I'm feeling really unqualified to answer this now...
I "think" that with the addition of 50 foot round trip you would require ALL of the wires to be 8awg. (Justin?)
Alternatively, if you disconnected the roof panels when you add the suitcase, you would be 6.48 amps and good to 100' roundtrip.
What is the use case for the suitcase? To augment the rooftop panels or for use when rooftop not in use? (parked in shade for example).
For the latter, i think you'd be disconnecting the rooftop panels to be safe (trees do fall and shadows move...)
