hey thanks so much for more of your posts.... thats what i was looking for... wanted to hear what people are doing. i wouldnt be anywhere i would have to use the air conditioner.... i'm good with good cross ventilation.
thats the whole reason to be living on wheels.... when the weather gets too hot or too cold... i am ABSOLUTELY OUT of there !
what i am looking to do is run my computer.... maybe use the microwave..... have the TV on and power the DVR and all those systems.
and ...i want the fridge to be run by
solar... i dont want to use any propane. AND i want to be able to plug in
my electric coffee pot when i am not outside cooking over a fire.
the only thing that would run full time of course would be the fridge/freezer.
otherwise.... most things would be on one at a time along with the fridge
and the lights. lol
money aside....would 1000w be enough to do that ? with the requisite number of
batteries ?....let me know what you think.
please dont tell me about propane.... i know all about that and i dont want to use it. people keep trying to steer me to propane... and i just dont want to use it.... i have the money to do solar right... and thats what i want.
PLUS.... i wont be anywhere the sun isnt shinning mostly all the time.
why not ? thats what living on wheels is all about. lol
thanks so much for your opinions. i am for sure going to have someone i trust
make sure i have what i need. but i would like to hear what you think.
since i cant post the same post in the boondocking section.... i'll mention it later on to see what else people have to say.
thanks
