Both have pros and cons for sure. I took a hit on weight and install complexity as i have a 3 tier stack or rigid panels but for me it was important to get 400+ah a day in charging during the summer. The 1500w at 22% efficiency lets me put up to 100amps @12v toward my lithiumNot really a fair comparison to judge new flexibles against used glass domestics for RV easy fit & lower weight advantages
