“2) Solar panel on RV, to keep RV battery charged (to fire up generator) but will it be enough charge to run things in RV and start generator, to either boon-dock or plug in home freezer in outage?”
“Running things” needs a battery or batteries....amp hours. Recharging batteries from solar panels requires adequate solar watts. Standard is one solar watt per battery amp hour. More if in a shady area.
