Let me start by saying I’m a solar novice. I have two 6 volt batteries for a total of 235 amp hours. I’m able to run lights, watch TV and run the furnace intermittently and my batteries go down to about 70%. About 3 hrs of lights and TV. I have 200 watts of solar and on a sunny day no problem getting back to 100%. I find it pretty cool now tjat I have it all hooked up.
