Agreed, Ryland.
I kicked around the idea of these panels over the top of my trailer design, then nixed that because of the unfavorable angle of incidence. Then I thought about a deployable monocrystalline panel, complete with tracking.
Then I looked at the EU1000i generator I paid $400 for, and realized I was beating a dead horse. The money is just not there for what you get. I could get gas for that honda for decades and still not spend as much as a 200 watt panel and hardware.
The handy place for a solar panel and a car/truck is to maintain a battery on a rig that does not get used much and is parked at a remote location without power.
