I started with 200W based on my current power usage... I have plenty of roof space and can always add more. Just felt this was a good starting point and now that all the hard work is done, if I need to add a few more panels, it will be fairly easy.
Many people carry along a portable genny as a back-up charging source.
I already have 3 generators and feel I need to use at least one of them :B, so im using only 100w which works a lot of the time because of my use.
I think 200w is its a good amount of solar to start. As you said, you can always add more, it's nice that you have that option but depending on all the previously mentioned factors, you might not have to.
You have to do things on an as needed basis otherwise we will all spend a fortune on all this neat rv stuff and some of it might not be necessary. Baby steps :C
