Who has Solar/ what controller/panels?
I read about MPPT vs PWM.. OK I understand.. But cost wise and from what I read here on this site, is a 250watt 24V panel from solar blvd and a PWM 30 amp controller is a cheap option. $170 fo...

I was thinking of doing an invertor to the RV panel somehow.Yes, you don't want to just have a hack job from inverter to load center. It usually isn't necessary because you can either plug your shore cord into the inverter or install a transfer switch.

If you're now thinking of powering all of your 120V devices with the use of an inverter, I'd suggest to do some more research about the power needs of such a system. I think you'll quickly find out that 8 amps from a solar module and just a battery or two isn't going to cut it.
Jim in Denver is one of the more adept and experienced solar users on the Forum. You could search through his posts to see how solar is implemented correctly. (Jim, you've got my address, just send the usual check ;) ).
