Hi all,
I read the thread where someone asked for a list of what they needed to buy for their solar panel system and did do a search, but I can't find what I'm looking for.
I just want a basic entry level system, 200W and 30amp pwm
So I have these in my cart on Amazon:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00G5Q7CXG/ref=ox_sc_act_title_3?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A2TN19FHI2Z5KL

I plan to install them at RTR, by myself if I have to but hopefully with help.
In any case I'm also hoping that someone here can let me know if there is anything else I need to purchase to get a system working.
I already have a 190AH 12V battery in my trailer so these will be to charge that battery. I do have a generator though if I need it. I'd just prefer not to use it. My trailer is only 10 ft long so I think 20 feet of cable is more than enough, right? Eventually I plan to get tilting mounts and mppt controller, but this will do the job initially I think.
All of the items listed above are prime eligible so I should be able to get it all next Tues or Wed. *IF* nothing gets broken en route. I initially was going to go the renogy route, but I liked the pwm from windy nation and I thought it might be better to get the panels and controller from the same company. And I have friends here that have gotten the windy nation panels and they really like them so.... any thoughts on that?
Thanks for any advice.
