Solar panels
Looking at adding portable solar panels. Have a 2019 26 ft trailer, any ideas on how many watts i would need? And reliable brands.

How much was that for you? I'm about to install 400 watts on my rig to get started.
1000
When you say get started that means you need to plan and research further so you don't box yourself in or buy components a second time.
I did pretty good with my original 520 watts of cynergy panels and four GC2. When I went to a resi fridge I added a second bogart controller and three 160 w cynergy. Both controllers work well with the bogart trimetric but if I knew that the system would be this large I would have used MPPT controller. 12 volt panels to work out good on my FW because they are on the edges and provide walking paths.
