I have recently bought a 20 foot Cherokee Grey Wolf and it came with a 50 watt solar panel. I would like to feel comfortable that I could dry camp for 3-4 days and I don't think that 50 watts is enough to run my DC refrigerator, fan, and water pump usage for that amount of time. From my previous tent camping days, I have a 100 watt solar panel, and a 'solar generator' kit that includes a charge controller and a 1,000 watt inverter.
My question is, can I just attach my 100 watt solar panel's charge controller to the trailer batter to supplement the 50 watt panel? To my mind, there should not be an issue with this. However, I want to be certain that doing this would not overload the 50 watt panel's charge controller system.
Eventually, I do plan to upgrade the trailer's solar system overall, but that is not in this year's budget.
Thanks!
