School me on these solar packages
I'm trying to do some more research on investing in portable solar panels. From prior discussion I've come to basic feeling that maybe 200 watts sitting in the sun for the day would suffice to offset...

To the OP, if you are going to just keep the pair of Group 27's, and you are looking for bare bones, no engineering, simplicity plug and play portable panels, this is a good start. You will want to upgrade the cheesy wiring they give in the kit with some good 10 gauge wire from the controller to your batteries, or pull the controller off the panels and mount permanently near the batteries instead with a short 3 to 6 foot run of 10 gauge wire, and provide some 14 gauge extension cord (orange construction type like available at Home Depot) for the wire run between the portable panel and the charge controller.
