Here is what my Turnigy power analyzer says since I reset it this morning
Right now 8.83 amps 14.31v 125.4 watts
Peak so far today
11.14 amps peak , 154.1 watts peak output to batteries
14.2 amphrs returned, 192 watt hrs returned 1:50 pm
Not too shabby, panels are flat mount & total 211w,
sun is about 10 O'clock azimuth
Partly cloudy skys breezing by, and temp 76°f
The Turnigy PA watt meter is designed for electric RC aircraft and displays real time usage and peak readings and total power used or charged depending on polarity of the circuit (it reads one way only and is cumulative, but NOT add & subtract)
It also tracts AmpHrs
Right now 11.57 amphrs has been returned to the system so far today, if I want individual daily totals I have to reset the meter each night or early morning ( which is what I did in the previous RV when I had them on the dash, all batteries were up front in that coach )
New peak reading 12.07 amps 164.9 watts
