You technically could add a second Go Power Portable Solar Panel with Digital Solar Controller - 200 Watt Solar Panel # 34282610 to power your travel trailer's lithium batteries, however, this would require some custom wiring to the controller as Go Power doesn't sell a kit to make this process quick and easy.

The better option would be to upgrade to a system that is more capable of charging your 3-100ah lithium battery bank, and for that I recommend the Go Power Overlander Solar Charging System with Digital Solar Controller - 570 Watt Solar Panels # GP99MR. This is rated at 570 watts which is nearly triple the rating of your current solar panel.
