RE: Solar Removal (advice/ideas)

Thanks everyone!
I have decided to leave as is as I am suddenly getting a lot of interest, just because of the solar!
Really appreciate everyone's feedback!
Just a FYI, our little setup was using the following, and worked really well for us in the LTVA last season-
600 watts 3x200, HiTec Solar
Victron 100/50 mppt
Aims 2000w PureSine inverter
200ah BB Batteries

RE: Solar Removal (advice/ideas)

I agree with getting new panels. Why take the trouble to install old panels.
I understand they are paid for by why install used panels on a brand new rig?
I have actually thought about keeping the setup with the rig, but it was only used 1 winter season in Quartzsite, so I figured the setup is new enough to remove and put on the next (new to me) rig.
I also feel solar may be very niche when trying to sell a rig? I had a few seasoned RV'ers look at the rig and their eyes glossed over when they saw the setup, had no clue what it was, how it worked, then tried to reduce the price because they had no use for it.
Figured it may be just easier to offload it w/o the system. I could be wrong based the responses I see already from the group.
Appreciate the feedback!

Solar Removal (advice/ideas)

Hello, Everyone!
It's that time to make the transition to a new rig for a new adventure! This means I am removing my system to transfer to the new rig.
Soooo
Regarding the panels on the roof-
Keep the brackets mounted, or remove them and seal the individual holes with???
I am open to either method, just want to do what's best considering I already compromised the integrity of the roof by putting screws down in the first place ( bonded to roof with eternabond/screws/eternabond tape/dicor).
Thanks for any help/suggestions!
