Thanks for all the comments . . and oops! I confused watts with volts again - disregard 2 small vs 1 large and amps Q
I appreciate that schlepping panels around will be a bit of a pain - but I really have no choice. I don't want to park in the sun when it's hot and I don't think I'll need that much power. If I have to run the gen from time to time to boost - I'm OK with that - just so long as it become occassional or even rare as opposed to daily or even multiple times daily! Yes, will be making some type of stand - still looking into options - probably pvc - for ease of use and weight.
thanks for your time
