Highest wattage small solar panel?

What is the biggest small footprint (renogy 100 watt size) solar panel available? My van needs an upgrade in the same space. I’m looking at HQST 200 bifacial but wondering if there’s anything that size in a 300watt.

Creative solutions to route solar cable in to Sienna?

So far it seems like up through one of the holes in the 3rd row tub (seats are removed). Any better ideas?

1/2” Baltic ply corner connections

What’s the best way to connect panel corners with 1/2” Baltic birch ply? Is that too thin for pocket screws? Extruded aluminum angle irons? Wood corner reinforcement (1x1, 2x2?), should I glue? Is it better to let it flex?

Very small van, I don’t care about seeing screw heads.

▲ 460 r/aldi

I bought this on impulse at my local US Aldi for $12. It is an iPhone only AirTag equivalent. It’s slightly larger than an AirTag so it doesn’t fit into standard accessories. But it works perfectly.
