Where to mount solar panels on roof?
Where would you guys mount 2 100 watt solar panels on this trailer? Plan on mounting another 2 100 watters in the future.

Sorry to be a broken record, but these 4-lb panels. . .

. . .set on the ground and tilted towards the sun will harvest FAR more energy than the equivilent 20-lb panel nailed to the roof of your RV, even if you don't park in the shade. Get 50 ft of 12awg duplex cable and some Y connectors, and you're good to go.
Yes, they are twice the cost, but now you don't have to park in the sun and boil your brains out just to prove a point about solar. I have 2 of these now and I'm going to get at least 2 more, and if I get around to selling my Kyocera 315 boat anchors, I'll get an additional 4 more, for 800 watts total.
