ft area slopes to the front.
