Yes, more than 20A... also noted that full charge is being maintained without having to plug into power... minimum 12.8V+
Spoke with the panel installer, and he noted that the 1st solar panel that was installed by the dealer included an inlet box which has a 3-tier plug-in (three 2-wire plug-ins), two of which each additional panels are plugged into. He also noted that he really didn't prefer this type, suggesting another brand (Go Power) that, while expensive, produced significantly higher voltage - if I understood that right - and included a more expensive and sophisticated control box.
He went on to say that while other systems would essentially shut down when the sun goes down, the system he was referring to would go on to continue charging the batteries, I believe, due to the higher voltage these panels produced.
I think I got that right, but appreciate corrections and observations.
