Thanks for the tip. If you come up with any more info please let me know.

Thanks for the tip!

Some of them, but usually the best advice comes from people who have been there and done it themselves.

Hello Everyone. Does anyone know where there is a good place to boondock in the Cortez, Colorado area?

Unfortunately, you can't use these for a permanent address for things like a driver's license.

Hello Everyone. I need to set up a permanent address in Arizona and need some advice. First of all, I am currently using a friend's address in Phoenix for everything from Social Security to my driver's license. However, that relationship is becoming more and more unstable and I want to make a...

Again, thanks for all your input.  All this has been quite a maze for sure, but in the final analysis I have come down to this.  My 100 watt solar system has worked for me so I am going to continue with it.  And with that said, I have come to the thinking that instead of looking for more power...

No.  Needless to say I am disappointed.  A 200-watt solar panel should cut the charging time in half over a 100-watt panel.  So with that said, I shipped the 200-wat panel back.   There definitely is no need in paying $500.00 for something that is giving me the same results as what I am using now.

I want to thank everyone for all the responses and information.  And to end this thread I would like to add one more thing about all this.   I now have my Renogy 200 watt Eclipse Suitcase Solar Panel Kit and have been testing it out.  It is charging my battery and appears to be working...

There seems to be some confusion about what I am talking about.  Even Renogy was confused at first until I clarified that the two portable suitcases were not connected to each other, but only hooked to the same battery.  Then they told me that this would work fine.  And that only makes sense. ...

Mine basically operates the same.  It runs up to around 14.5 just when the battery is about full and then it drops down to 13.6 and then stays there until the battery level drops.

Thanks Tom.  This kind of meter is what I still need to get so I will check this out.

And that is what I believe as well.  It is just logical.

That is the information I have also gotten.  Of course this relates to a series of panels wired together.   In my case, these would be separate panels, suitcase kits, operating independent of each other and connected to the battery separately.

Thanks for the info!
