I'd say you did well
My 505w got me 67.23 ah , yesterday and I don't have to add extra load as my fridge and pc etc..draw enough power
You have 50% more watts and got 68% more amp hrs
:S
And I've been jotting down watt-hours, which with the varying charging voltages makes it impossible to convert to amp-hours. And of course amp-hours is what you want to compare to your battery bank's capacity.
Anyway, do know that I got 870 W-hr which is surely over 50 ah on a sunny day boondocking in Everglades N.P. a couple of weeks ago. Really only about 4-5 hours of un-obstructed sunshine before the tall pines cut into it. We were using power all day so the Rogue could have been in MPPT mode all the time. 380W of fixed, slightly tilted panels.
