Is this a possibility?
Have a portable self contained 12 volt solar generator with 4ea 6 volt full river batteries. My RV currently has 2ea 12 volt house batteries and a separate 12 volt battery located near the on-board on...

Here are the components of my solar generator:
1) TM-2025-RV Battery Monitor Package - pkg includes 35ft of wire and 500amp shunt
2)Morningstar ts mppt - 45amp mpt charge controller
3)Caster Wheels - on bottom of generator so it can be moved
4) Batteries - 4ea 250 ah full river 6 volt
5) Samlex PST-2000-12 Pure Sine Inverter
6) IOTA Battery Charger - 12V 55A - If I need to use a generator this charger should charge the batteries more quickly.
7) solar panels - 2ea - 270 watt monocrystalline from Solarworld
Is this something you've assembled yourself? Or purchased as a package?
That is a good list of components IMO, and what you propose I believe will work, with the exception of running an A/C. That is not enough battery capacity to run an A/C for long, and not enough solar capacity to replace the state of charge in a day. I think that inverter would run a 12.5 A/C just barely. It is a 2kW continuous, 3.5kW surge. 500AH of battery won't sustain that for long.
