    I am a dealer for Wattsun and have used them for decades. There are others I have heard good things about from installers.

    40 panels seems like a lot for 1 tracker

    Anything can be done with enough green stuff as the main ingredient? For offgrid I would ant the solar diversified to 2 arrays.

    Isn't it cheaper to just add panels to a fixed mounting system?  Granted you would have to buy electronics to meet the peaks.
