Use of Portable Solar

I have a 2018 Tommy Bahama AS 19ft with 270w of solar on the roof. I have AGM batteries 100ah type. I would like to purchase the Air Gear portable 200w solar kit for AS. My question is will the portable panels work with the roof top ones on? I will connect the portable panels to the front port on the AS. The roof top panels are Zamp. The AS came with one 80W panel from the factory and I added 2 90W Zamp panels.

Go for it, some will say it won't work, have any said it didn't?

Disclaimer...we charge 2-180w Zamp portales thru the 7-pin, basically the same as the 'front port'.

Portable panels will work in conjunction with the rooftop solar. --d.
