I have been kicking around the idea of installing 5-600 watts of solar panels. I know I will have to do some measuring and layout planning. A couple of questions: 1) If I go 600, what would be required to convert down to 12v if I put 6 100 watt panels and wire them 2s3p? 2)I am thinking in terms of keeping the batteries charged while traveling and mild weather boondocking. Is 5-600 watts adequate? And 3) Is anyone familiar with Renogy's 100 watt panel? Are they a decent quality panel?
