Re: [A/S] solar panels



Jim,

I have two Seimens SR100 Panels mounted on the roof of my 32' A/S.  The
SR100 is out of production but there is a dealer in Arizona that has about
one hundred on hand.  I am buying two more to mount on the top rear of the
trailer.  I will have to buy a new Charge Control. You mentioned the Solar
Boost.  I have read the writings about the RV Power Products SP 50SBD and
have convinced myself that if it acts like the advertising says it is worth
the extra money.

You mentioned the Solar Boost charger.  Does it really work as described in
the literature.

I believe if the writings are correct the four panels will almost charge as
three panels full blow a good share of the day.  (Normal days) what is
normal anyway?

I am satisfied with what I have now. If / when I finally retire and have a
need for more electricity I don't want to be mixing panels.
