This makes no sense. A 200 watt solar panel is rated to produce 200 watts at the maximum; i.e., full sun and directly overhead. Efficiency also drops off at higher temperatures such as on the roof of an RV. Of course roof mounted panels are going to be at a severe angle away from the sun for most of the day, depending on the length of daylight and latitude.
Yesterday was 100% off the new 200 watt panel that is not installed on the roof yet,the others are different days and conditions with 2 100 watt panels..
