I agree that the folding suitcase panels are the easiest to use. They usually have a controller built in and should be plug & play. Just make sure you get one (or more) that are compatible with the solar port on your trailer and that have the controller already on them. Many trailers come with a Zamp port installed and connected to the batteries, meaning you just plug in the panels and they start charging when the sun shines on them.
The Zamp panels are great, but they are not always budget friendly. So if your goal involves finding an option which fits a tight budget you might have to look at panels other than Zamp. Some of them will require different wiring than the Zamp port on your trailer. Not a big problem to overcome, but you need to confirm before plugging in so you can make the necessary wiring changes.
How easy is this to hook up? If your "solar ready" trailer has the necessary port to plug in your solar panel, then it's as easy as getting a compatible panel, unfolding it, and plugging it in. If by "solar ready" it's meant that you have the wiring installed but it's not connected to anything yet, then you'll have some additional work cut out for you. Your manual should provide the information.
As far as running devices off solar...
You don't actually run anything directly off the solar. The solar is there to charge your batteries. Everything you'll be running is actually running from your
12v battery system. If you need 120v power for household devices you'll have to use your inverter to make the 120v power from your
12v batteries.
You'll get much better efficiency if you use
12v devices as much as possible. Your roof vents run on 12v and will provide good air flow without having to run the inverter. You can also get 12v fans which plug into the 12v outlets in the trailer.
There are also 12v TV sets which you can use without the inverter. If you have a 120v TV, the inverter will be necessary. When you look at the current rating on a 120v appliance like a television, keep in mind that it will draw 10x as much off your batteries as the 120v rating. For example, if your television draws 1 amp at 120v, it will draw 10 amps from the batteries via the inverter.
Like Bob was saying, this is all about doing the math. Figure out how much battery capacity you have, how much power the solar panel(s) actually produce and how much they'll recharge the batteries, and how much the devices you want to run will draw from them. Then you'll know how long you can/can't run things.
