Prices north and south of our boarder have Vat to consider but 400%, that's nuts. As for Mexican customs, I tried to have a forgotten suitcase airmailed to our hotel. It never made it because it was cheaper to go to Walmart than drive up from PV and pay the customs. They sent it back just in time for me to get when we got home 21 days later.
So a couple of 136w strips from solarblvd would be $198 if you can get them, but that means you will need a 20a MPPT controller. The Rogue 20a for $250 is the obvious choice.
Even though the rated Voc of the strips is over the Eco-worthy's revised limit of 45v, the expected Voc is 42.2v. Should the Voc stay down the Eco-w could handle two of them. The second consideration is you have a AGM and the Eco-w may not handle the voltages needed according to the threads I've read.
BTW the strips are 18 ft long and weigh 17 lbs.
