325 watts 120 cell solar panel is low power, and bulky size. It's an old module and not achieve the most usage requirements. Because of the electricity loss in wire and sunshine angle on the roof is not ideal. The real wattage only 40-60% of the panel.
you can watch this video and there are lot's on youtube.

its a split cell design as well as 24V also which is newer than most, as for big and bulky what do you mean its the same size as every other large wattage pannel out there and the efficiency rating on it was right there with the best. ghe wire I used it rated for 4 time the amprage that will be going throught it so realy shouldnt be much loss that way. I did check on solar.reviews and in 2020 (this year) they gave this panel an superior raiting, so not exactly getting what your talking about. every panel will have losses due to sun angle and undersized wires and so on, so your point isnt realy making much sence.
as for the video, I saw it, didnt learn anything from it aside that some trailers have factory roof racks which makes things way easier
