Love portable panels.  90* here, I'm in the shade and the 200 watts of panels are in the sun.

Short 1:34 video, including time lapse sunset, Lake Corpus Christi State Park.
 
That video looks like what living should be. Including the girls' company, of course. :)
 
Even with a couple real cloudy days the solar is working great.  Only 10:55 a.m and batteries are almost full after powering the fan and refrigerator all night long.  Tip of the hat to Renogy.

Learned something on my iPhone camera last night.  If you take a slo-mo video and then take a screen shot of the frame you like, you'll get a more realistic picture of what your eyes actually see.  Here's the picture taken in normal photo setting... a nice picture, but not what prompted me to take it

The solar panels got shade covered with about 2 hours of sun left. Last night I didn't do anything, tonight I used the 20' extension cables for the first time. Results...panels went from 8/10ths of an amp input to 7.8 amps. Well worth using them to get the last of the sun.
 
Notice how the step stool on the right appears to have no rear legs?  That's because it doesn't.  Some dipstick forgot to put it away before leaving this morning and ran over it. They ain't cheap...darn rookie.  Yep, it was me lol

Girls and I decided to have a Saturday night pizza party.  We had a pepperoni pizza delivered to the van at Clem's Marina and fired up Mr Buddy, almost like sitting in front of a fireplace.  A great time was had by all.  Life is good. :)

Great photos and sunset timelapse. Nice to know pizza can be delivered curbside.
