Forgot to add,, My other set up of the 6 solar panels, I donated to another RV,, One panel was destroyed by one big bird heading into Padre Island.. He didnt get high enough to clear the trailer and caught the edge of one panel and well,, they are not designed to be hit that hard, especially by a big bird in flight.

I originally ordered em from an Ebay seller who gets his products from CHINA,,( I know, how Un-American of me to find a deal). I ordered the roll out 36 volt 100 watt set up but it got put on back order for 4 weeks.. The seller said he has a few 200 watt Mono crystaline (glass panels) he can swing a good price on to *test out. They are manufactured by Sun Solar. He said I can try these for 6 months for a greatly reduced price if I would fill out a questionaire survey for him during the time I used them.. and if I didnt like them, he would give me a full refund. So far, they are holding a nice steady 13.8 to 14 V, and steady 199.7 to 201 Watt. (I have a seperate volt meter and watt meter to closely watch them so I dont cook my battery bank.

I'm still going to install the 36 V, 100 watt roll out flat panels.. (no wind drag and they say you can step on them).
