Yes, getting one AH is like eating one peanut. Who can resist having a second?
Actual calculations based on last year with the 130 showed it got 56AH/day flat, 70AH fixed tilted, and 90AH in contraption moved three times a day.
So a second 130w added would get us 112AH flat, more than the single's 90 in the contraption.
The two 100s alone should get 200/130 x 56 = 86 flat, so with all three flat I should get 86 plus 56 = 142. That should be plenty, since in summer we use about 70/day. Lots of margin for part cloudy days.
The swivel contraption should get 200/130 x 90 = 138AH by itself, so adding in the 130 in its contraption would yield a max of 138 plus 90 = 228AH/day.
I can't think what to do with all those AH if I set up to get them all. We already use the MW and all that with the big inverter as part of the 70 we use now. I'm thinking 12v hot tub maybe :)
