Even during a short day solar can provide a noticeable amount of amps per 100 watt panel...10-15 if positioned well with a clear sky. No fuel to replace, no noise. Don’t blow it off.
Lwiddis - Good points. But, going months with either complete darkness or only a few hours per day of sunshine at most and the likelihood that many of those days might be cloudy might make it difficult to rely on solar power for what is effectively life support (i.e. heat to make the inside of the RV liveable and to maintain the vehicle--keep parts from breaking, bursting, etc.).

That said, since I don't know how best to power the RV in this scenario, I could be wrong and am open to all suggestions.
