Solar - Permanent mount or portable?
As I work through the process of upgrading batteries, either a 4-jar bank of Lithium 100Ah 12V, one 300Ah + a 100 Ah, or two 200 Ah, I'm also researching the addition of more solar panels to the roof ...

Jayco, the more I think about this, the more I agree with your perspective... I suppose the reality of it is this... IF you're going to have solar, roof mount seems a good way to approach it, for at least SOME of the time, they'll be exposed to sunlight... for example, as ktmrfs suggests in the previous post.
I could opt to adding one more panel to the roof, but I think I'd also opt to have an additional portable - two I can deal with. But I might switch out my 120W for a 200W I found, and have another 400W portable, or another Zamp panel at 180W, which could add up to 30+ amps. That, plus the roughly 31 on the roof should be more than sufficient for my anticipated needs...
