The panels are rated for 100W each.

I’m really having trouble understanding what you are actually asking for today!

The panels are rated for 100W each.

That would be 100W an hour, so in 10 hours they would produce one kilowatt or apx. $.16 of electricity a day. So if you have 4 panels that would be $.64 a day or $233 dollars a year. Which is apx. a 2% return on your investment, if you didn't have very many cloudy days or expenses.

So at today's energy prices it will take more than 40 years before you recoup the cost of the system.
