You don't have to have top of the line stuff to learn with for a few camp outings a year. Full time RV living requires higher end stuff because its used every day.
How do/will you camp what is your rig? If you are going to spend several days in 1 spot the more amp hours the better. If 3 group 24 batteries give you more amps than 2 group 27's and you can afford it go for more amp hours. Connecting cables should be as thick as possible 4,2,0,00 gauge and just slightly longer than needed to make the connection with the battery box covers or tie downs in place 1 maybe 2 inches per cable. Buy 2 inverters if you are going to do small and big loads 400w for tv, computer, tablet, cell phones and a 2000w for the microwave, coffee pot or toaster. Harbor freight has a 2000w for 129.00 this month add 24 month plan for like 30 bucks and you can tell in 2 seasons if the investment is worth a $600+ inverter. there is a whole lot more to it but short simple sweet is as many amp hours per dollar spent as possible and thick connecting cables in as short of runs as possible.
