We have a 185W solar panel, 150AH AGM battery, which powers XM radio, TV, Waeco refrigerator. There are a couple of aspects to being able to use solar successfully, generation, solar. Conservation use LED lights, we use computer case fans in place of Fantastic Fan, TV powered by 300W inverter. What we do not use is anything using resistant heat, we use a french press for coffee the propane stove or grill for cooking. We spent 8 days on the north shore of Lake Superior. I monitor state of charge with a Vicron battery monitor and at the end of 8 days we were are 64% SOC using only solar.
