But I need to confirm that the overnight load is reasonable and that the solar can replenish what I use.
Any propane appliance has a solenoid that uses power to open the propane feed while it is "ON". Or.....it shuts the gas off if the power goes dead. These can draw more than you might think.
IIRC, some solar controllers can actually draw a small bit of power back out in the dead of night.
The inability of a battery to give back what charge it has is one sign of wearing out......or being really cheap to start with.
