Trying to max out solar on e350 eb
I’m trying to get as many watts on top of my e350 eb passenger van as possible, but also trying to keep it as stealth looking as I can.
Due to the stealth factor I’m planning on hiding the panels in a basket-style roof rack. Yes, like the one Aluminess makes.
Unfortunately, after reading the specs for Aluminess’ eseries eb roof rack, I see their width is 57” towards the rear of the rack (61” towards the front).
ALL the panels I have found, and combinations of smaller panels, come to approximately 58”, which is larger than the 57” that Aluminess says.
So, I could get smaller panels but I would be giving up lots of space on the roof/rack that I want to maximize.
I’ve searched for other racks, but none of them come close to the size of the Aluminess rack.
I’m not asking the question of “how many watts do I need” so I don’t need to be convinced I need less wattage.
Wondering if anyone has been through this before and could point me in a direction.
