Living here in the U.S. southwest, I couldn't put our panels on the roof
as we prefer to camp in the shade. YMMV due to personal comfort zone or
climate zone.

Of course, if we move to more northern latitudes, roof-mounting might be
just the ticket. In the meantime, some possible useful information:
