We have a Schott poly 230w and a Candiansolar 220w. I'll use either portable and tracking to do the job. Someday both mounted flat is the plan.
The 230w will start seeing 8-10 amps thru the eco-worthy as soon as the sun comes up and 15 amps at high noon tracking. It saw 8+ amps flat at noon with the smog in Denver.
That should cover our 30-40 ah usage day to day. That really only includes the rig as we usually only use four 9 LED cobs from dusk to bed time and no entertainment usage on the bank. Even with just 2 grp 27's we should be good for 3 days with no sunshine. Longer considering the 230w sees 1.78a in total overcast skies. Not much but something to stave off the need for the Champ.
