briansue,
Any idea how often you have to pound in the rebar for a ground?
I was planning a massive upgrade to my solar but that is now on hold as I may only full time for about another 24 months. I have replaced the generator that grew wings in the fall of 2016. Between the solar, hybrid inverter/charger and the generator I have my power needs totally taken care of. I now have an hour meter on the generator and after 5 weeks it shows only 7.2 hours. As I have a remote start, I'll turn on the generator when I'm cooking a meal. I have three friends who allow me to park and plug at their homes.
I can survive from May 1 until October 15 on a single 15 amp shore power supply. If I had a residential fridge my propane use would drop to essentially zero. As it is now, I use perhaps one tank per year--mostly for running the fridge when I have no shore power. I am able to heat 100% electrically down to the mid -30 temperature, provided that I have enough shore power available. Three 15 amp circuits take care of all my needs.
I'll be doing Walmart parking for about the next month. Hopefully it will not be too hot.
