I have to few lose ends to tie up but overall it came together good. The system will eventually have up to 5 panels totaling 800 watts and 4 EGC2 batteries. I have not yet decided if that will include...

Wires on the roof need to be covered. PWM and parallel install (?) complicates the wiring, and those red-black cables probably don't have same level of UV protection as MC4 cable.
I think leaving generator home will be doable, where you are. As long as you don't need A/C. Or there is no snow on the panel :)...
You'll probably end up not using tilting often. Too much pain unless you stay put for a week or longer. 800W is a lot of solar, and you are not that far North.
I plan on using Eternabond to cover the wires. Just waiting for the tan color to get here. The white on the roof would really stand out, which is what I have. Yeah, I'm not sure how often I will tilt the panels, but it's nice to have that option. 800 watts is a bit, but I don't really like the Dometic fridge I have and am really contemplating putting in a residential down the line. We are fairly power hungry too.
