Opinions on 100W Solar System
I've done my reading and research and think I have a system figured out. Limited space on the roof of my 815 so plan on going with a single panel. Maximum space available is 52 x 25, but optimum...

Yep it's a bummer that we can not find narrower panels any more. Mine are 21 inches.
Well I did find these for pretty cheap! $149 each! 21 inches wide...and I think it is great..
And FREE shipping!
Get ya some cardboard, cut and paste!
Output Cables: 4.0 mm2 (0.006 in2), 800mm (31.5 in) Connectors: MC4 Connectors
Maximum Power: 100W Maximum System Voltage: 600V DC (UL)
Optimum Operating Voltage (Vmp): 18.9V Open-Circuit Voltage (Voc): 22.5V
Optimum Operating Current (Imp): 5.29A Short-Circuit Current (Isc): 5.75A
Weight: 16.5lbs Dimensions: 47 X 21.3 X 1.4 In
Their 100watt starter kit with a PWM controller and roof mount stuff... $200... Need to purchase another panel $150.... So $350 and about $30 in wire/hardware and you have 200 watts..

If you went with the Rogue controller
$300 for the panels and $225 for the controller = $525 + 30 wire n stuff= 565.
