More Solar for "Us"
Ok, I went off.the deep end? Bought 3 used 37watt uni-solar panels and a blue sky 2000e controller for the hefty price of $400, They were being listed as 75w panels, they are not The tested open...

What makes you think that cooling can't occur on BOTH of the Uni-Solar surfaces?
One being the upper surface that's exposed to the air and the other being the surface that's adhesively attached to the roof - assuming that the adhesive is, or can be, of a heat conductive type? I'll bet that the lower surface attached to the roof is a better heat conductor than the Uni-Solar's upper surface that is exposed to only air.
(The above "bet" on my part is assuming your roof is white! A dark roof will HEAT the backside of the Uni-Solar panel.)
Forgive me, but how can black material "HEAT" something if it's not exposed to light of any kind?
And yes... if you're not concerned about heating up the cabin, then the roof should conduct away some heat. I was always operating under the assumption that you don't want to heat up the interior of the coach so much that you need to run your A/C unit through your inverter or even your generator which, would of course kind of nullify the benefit of having solar.
But for someone who only uses their rig in winter...
