Well the panel came in today and appears reasonable at this stage. I set it up under patio as today was all over the place weather wise and still managed to pump out enough to go from medium to full charge on an 80AH hybrid battery. Looks like that battery is on it's way out as the battery pack meter as well as the mppt controller battery meter both dropped to medium charge afterwards.
The cables look fairly thin so am guessing 20-30 amp (10 B & S??) twin core so will have to go through the site that Cuppa provided on wiring lengths / size and later look at possibly upgrading the controller to a better unit but looks like it will do what we need at this stage, biggest indication will be actually putting it under load and see how it goes as it's mainly the fridge that we use during the day and depending on weather it is turned off before we go to bed to conserve power and use the 2 batteries in the troll for LED lighting.
