I have not tried it boondocking but I do use power sometimes during the day to work, prep or fix things in my Driveway. I no longer plug it in during non use, though now it is winter I did turn the Store /use switch to off.
Matter of fact we just got 3 100-watt panels, just waiting on the cables to arrive. Bought them as part of a kit with the Kodiak portable solar generator but will also use them to charge the house batteries once we get a charge controller. Don’t plan to mount them on the roof just yet though.
