So I am building out an 18' box truck into an rv. The roof is 18' x 8', I want to have as much solar as possible up there, with room for a max air fan. I am going to build a battery from 304ah grade a eve cells, 16 in series for around 15kw. I am thinking of doing (2) sets and wiring those in parallel for around 30kw at 48V, but I haven't decided if I want to spend all that money yet or not. The inverter I think I will be going with is the MPP Solar LV6548 Hybrid.
I have looked at a few panels, a 70V panel so I could wire all in parallel, and the rest would be around 32-36V panels and need to be 2s2p. I am trying to configure the best placement off the sizes, while getting the most power, but its proving kinda difficult as its obviously not going to be a perfect fit.
I was also going to order from San Tan solar, but you need to order a minimum of 10 and no way I'd be able to use that many, I'm in Maryland so if anyone knows a place within reasonable distance I could pick them up so they don't get damaged in shipping.
My question is basically if you know a place in a reasonable range that I could pick the panels up from, and what size panels I should be going with. I'm really struggling figuring that out and want to get the panels up ASAP before summer really gets here and its blazing hot everyday.
Thanks everyone!
